Suffering From Piles. Fiber Supplement Suggested. Is It Safe To Go For The Surgery?

Hi Doctor... I am suffering from second degree piles. I got myself checked from a Surgeon who advised me to use supplement containing fibers. Now I feel the problem has increased because I feel continuous burning, discomfort and sometimes itching. I asked doctors for operation as I want to get rid of it, but he told me that operating piles has some complications. Could you tell me the better treatment for this... Thanks.

Hi,
As you got second degree piles may not require surgery.
In third and fourth degree piles surgery is required.
Change your food habit.
Take more veggies and diet containing more fibers.
Take plenty of water.
Avoid constipation as this is main problem for giving bleeding.
Take mild laxative at night.
Avoid fried, chillies and junk food.
Apply local antibiotic, antipruritus cream.
Ok and take care.
