For constipation and for external piles: 1. Continue increased fiber intake. 2. Add fruits, dry fruits to diet 3. Drink 3 liters of boiled cooled water. 4. Include yam and buttermilk to your diet.

Medicines: 1. Pilex fort tablets(himalaya) 1—0----1 after breakfast and dinner for 60 days 2. Pilex ointment(himalaya) for application to pile mass 3. Anuloma DS(sagar) 0—0----1 at bed time with water whenever you face severe constipation.

Hello I get how tough this must be. It sounds like your stress, nerves, constipation, and piles are all feeding off each other, which is not fun. The upside is, you can totally turn this around with the right moves.

YOUR CONCERN

Based on what you’re saying, it looks like:

1. Vata is imbalanced (the main issue) – Feeling worried and overthinking – Tense nerves in your hands and feet – Poop schedule all over the place

2. Apana Vata is acting up –Major constipation –Piles starting –Not-so-great blood flow in your bum

3. Pitta’s getting involved –Piles that bleed –Burning feeling –Irritation

So basically, it’s a problem with your head and your gut not playing nice.

HERE’S THE AYURVEDA PLAN (Gets to the root of it all)

A. Calm Out Your Nerves (Stress & Worry)

* Brahmi Vati – 1 tablet, twice a day after you eat * Shankhpushpi Syrup – 2 teaspoons at night * Jatamansi Capsule – 1 at night

What this does: * Calms your mind * Eases panic and nerve tension * Helps you sleep

B. Fix the Constipation (Super Important)

* Triphala Churna – 1 teaspoon before bed with warm water * Isabgol – 1 teaspoon with warm milk at night * Cow Ghee – 1 teaspoon a day

This will: * Soften things up * Get your bowels back on track * Keep piles away down the road

C. For Piles (Bleeding + Swelling)

* Abhayarishta – 20 ml, twice a day after meals * Pilex Tablet / Arshoghni Vati – 2 tablets, twice a day * Pilex Ointment – put it on the spot, twice a day

This cuts down on: * Bleeding * Swelling * Pain

WHAT TO EAT (AND NOT EAT) (THIS IS HALF THE BATTLE)

Avoid: * Tea/coffee * Bakery stuff and fried foods * Eating late at night * Dry snacks

Include * Warm water when you wake up * Papaya, soaked raisins * Steamed veggies * Buttermilk with cumin

YOGA & BREATHING (You Need This)

Do this daily: * Anulom Vilom – 10 minutes * Bhramari – 5 minutes * 30-minute walk

This will seriously drop your stress levels, like 40–50%.

THESE ARE MUST-FOLLOW RULES

🚫 Don’t push when you’re on the toilet 🚫 Don’t sit there for long time 🚫 Don’t hold it in

Sit in a squat position when you go.

It’s not just about the piles. It’s your mind and gut being out of sync. If you don’t chill out, the constipation will be back. If you don’t fix the constipation, the piles won’t get better.

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate
