I went to a general surgeon for constipation and noticed a small flesh near my anus. After a proctoscopy, she said I have grade 1 piles inside and a fissure outside. She suggested laser surgery for both as a permanent solution but I'm unsure if it's necessary since grade 1 piles can often be treated without surgery. Is laser surgery risky or should I consider other options first?

do all requred lab report first to understand risk and progress.

I've been dealing with really bad bleeding from piles since giving birth, and I'm currently breastfeeding my 3-month-old. Can I safely use factu ointment, along with magnesium sulphate powder and glycerin? What else can I do to stop the bleeding?
