I'm dealing with piles and my surgeon recommended surgery but I'm really confused about which procedure to choose. Some doctors say laser surgery is the best option while others suggest staple surgery or even traditional surgery. Can you help me understand which one would be most suitable for my condition? I'm worried about making the right decision

It's understandable to feel overwhelmed when choosing a surgical procedure for piles. The best approach depends on your individual condition and preferences. Laser surgery offers a minimally invasive option with benefits like less pain, faster recovery, and reduced bleeding, making it a popular choice. Stapler surgery, or stapled hemorrhoidopexy, is another option that can be effective for certain types of piles, particularly those involving prolapse. Traditional surgery, or open surgery, is still an option, but it generally involves larger incisions and a longer recovery time.

I've been having a burning sensation around my anus during bowel movements. A BAMS doctor suggested surgery but I'm not sure I want to go through with it. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? What could be causing this issue?
A burning sensation during bowel movements can be caused by several factors, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, infections, or even dietary irritants. While surgery might be an option for certain conditions, there are often non-surgical approaches that can provide relief and address the underlying cause. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional, ideally a proctologist or gastroenterologist, to determine the specific cause and receive appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with thrombosed piles for about 15 days and also have 1st grade piles. Doctors recommended surgery but I'm wondering if there are any medications that could help instead
While surgery might be recommended for thrombosed hemorrhoids and first-degree piles, several non-surgical options, including medications, can help manage symptoms and potentially resolve the issue without surgery. Thrombosed hemorrhoids often resolve on their own within a few weeks.
