Piles is a painful condition characterised by inflammation in the lower rectum. Common symptoms of piles include blood in stools, itching in the anal region, constant pain, and discomfort. Piles can be a chronic or temporary condition, and nearly every individual experiences the symptoms of piles at a certain point in their life, for a short or long duration. However, the risk of developing piles increases with age because the tissues supporting the rectum and anus become weak.
Piles are caused by several reasons, including but not limited to:
1. Excessive Straining While Emptying Bowels: Excessive straining can cause the veins around the anus to swell and become inflamed, making it difficult to pass stools without bleeding or pain.
2. Chronic Constipation: Constipation is one of the primary causes of piles and fissures. Chronic constipation may lead to frustration and straining too hard to empty your bowels.
3. Obesity: Being obese has its own set of challenges and health implications. For example, most obese people who suffer from constipation are highly likely to develop piles over time.
4. Being pregnant: Pregnancy can cause chronic constipation and complications in the pelvic area, making it difficult to pass stools without prolonged straining, which may lead to piles.
5. Regular Heavy Lifting: Lifting heavy weights may put a direct strain on the pelvic and anal region, causing the veins around the anus to swell. Not only does it cause piles, but it may also lead to bowel incontinence.
6. Eating a low-fibre diet: Lack of fibre in your diet leaves the intestine lining hard and dry. Because of poor lubrication in the intestines, it becomes difficult to pass stools without straining, leading to piles and fissures.
7. Eating Too Many Spices: Eating too many spices may not be an underlying cause of piles, but it can worsen an existing condition. For example, eating lots of spicy food can irritate the rectum during bowel movements, causing extreme pain and discomfort.
Although Ayurveda for piles can help manage piles, in case of extreme pain and bleeding, a doctor’s advice is advisable. Also, proper diagnosis is key to your treatment because piles are of different types, and each type requires a specific treatment procedure. If you can’t identify the symptoms, consider consulting with a physician.
According to Ayurveda, piles, fissures, and the digestive concerns leading to them are associated with the three Doshas, namely Vata, Pitta and Kapha. As Ayurveda suggests, each individual has a bi-doshic nature, so the qualities of two doshas are more dominant than those of the third.
Depending on the Dosha dominance in your body, your digestive concerns may vary.
For example, concerning piles, the condition usually crops up due to low Vata and Pitta levels. Most Ayurvedic medicines for piles work towards optimising the Dosha levels and ensuring that Agni (the body’s digestive fire) is improved and working efficiently.
Speaking of the various digestive functions, Vata Dosha governs the body’s movements. Hence, Vata levels in the body determine whether the bowel movement is healthy. Being a dry Dosha, Vata’s aggravation can increase the dryness of the bowel contents, causing improper movement and leading to constipation.
This constipation is rough, leading to painful black haemorrhoids when aggravated. Pitta Dosha is hot and, when in excess, can cause diarrhoea, excessive thirst, and inflamed bleeding haemorrhoids. Similarly, Kapha Dosha is cold and heavy, and its aggravation can lead to large light-colored haemorrhoids.
