I've got fourth-degree piles with really bad bleeding, pain, and itching it's so uncomfortable I can barely sit or walk sometimes. Right now, I'm using diltigesic gel and taking hamamelis mother tincture, but nothing's helping. The pain and bleeding won't stop. Should I consider surgery, or are there other non-surgical treatments that might work better?

While lifestyle changes and some home remedies can offer temporary relief, they don't address the underlying cause of the prolapse
