I've been dealing with piles for a year now and tried allopathic treatment but it didn't help. The itching, burning, and pain are worse at night. Is surgery a good option for this condition?

In recent years, Infrared Coagulation has emerged as a revolutionary treatment for hemorrhoids. IRC is a minimally invasive procedure that uses infrared light to effectively eliminate hemorrhoids at the source. The technique is relatively simple yet highly effective.

I'm having a tough time dealing with pain after using the washroom for about a month now. I saw my GP, and he diagnosed me with a fissure and gave me some meds like CiploxTzH and Rinifol, plus Smuth Laxative and Anovate cream. A week later, the pain was a bit better, but I got worried and went to see a surgeon. He said I've got a fissure and two Grade III piles, with a lump outside the anus, and suggested surgery. Surgery freaks me out, so I got a second opinion from another surgeon. He also mentioned surgery but said it's not too urgent unless things get worse. He gave me 2Dilgel for the fissure. But when I use it, there's this terrible burning sensation around the lump. He said it should get better in 2-3 days. Is 2Dilgel really good for both fissures and piles? Also, is it okay to use coconut oil internally for fissures? What should be my next steps?

yes u can take 2.. dilgel .

I've had both external and internal piles for 3 days now with transparent sticky mucus discharge. The lump near my anus stays swollen and hard outside with mild pain and itchiness. Should I consider surgery at this point and how can I stop the mucus discharge?

As a doctor, I’d suggest starting with conservative treatment like high-fiber diet, plenty of fluids, warm sitz baths, and topical creams (like hydrocortisone or lidocaine). The mucus discharge and swelling often improve with these. Surgery isn't usually needed this early unless there’s severe pain, bleeding, or persistent prolapse. Do consult a surgeon if symptoms worsen or don’t improve in a week.
