What Should I Know About Ayurvedic Treatment for Piles and Its Effectiveness? - #22087

Genesis

I am dealing with some not-so-fun issues lately, and it’s been really tough. So, like, I've been experiencing these painful burning sensations in the area which could be piles, ugh. It started a few weeks ago after I had some spicy food – I know, right? My stomach is usually okay but this time it just kept getting worse. I thought it was just a phase, but then I noticed blood when I went to the bathroom, which was super scary!! 🤯 I talked to my friend who suggested I look into ayurvedic treatment for piles. I’m honestly a little confused about it though. Is ayurvedic treatment for piles something that actually works? I read somewhere about using turmeric and fenugreek. Are those hints effective or just old wives tales?? I've also been thinking about dietary changes, but I’m not sure what foods are good or bad. Like, I’ve tried increasing fiber, if that helps? I don’t want to rely on Western medicine if I don’t have to, but I just can’t be in discomfort all the time. I guess this is where the ayurvedic treatment for piles comes in, right?🤷‍♂️ Are there specific herbs or practices that could help while avoiding any surgeries? How long does an ayurvedic treatment for piles usually take to show effects? I’ve read mixed reviews online and I’m just anxious about choosing the right path. Any insights on this would be amazing! Thank you!

In ayurveda piles are considered as a result of Agni Mandya (DIGESTIVE FIRE IMBALANCE) and factors like constipation, spicy food, straining during bowel movements, sedentary life style and stress

1) Abhayarista- 20 ml with equal water after food twice a day
2)Arshoghna vati- 1 tab twice a day with Buttermilk
3) triphala churna- 1 tsp at bed time with warm water
4) nagkeshar churna- 2 gms with ghee twice daily after food
5) kasisadi tail- external application twice daily external pile mass after cleansing with warm water

If chronic / severe case - like large mass bleeding may go for KSHARASUTRA THERAPY

diet - warm water with lemon
DAILY STRICTLY BUTTERMILK WITH RASTED JEERA POWDER
ghee in food
soaked raisin and figs

 AVOID- spicy,oily fried foods
red meat'
tea/coffee alcohol

fenugreek soaked overnight and taken on morning help digestion and reduce inflammation
 initial relief - 5-7 days
bleeding reduction- 7-10 days
shrinking of pile mass- 2-4 week 
chronic case may take long time

do follow this and see magical results

Dealing with piles can be quite uncomfortable, and it's great you're considering Ayurvedic approaches. Let's dive into it. Piles, also known as hemorrhoids, can indeed be assessed through Ayurvedic treatment, focusing on the root cause and your body's dosha balance – mainly pitta or vata imbalances. The burning sensation you experiencin' is often linked with an excess of pitta dosha, leading to inflammation.

Turmeric is lauded in Ayurveda for its anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce swelling and discomfort. Simply mix half a teaspoon with lukewarm milk or water, consuming it daily. Fenugreek, often used for digestive health, can aid in reducing strain during bowel movements. Try soaking a teaspoon of fenugreek seeds overnight and consume them in the morning.

Diet-wise, you're spot on about increasing fiber. Soluble fibers from fruits like apples and pears, or whole grains like quinoa or oats, can prevent constipation—a major aggravator for piles. Hydration is vital too, keeping the digestive tract smooth. Avoid spicy foods, caffeine, and alcohol as they can exacerbate the condition.

For herbs, Triphala is a potent remedy in Ayurveda. This blend of three fruits purifies the body and works gently as a laxative, alleviating strain. Take it with warm water before bed. External application of sesame oil or coconut oil can soothe irritation and support the healing of local tissues.

Results from Ayurvedic treatment vary; some notice improvements in weeks, while for others it may take a few months depending on severity. It's essential to be consistent and patient.

While Ayurvedic methods can be beneficial, ensure that any significant pain or bleeding is monitored by a healthcare professional to rule out other conditions. Surgery is an option for persistent cases, though with the right approach, many find relief naturally.

Consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner to tailor these recommendations to your specific dosha and lifestyle.. Avoiding strain and keeping stress in check also support your healing journey. Give it a try, and hopefully, you'll find the relief you need.
