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'm dealing with these recurring anal fissures, and it's really uncomfortable. Right now, they're not active, but I'm worried about them coming back again in the future. I've heard Ayurveda can help, and I'm interested in treatments that might stop this from happening. Any advice on what to try?

I've got grade 3 and grade 4 piles but they don't hurt, and there's no bleeding when I use the bathroom. However, after I'm done, I have to push the grade 3 piles back in. I'm wondering if there's any medication that can actually cure hemorrhoids. Is that possible?

It will reduce, sometimes surgery also needed.
