Suggest Treatment Options For Piles

Dear Doctor, My mother who is 58 years old is having piles problem from past 1 month.Having consulted doctors at Command Hospital,they have suggested surgery as the option.But the feedbak recived by me is that these surgeries cannot assure you of NO recurrence.They have given medicines to subside the pain and are suggesting that once the pain subsides they would conduct an operation.
Please suggest me the best option and if their are any better alternatives.If you could also suggest me an doctor who would provide good guidance, i would be more than greatful for the advice.Please suggest.
