I've been dealing with thrombosed external hemorrhoids and really want to avoid surgery if possible. Are there effective home remedies to treat them when they're still at a normal stage? What can I do at home to help them heal faster?

My husband had laser surgery for grade 1 piles and a fissure two months ago but still bleeds around 10-15 drops with brown discharge every time he passes stool.

Question 3

I'm a couple of days post-operation for piles and now I'm dealing with a fever, along with some cold symptoms and body pain. Is this something that just happens sometimes, or should I be worried that it's more serious?

Accepted Answer

Bathing after eating fruits like mango and banana is generally safe.

No specific gap is required, but consider:

1. _Digestion time_: Wait at least 30-60 minutes after eating to allow for digestion.
2. _Blood sugar levels_: Fruits like mango and banana can cause a temporary spike in blood sugar. Bathing shortly after may lead to:
    - Dizziness
    - Lightheadedness
    - Shivering

To be cautious:

1. Wait 1-2 hours after eating fruits before bathing.
2. Take a warm shower instead of a cold bath to avoid shocking your system.

No serious health issues will arise from bathing after eating fruits. However, being mindful of digestion time and blood sugar levels can ensure a comfortable bathing experience.

That could be hemorrhoid,visit your general surgeon for evaluation and appropriate management,donot attempt to scratch it or push it back inside.
