What Are Piles?
Piles are vascular structures in the anal canal that helps control stool. Piles can become a problem when they become swollen or inflamed. Piles can be classified as follows based on their location:
- Internal piles: Develop inside the rectum; usually painless (but can cause bleeding);
- External piles: Located just under the skin around the anus; can be painful, sore, itchy, and can create swelling.
Common Causes of Piles
Understanding the underlying reasons for piles is crucial for effective prevention and treatment. Some common causes include:
- Chronic constipation or straining during bowel movements
- Sitting for long hours, especially on hard surfaces
- Low-fiber diet and inadequate water intake
- Pregnancy, due to increased pressure in the pelvic area

Why Ayurvedic treatment for piles?
Modern medicine will often recommend surgical intervention for piles that are moderate to severe. Ayurveda takes a different approach by focusing on treatment of the cause of the disease rather than just treating the symptoms. Treatments using herbal medicine, diet, and purification procedures are more aligned with the goals of Ayurveda.
Some advantages of Ayurvedic treatment of piles, as opposed to surgery, are:
- Non-Surgical & minimally invasive
- No serious side effects
- Holistic treatment for complete and permanent healing
- Focuses on preventions and correction of lifestyle
