how to solve piles problem without operation - #39617
I am struggling with this piles problem and it’s seriously affecting my life. Like, a few weeks ago, I noticed bleeding during bowel movements, and at first, I thought it was just a minor thing - you know, bad food or something. But then the pain started getting worse, and it’s so uncomfortable, especially when I sit for long periods at work! I’ve tried some over-the-counter creams but honestly, they don’t help much. I really don’t wanna go for surgery or anything drastic like that – I’m scared of it, to be honest. Is there any advice on how to solve piles problem without operation? Like, are there any herbal remedies or dietary changes that could actually help? I heard that Ayurveda might have solutions for this kind of thing but I’m a bit overwhelmed by all the information out there. Do I need to change my diet?? I’ve been eating more fiber, but it seems like nothing is really working. I mean, it’s frustrating because I really want to fix this naturally without going under the knife. Any tips or personal stories would be super helpful! Thx in advance!

In addressing piles, Ayurveda indeed provides several non-surgical ways to manage and potentially alleviate this condition by focusing on dietary changes, herbal remedies, and lifestyle adjustments that work in harmony with your body’s natural processes. Hemorrhoids or “arsha” in Ayurveda often relate to an imbalance in Vata and Pitta doshas, requiring a tailored approach to restore balance.
First, diet plays a crucial role. It’s great that you’ve started eating more fiber; continue with this, but be sure to include a variety of fiber-rich foods like whole grains, fresh fruits, and leafy greens which can help to maintain regular bowel movements and soften stools, reducing strain during bowel movement. However, avoid excessive spicy, oily, or heavy foods as they might increase Pitta, exacerbating the problem. Additionally, incorporate ghee in your meals which can soothe inflamed tissues and aid digestion.
For herbal support, Triphala is a classic Ayurvedic formula known for its mild laxative properties and ability to support digestive health. Mixing a teaspoon with warm water before bed can aid in regularizing bowel movements. Also, apply a paste of Turmeric and Aloe Vera gel on the affected area; both have anti-inflammatory properties that may provide relief from pain and swelling.
Stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day to ensure proper bowel function. You can also sip on warm herbal teas, such as ginger tea or fennel seeds boiled in water, to aid digestion and counteract Vata imbalance.
Regular movement is essential as well – try not to sit for prolonged periods; take short breaks to walk around or stretch, which can improve circulation and relieve pressure on the anal area. Yoga poses like Malasana (Garland Pose) or Viparita Karani (Legs-Up-the-Wall Pose) can help improve blood flow and reduce discomfort.
Remember to focus on maintaining good toilet habits; don’t delay if you feel the urge to go, and avoid straining. Simple practices, such as a squatty potty to elevate your legs slightly can help reduce pressure on hemorrhoidal veins.
Finally, while it’s understandable to feel apprehensive about surgery, if symptoms worsen or if the condition is severely affecting your quality of life, consultation with a healthcare provider is crucial. Piles can sometimes require more intensive treatment, but these natural approaches can offer support and alleviate symptoms in many cases.
