What is the effective treatment for my bleeding piles?

Question

Hello doctor,

I am a 37-year-old male. Last few days I am suffering from hemorrhoids near the external region of the anus. It is paining very badly with some bleeding while passing the stool. My anus has become tight and swollen. Usually, I do not suffer from hemorrhoids but once or twice a year I suffer from hemorrhoids. Why does it happen? What to do? I lifted some water jars, is it due to lifting heavy jars?

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your query and can understand your health concern. Hemorrhoids are a chronic condition that needs proper treatment; otherwise, they continue to increase with time. As you have mentioned that you also have pain, so it could be a fissure. I suggest you consult a surgeon so a proper proctoscopic examination can be performed to determine what it is and, if it is hemorrhoids, which grade.

Sometimes it also needs surgery in advanced stages. So examination is necessary.

Drink plenty of water.
Avoid sitting in one place for a long time.
Avoid spicy, oily food.
Take plenty of fiber in your diet in the form of green leafy vegetables, whole grains, oats, salads, etc.
Avoid tea, coffee, junk food, and soft beverages.
Avoid smoking and alcohol if you are used to it.
Do a sitz bath twice daily. It will give you some relief.
Try to avoid constipation by taking some laxative syrup at bedtime.
You can apply 2 % Diltiazem gel in and around the anus twice daily.

I hope this has helped you.

Thank you.
