What are the best surgical options for grade 4 hemorrhoids? I've heard medication might not be enough, but can ayurveda or homeopathy actually cure it? Worried about the pain and recovery time if surgery is needed.

I'm 56 and have had an inguinal hernia on my right lower abdomen for 2 years now. I really want to avoid surgery can ayurvedic or homeopathic treatments help? I live in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh could you suggest the best doctor for this?

While Ayurveda and homeopathy may offer symptom relief, they generally don't cure hernias and may not be a long-term solution for inguinal hernias. Hernias typically require surgery for a permanent fix.

I'm dealing with a Pilonidal sinus and I've got two openings that bleed anytime I lie down to sleep. It's pretty worrying. Could you advise me on what treatments are available or what I should do?

pilonidal sinus depends on the severity of the condition and the type of symptoms: No symptoms: Pilonidal disease that doesn't cause symptoms doesn't need treatment. Antibiotics: If the infection is spreading or you have another illness, antibiotics may be prescribed. Drainage and packing: A pilonidal abscess can be opened, drained, and packed with gauze. Surgery: Surgery is often the only way to treat the cause of the abscess and remove infected tissue. This is called an excision. Laser surgery: A minimally invasive procedure that uses a laser to seal the sinus tract after draining pus.
