Hello and welcome to HCM,
Blood loss from the piles is responsible for low hemoglobin levels.
After treatment of piles, the chronic blood loss has got relived.
I would suggest you to get a complete hemogram and peripheral blood examination to assess the status of red blood cells and /or type of anemia.
After characterizing the type of anemia, appropriate treatment will be started.
In case there is iron deficiency anemia, iron supplements will help.
In case there is megaloblastic anemia, vitamin B 12 and folic acid will help.
Iron deficiency is expected since there was loss of iron during blood loss from piles.

Thanks and take care
