Can piles be treated without surgery? I'm experiencing severe pain and bleeding during bowel movements and looking for homeopathic treatment options. Are there any good homeopath doctors you'd recommend for piles?

Yes, piles (hemorrhoids) can often be treated effectively without surgery, especially in the early stages or with milder symptoms. Non-surgical treatments include lifestyle changes, home remedies, and various medical procedures. If you are experiencing severe pain, it's important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan

If you suspect you have piles (hemorrhoids), several non-surgical treatments can be used to manage pain and swelling. These include home remedies, over-the-counter medications, and office-based procedures like rubber band ligation or sclerotherapy.

I'm dealing with a small pimple or boil right at the opening of my anus, and it's making it hard to pass motion, especially when I'm constipated. I also notice that eating spicy food sometimes causes pain during bowel movements. Can you advise me on which type of doctor I should see about this?

You may be experiencing a condition known as an anal abscess or a hemorrhoid. To help with the pain and discomfort, you can try using over-the-counter stool softeners like Colace (docusate sodium) to ease bowel movements. You can also apply over-the-counter hemorrhoid cream like Preparation H to the affected area to reduce inflammation. However, it is important to consult a surgeon for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
