Piles is the common term for the ano rectal disease called haemorrhoids. It dates back to early history of humans when we started walking on erect posture. Piles in simple terms denotes the swollen veins in the anus and rectum. It can affect anyone but people with continuous sitting habit & chronic constipation are more prone to developing it. In most of the cases, it is a long-term disease with flare up periods and normal conditions in between. Piles causes pain, bleeding, itching and many other discomforts along with constipation or diarrhoea. Most of the people with piles also suffer from digestive disturbances and compromised immunity. There are many medications and treatments available for piles now. But regular follow up and a healthy lifestyle are compulsory to avoid recurrence and complications.

Physiopathologie
Constipation and prolonged straining are widely believed to cause haemorrhoids because hard stool and increased intra-abdominal pressure could cause obstruction of venous return, resulting in engorgement of the hemorrhoidal plexus. Defecation of hard faecal material increases shearing force on the anal cushions.
Diagnostic
External haemorrhoids can be seen during a physical examination.
Diagnosing internal haemorrhoids might include examination of anal canal and rectum.
- Digital examination of anus and rectum with fingers
- Visual inspection with proctoscope or other instruments
Traitements
In haemorrhoids with mild or negligible discomfort, creams, ointments, suppositories or pads are recommended. These products contain ingredients such as witch hazel, or hydrocortisone and lidocaine, which can temporarily relieve pain and itching.
External Haemorrhoid Thrombectomy
If a painful blood clot (thrombosis) has formed within an external haemorrhoid, the haemorrhoid should be removed surgically, which can provide prompt relief. This procedure is done under local anaesthesia.
Minimally Invasive Procedures
For persistent bleeding or painful haemorrhoids, other minimally invasive procedures are available that don’t usually require anaesthesia.
Rubber band ligation – one or two tiny rubber bands are placed around the base of an internal haemorrhoid to cut off its circulation. The haemorrhoid withers and falls off within a week.
Haemorrhoid banding can be uncomfortable and cause bleeding, which might begin two to four days after the procedure but is rarely severe. Occasionally, more-serious complications can occur.
Injection (sclerotherapy) – A chemical solution is injected into the haemorrhoid tissue to shrink it. While the injection causes little or no pain, it might be less effective than rubber band ligation.
Coagulation (infrared, laser or bipolar). Coagulation techniques use laser or infrared light or heat. They cause small, bleeding internal haemorrhoids to harden and shrivel. Coagulation has few side effects and usually causes little discomfort.
Surgical Procedures
If other procedures haven’t been successful or in large hemorrhoids, any one of the following surgical procedures are recommended:
Haemorrhoid removal (haemorrhoidectomy)
Hemorrhoid stapling (stapled hemorrhoidopexy)
Pronostic
Piles tend to have a long-term course if not treated on time. But most of piles resolve spontaneously or with conservative medical therapy.
Complications
- Thrombosis
- Secondary infection
- Formation d'abcès
- Ulceration
- Incontinence
- Anaemia in bleeding piles
