Had piles laser surgery 2 months back but now having trouble with bowel movements feels like anal stenosis since I strain a lot and need multiple bathroom trips to fully empty. Sometimes there's slight bleeding too. What could be going on?

I've been dealing with piles for the last 10 years and even had surgery at Stop Piles. But now, I'm feeling the pain again. What should I do? Is there something else I can try to find relief?

The common reason for piles is constipation. It is among those who are involved in jobs that require sitting for long hours. People who do not indulge in any form of exercise and movement of the body are more vulnerable to piles.

I'm 21 and dealing with external piles. I haven't been able to talk to my family about it because it's embarrassing, and now they're interfering with getting a government job. It's been about 6 months since I've had any symptoms like bleeding, pain, or itching, but the lump around my anal area still isn't going away. I do get constipated now and then. What should I do about this, and how can I get rid of the lumps?

I'm having a tough time with this burning and itching around my anus, and there's even blood when I go to the bathroom. I noticed a small piece of tissue or something external there, and it's really painful when I pass stool. The discomfort lasts all day, making it hard to sit or walk. After seeing the doctor, they mentioned it looks minor and focused on easing my constipation with some ointment and syrup to soften the stool. That part's a bit better now, but the opening feels too small, and this external pile makes it difficult when I go to the bathroom. I dealt with piles about two years ago, and medication helped within a few weeksit hasn't been an issue until now. I'm really eager to find a permanent solution for this external issue. Any advice on the best approach to tackle this?

To help with the pain, itching, and burning, you can use Preparation H ointment to reduce inflammation and discomfort. For permanent relief, you may need to consider a surgical procedure called hemorrhoidectomy to remove the external pile. In the meantime, continue using the ointment as directed and maintain soft stools with the syrup provided by your doctor. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.
