Sitting Long Hours Led to Piles Then Came the Cure With Homeopathy

A male patient of age 35 years (Patient ID: 39685) approached the Life Force Homeopathy Bangalore clinic with the complaint of piles and fissures in ano on 23rd March 2019. He has presented with pain and burning in the rectal area for many months. He has issues of constipation and hard stool. The patient suffered from bleeding issues along with digestive disturbances on and off.

He was very much worried as he was afraid to have any kind of food items, as sometimes there is aggravation of the complaints.

He had many anxiety issues and explained the issues in detail. The ailment started from the issues of gastritis, such as indigestion, bloating of the abdomen, heartburn, regurgitation of food items, and sour eructation, and took acute medicines for the same and got some temporary relief.

Later on, he developed indigestion as a serious problem and has issues of constipation. He has some intolerance to some food items and was avoiding them in his daily diet pattern. He had a mixed food pattern, and because of these kinds of gastric issues, he avoided non-vegetarian food items mostly.

His line of work was having a vegetable market, and he used to sit in the seat for long periods. Later on, he developed a slight burning sensation while passing stool very rarely. Later on, he was experiencing a slight itching feeling in the anus region, especially while sitting for a longer period. So, while he was having non-vegetarian food items, he was experiencing more of these symptoms.

These symptoms became very common, and he was experiencing many difficulties while passing stool with burning and intense pain while passing stool and in the post-voiding period. Then, occasionally, he experienced bleeding per rectum, which is a significant symptom of piles/hemorrhoids.

Let''s have a look at a diet that helps with piles for overall recovery:

If you''re dealing with piles, also known as hemorrhoids, making some changes to your diet can go a long way in easing your symptoms. First and foremost, it''s crucial to increase your fiber intake to help soften your stool and make it easier to pass. Foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes are excellent sources of fiber. Additionally, staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water can also aid in keeping things moving smoothly. It''s important to avoid foods that can exacerbate inflammation or irritate your digestive system, such as spicy foods, caffeine, alcohol, and processed snacks. Lastly, incorporating more probiotic-rich foods like yogurt or kefir can help promote healthy digestion. By being mindful of what you eat and making smart choices, you can significantly improve your comfort levels when dealing with piles.

Personal generals:

He was very mild and gentle. Soft-spoken, he behaved very politely and gently explained the details. He was slightly anxious as he had fear that his complaints may progress to any kind of malignancy. His doubts were cleared in detail and convinced him not to be worried.

Dr. Shah studied the case in detail and prescribed homeopathic medicines for the patient. The patient was guided with a healthy diet pattern and was advised to take a good amount of water per day along with medicines prescribed.

Follow-up details:

First follow-up:

• After taking medicines for the first two months, the patient was relieved from the continuous burning and pain sustained in the rectal region. The gastric issues and sour eructation, along with heartburn intensity, frequency, and severity, were reduced with the first dose of medicines.

Second follow-up:

• The gastric issues were reduced a lot with the 4 months of medicines from Life Force. There was a major reduction in the intensity and severity of acidity and bloating of the abdomen. Heartburn issues have been completely relieved. The bleeding per rectum that was occurring on and off has been relieved, and the patient was so relieved that he could find significant improvement in his overall health. After 4 months, he got relief from about 50 % of the complaints.

After 8-12 months:

• The patient was very happy and joyful after the treatment period of 8 months. There has been no relapse of the issues in the last 3-4 months. We have advised him to take care of it along with the homeopathic medications. Anyway, he was advised to continue the medications for a longer period to completely get rid of the conditions and not to have any relapses in the future.

The patient was so happy and thankful to Dr. Rajesh Shah and the whole Life Force Homeopathy team as he has been relieved from the ailment that was disturbing his daily work and personal life a lot.

Homeopathic remedies for piles:

Homeopathic remedies like Aesculus hippocastanum or muriatic acid can help reduce swelling and discomfort. By taking these remedies in tiny doses, you can target the root cause of your piles and provide long-lasting relief. Plus, since homeopathy focuses on treating the person rather than just the symptoms, you''ll get a personalized treatment plan that''s tailored specifically to your needs.
