subject: Hemorrhoids Surgery - Make The Wrong Decision And Live To Regret It [print this page] I would hazard a guess that if you've suffered from piles, many treatments just haven't worked for you. Well, this article will give you the down-low on all the avenues you have when it comes to treating hemorrhoids.
Some treatments may be hot topics and disputed, bu let the results speak for themselves. Further, you'll get a betgreatter idea of whether the specific treatments will be deserving of your time for your unique circumstance.
Ointments and Creams
Piles creams and ointments are applied to the region of illness and provide relief and relaxation.
Let me note, however, that long-term relief is not a feature of creams and ointments. While relief is fast, you are absolutely going to have piles again at some point.
Deal breaker? That's up for you to determine.
If speedy relief is of very high importance to you, and you don't have the current time to try any prescription based solutions, then creams are certainly a good 'drive thru' option before you get a consultation with your doctor.
Suppositories
Suppositories are a hit and miss route to take. The function of suppositories is to lessen friction within the anal passage. They are pushed in until contact is made with the piles.
In my experience, you'll have some people that find them very good, and some that see no difference whatsoever. Of course, the result you get is relative to how bad your piles are.
They're not too expensive so can give them a go if you're in search of fast relief. However, like creams and ointments they are not long-term treatments.
Pills
Piles tablets modify your blood pressure. If taken consistently they build up the strength in your veins, thereby decreasing your risks with piles.
However, even though relief comes quickly and they can prove more long term than the previous two solutions, there are side effects such as nausea - as if you're suffering enough - and once your piles have gone, and you've stopped the medication, piles can come back in time.
Surgery
This is the last stop on 'curing hemorrhoids'. Have you attempted everything else? Then debate on surgery. If you have been suffering from hemorrhoids for a long time and have seen your doctor then surgery may be needful.
Be aware that it does come with a host of side effects (as it seems with everything) See here:
-Permanent weakness in the area of operation
-Possible hypersensitised reactions to surgical intervention.
-Operating mistakes
Type of Surgery/ Further information
- Rubber Band Ligation: In this technique small rubber bands are applied to the base of the hemorrhoid, basically suffocating the hemorrhoid.
- Sclerotherapy: An agent (either liquid or foam) is injected into the offending varicose vein, sealing off blood flow.
- Cryotherapy: In cryotherapy, liquid nitrogen is introduced to the area. Immediately, bloodflow through the hemorrhoid is stopped and it's healed.
- Infrared coagulation: This approach burns the piles. While a little painful it's very fast.
- Hemorrhoidectomy: This solution can be painful but it is extremely effective at getting rid of piles. I urge you try all natural remedies first.
Non-Fixative Treatments For Piles
Natural antidotes are simple to be applied at home and keep the hemorrhoids of becoming worse or of recurring after permanent procedures. See below:
I should say, though, Lidocaine isn't a life-long route for hemorrhoids-free living.
- Highly fibrous diet -- There is no higher endorsement than this approach. Eat a consistently high in fiber diet and a universe of health problems will fly directly over you.
- Pilewort -- For external piles, this ought to be be your first port of call - A super herb against the pains of external hemorrhoids. This commonly comes in ointment form, but you can also drink it as a mug of tea.
- Emu oil: Another option for you if you suffer from external hemorrhoids. Emu oil stiffens the muscles and mitigates pain.
- Sitting baths: These are always endorsed by doctors before any more dangerous treatments. Three times a day run a little bath of lukewarm water deep enough to dip the diseased area in. Take a breather for about fifteen minutes every time.
Finally, pepper the water with salt or baking soda, and tip in some essential oils to work their miracles.
