I'm dealing with an anal fissure and I'm on ayurvedic treatment for it. I'm wondering if it's okay to add Nifecaine cream to my routine since my current ayurvedic regimen doesn't include any kind of ointment. What do you think? Is it safe to combine both treatments?

Every winter I get piles with no bleeding but a lot of burning and they keep coming out often. Should I consider surgery or will medicines work for this?

For recurrent prolapsed hemorrhoids with burning, even without bleeding, you should consult a doctor to determine the best course of action. Surgery is not always necessary, but it might be considered if conservative treatments like lifestyle changes and medications don't provide relief or if you experience significant complications.

I have both internal and external hemorrhoids but no pain or itching yet One doctor recommended surgery for a permanent fix Should I get surgery right away and if so which method is best hemorrhoidectomy stapled hemorrhoidectomy PPH rubber band ligation or lateral internal sphincterotomy Or should I stick with meds for now

While having both internal and external hemorrhoids can be a concern, the presence of pain and/or itching may not always necessitate immediate surgery. A doctor's recommendation for surgery, especially a permanent fix, should be discussed thoroughly considering the severity of symptoms and the potential benefits and risks of different surgical options. If you are experiencing no pain or itching, and hemorrhoids are relatively small, non-surgical treatments like rubber band ligation or sclerotherapy may be considered first. Surgical options like hemorrhoidectomy, stapled hemorrhoidectomy (PPH), or lateral internal sphincterotomy are usually reserved for more severe cases or when other treatments have failed
