### Understanding Piles (Hemorrhoids)

Piles are swollen and inflamed blood vessels in the anal canal and rectum. They are classified as:

- **Internal piles** – Inside the rectum (usually painless but cause bleeding)

- **External piles** – Outside the anus (can be painful and swollen)

- **Prolapsed piles** – Internal piles that come out

- **Thrombosed piles** – When a blood clot forms, causing severe pain

**Common causes:**

- Chronic constipation or straining

- Prolonged sitting

- Low-fibre diet

- Pregnancy

- Obesity

- Heavy lifting

**Symptoms of piles:**

- Bright red bleeding during or after stool

- Pain or discomfort

- Itching or irritation

- Swelling or lump near the anus

- Mucus discharge

- Feeling of incomplete evacuation

### Understanding Anal Fissure

An anal fissure is a small tear or cut in the lining of the anal canal. It is extremely painful, especially during and after passing stool.

**Types:**

- **Acute fissure** – Recent tear, usually heals with proper medical treatment

- **Chronic fissure** – Present for more than 6–8 weeks, often needs intervention

**Common causes:**

- Passing hard stools

- Chronic constipation or diarrhoea

- Childbirth

- Inflammatory bowel disease (in some cases)

**Symptoms of anal fissure:**

- Sharp, severe pain during and after defecation

- Bright red blood on stool or toilet paper

- Burning or spasm in the anal area

- Itching

- A small skin tag (sentinel pile) in chronic cases

### Medical (Non-Surgical) Management

Many patients with early piles and acute fissure improve significantly with proper medical treatment. Dr. Karan R. Rawat first evaluates whether conservative management is possible.

**For Piles (Grade 1 & early Grade 2):**

- High-fibre diet and adequate water intake

- Stool softeners and laxatives (when needed)

- Topical creams and ointments

- Sitz baths (warm water soaks)

- Lifestyle changes – avoid straining and prolonged sitting

- Office procedures in selected cases (rubber band ligation, sclerotherapy)

**For Anal Fissure (Acute):**

- High-fibre diet and stool softeners to keep stools soft

- Topical medicines (diltiazem, nifedipine or nitrate ointments) to relax the sphincter and improve blood supply

- Sitz baths 2–3 times a day

- Pain relief medicines

- Avoidance of constipation

A large number of acute fissures heal completely with disciplined medical treatment within 4–8 weeks.

### When Surgical or Laser Treatment is Needed

Surgery or laser intervention is recommended when:

- Medical treatment fails

- Piles are Grade 3 or Grade 4

- Recurrent or heavy bleeding

- Severe pain affecting quality of life

- Chronic anal fissure lasting more than 6–8 weeks

- Presence of large external component or skin tags

- Thrombosed piles causing extreme pain

### Laser Treatment for Piles and Fissure – Modern Preferred Option

Laser surgery has transformed the treatment of piles and fissure in recent years. At Safe Gastro & Surgery Center, Dr. Karan R. Rawat offers advanced laser procedures that are preferred by most patients.

**Advantages of Laser Treatment:**

- Minimal post-operative pain

- Very little bleeding

- No large cuts or stitches in most cases

- Day-care or short hospital stay

- Faster healing and return to normal activities

- Lower risk of infection

- Better preservation of sphincter function

- Excellent results in carefully selected patients

**Laser for Piles (Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty):**

The laser energy shrinks the piles from inside, seals blood vessels, and reduces the size of the hemorrhoidal cushions with minimal tissue damage.

**Laser for Anal Fissure:**

Laser helps in precise debridement of the fissure edges and can be combined with controlled sphincter relaxation techniques when required. In suitable cases, it offers quicker pain relief compared to traditional methods.

### Traditional Surgical Options

When disease is advanced or complex, Dr. Rawat also performs:

- Conventional hemorrhoidectomy (open or closed)

- Stapler hemorrhoidopexy (in selected cases)

- Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS) – the gold-standard surgery for chronic fissure that does not respond to medical treatment

The choice of procedure is always individualised after proper examination.
