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've been dealing with really bad piles and heard thuthi leaf might help but I'm breastfeeding my 4-month-old is it safe to take? I don't want surgery, what else can I try for relief?

Thuthi leaf lacks safety data in breastfeeding. Try stool softeners, high-fiber diet, and topical creams. Sitz baths can provide good relief without surgery.

I'm experiencing this strange pain in my bottom when I sit for a long time. It really burns, but interestingly, when I stand, run, or sleep, the pain goes away. I don't feel any pain or see blood when I go to the toilet, although I am dealing with a little constipation. There's no blood or pus in my stool either. Some people are telling me it might be piles, others say it could be fissures or maybe even a fistula. I'm really confused and would appreciate some guidance on what this might be.
