Due to other associated diseases like colitis, diarrhoea etc.

Symptoms:

Mass prolapse per anum

Mucous secretions from piles masses

Prevention:
Avoid straining during defecation
Take plenty of fibres in diet like vegetables and fresh fruits to prevent constipation
Drink plenty of water (5-6 litres/day)
Consult an Ayurveda Physician or specialist if there is bleeding or pain

Ayurvedic Treatment: In Ayurveda there is effective blood controlling and constipation medicines. These should be used by consulting a qualified physician. If prolapse is more (2nd or 3rd degree piles), kshara sutra ligation of piles masses is recommended. It’s a minimally invasive parasurgical procedure employed to cure anorectal diseases like; Piles, Fissure or Fistula in ano etc. in an effective way. Specialists’ consultation is advised before going for kshara sutra therapy.
