where does piles occur - #36941
I am really confused about something that’s been bothering me for a while now. I’ve been dealing with these pains and discomfort in my lower abdomen for what feels like ages! After a visit to the doc, they mentioned that I might have piles. I kinda panicked and started reading up on it, but it’s left me with even more questions. Where does piles occur exactly? Like, is it specific to a certain area, or can it happen anywhere? The doc said something about internal and external piles, but I kinda zone out on the technical terms. It’s like my brain can’t wrap around it when I’m nervous. I know the bleeding and itching are the worst, which makes sense. But I’m also worried — how did I even get this? Was it from too much sitting, or something else? Also, I’m not a big fan of medications, and honestly, I wonder if Ayurveda can help. Like, what natural remedies could I use? Is there a certain diet I should stick to or avoid? If anyone’s been through this, or knows where does piles occur and how it can be treated naturally, I could really use some advice! Thanks in advance!!

Piles, also known as hemorrhoids, typically occur in the anorectal region - basically around the anus or inside the rectum. Understanding the difference between internal and external piles can help. Internal piles are situated inside the rectum, and they are generally not visible, often painless but can cause bleeding. External piles, on the other hand, develop around the anus and can be painful and itchy, as you’ve noted those symptoms too. The itching and bleeding, you mentioned, are indeed very common with external piles.
As for how this condition arises, piles often develop due to increased pressure in the lower rectum. This could be from sitting too long, straining during bowel movements, chronic constipation or diarrhea, obesity or even a low-fiber diet. Even pregnancy can increase this pressure due to the weight of the baby.
Ayurveda offers several natural remedies to alleviate the symptoms of piles. Start by monitoring your diet closely. Make sure to increase fiber intake with fruits like papaya, vegetables like sweet potatoes, and whole grains to aid digestion. Drink plenty of warm water throughout the day to soften stools. Consuming a teaspoon of Triphala powder with warm water before bed can help regulate bowels, easing the strain on piles.
Applying coconut oil or aloe vera gel locally can relieve the external irritation and itching. Ayurvedic herbs like Haritaki, Amalaki and Turmeric are known for their digestive and anti-inflammatory properties. You might consider consulting with an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner to determine which of these are best suited for your prakriti (constitution).
And remember, avoid sitting continuously for extended periods, try to stand or walk around regularly. Engaging in simple yoga poses like malasana (garland pose) or viparita karani (legs-up-the-wall pose) can help maintain healthy bowel movements and relieve pressure on the rectal area. If any symptom escalates or persists, do check in with your healthcare provider to ensure there are no complications.
