Effective Prolapsed Piles Treatment at GEM Hospital

What Are Prolapsed Piles?

Strangulated piles or strangulated piles are piles where internal hemorrhoids which are swollen come out through the rectum. This leads to irritation, pain and even bleeding when using the lavatory or passing stool. Even though piles are not dangerous, they can cause significant discomfort and impact your life’s functioning.

Stages of Prolapsed Piles

• Stage 1: At this stage the piles are still internal and may be asymptomatic or manifest as itching, discomfort or light bleeding after bowel movements. The hemorrhoids have not yet gone beyond their normal position outside the anal opening.

• Stage 2: At this stage, the hemorrhoids may prolapse, that is, they slip out through the rectum during defecation but can retract back on their own. Side effects may include increased incidences of bleeding and pain which may be more pronounced.

• Stage 3: In stage 3, the hemorrhoids prolapse and cannot be manually reduced. However, they can be manually inserted into the rectum, in case they pop out. These signs like pain, itch and bleeding become worse and it is common to seek medical help.

• Stage 4: This is the worst stage where the hemorrhoids do not retract and cannot be pushed back into the rectum. They may stay within the rectum, which causes severe pain, itching, and raises the probability of such complications as thrombosis or infection. Surgery is usually the only intervention needed at this stage of the disease.

Causes of Prolapsed Piles

Prolapsed piles are caused by pressure build up in the rectal veins and this pressure leads to swelling and protrusion of the veins. Here are the main causes:

• 1. Chronic Straining and Constipation: One of the main reasons is that one frequently strains to pass stool due to constipation. It places undue stress on the rectal veins and erodes the tissue that holds the rectum in place thus causing prolapse.

• 2. Pregnancy and Childbirth: Pregnant women are at a higher risk of developing prolapsed piles because the weight of the uterus during pregnancy and the physical stress of childbirth increase pressure in the rectal area.

• 3. Obesity and Sedentary Lifestyle: Obesity leads to pressure on the veins in the abdomen and rectum. Also, this condition will be aggravated by sitting for long hours or lack of physical activity because it slows the blood circulation in the lower part of the body.

• 4. Aging and Weakening Tissues: The tissues which support the rectal veins also degenerate with age hence making the older persons more susceptible to piles. This is made worse by diseases such as chronic diarrhea or low fiber diets that put pressure on the bowel.

• 5. Heavy Lifting and Physical Exertion: Frequently lifting weights also raise the intra-abdominal pressure, and this is a common cause of piles prolapse.

If the causes are well understood, it is possible to reduce the chances of developing prolapsed piles or even make them worse through effective dietary changes, regular exercising and avoiding cases of straining for long.

Comprehensive Diagnosis and Evaluation

Prolapsed piles treatment starts with the correct diagnosis of the disease. At GEM Hospital, our specialists will perform a thorough evaluation, which may include:

• A physical examination

• Review of medical history

• Proctoscopy or colonoscopy to determine the degree of piles or hemorrhoids

Such a thorough assessment guarantees that we suggest the most appropriate treatment plan based on your state.

Available Treatment Options for Prolapsed Piles

At GEM Hospital, we offer a wide range of treatment options for prolapsed piles, depending on the severity of the condition:

• Lifestyle Modifications: In the initial stage, piles which have gone prolapsed can well be treated by simple measures such as change of diet, increased intake of fiber and water to ease pressure on the piles.

• Medications: Creams and pain killers that are bought without a prescription may be prescribed to alleviate symptoms such as itching and pain.

• Non-Surgical Treatments: These are Rubber band ligation and sclerotherapy which aim at making the piles shrink by blocking their blood supply.

Advanced Surgical Techniques at GEM Hospital

In more serious situations, however, surgery may be needed. GEM Hospital specializes in advanced surgical techniques for prolapsed piles, including:

• Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy: The principle of this operation, which is relatively noninvasive, is to resect prolapsed hemorrhoids and reduce their size.

• Hemorrhoidectomy: A procedure that involves the surgical removal of the piles when they have prolapsed or other conservative measures cannot work.

Our specialists do all they can to make the surgery as less invasive as possible so that the patient can recover faster and with little or no pain.
