How Can Painful Bleeding Piles With Constipation Be Treated?
Hi my14 year old son has painful piles that bleed. The doctor has given him some glucose syrup which is helping (only second day of taking the glucose) but I would like to know why he is so constipated. I am very careful with making sure that he eats plenty of fruit and veg and drinks lots of water. He is very slim and does lots of sport. Please can you help?

Hello,
For hemorrhoids:
- Apply an over-the-counter hemorrhoid cream or suppository containing Hydrocortisone
- Use pads containing witch hazel or a numbing agent
- Soak regularly in a warm bath or sitz bath. Soak your anal area in plain warm water 10 to 15 minutes two to three times a day
For constipation:
- Take senna tea
- Use laxative
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
