I've been experiencing some discomfort recently, especially when I'm sitting for long periods. I noticed a pimple-like bump near my anus, and it hurts when I touch it. I'm worried this might be piles, but I'm not entirely sure. I've read online about self-care options, but I'm not sure what to do. Can you help me figure out if this is piles or something else, and suggest any creams or treatments? I've also attached a picture for reference.

It's generally safe to take cefadroxil and azithromycin together, as they work against different types of bacteria and have different mechanisms of action.
However, it's essential to consult your doctor or surgeon before taking both medications, as they may interact or increase the risk of side effects.
Inform your doctor about the azithromycin you've already taken and the remaining doses.
They will assess the situation and provide guidance on whether to continue with the azithromycin and cefadroxil concurrently.
Follow their instructions carefully to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Monitor yourself for any adverse reactions or side effects while taking both medications.

View allI think I might have piles in the early stages and I'm wondering if laser surgery is the right option for me at this point or if there are other treatments I should consider first
For mild or early-stage piles, non-surgical treatments are usually recommended first, and laser surgery might be considered later if those don't work or if the piles are more severe. Laser treatment offers advantages like minimal pain and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery.

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.
