What is piles?

Piles are an anorectal condition leading to inflammation of hemorrhoids in the anal or rectum. While piles are common for men and women, people over 50, overweight people, and pregnant women are at a higher risk of developing them. Piles can be managed with medication and home remedies in nascent stages; however, surgical and medical interventions are required later. Pristyn Care has impaneled some of the best hospitals which employ USFDA-approved, advanced treatment procedures to treat piles. These procedures are also minimally invasive, thus assisting the patient in recovering quickly. In addition, we have some of the best proctologists on board to help our patients in their treatment journeys. They have over 8-10 years of experience treating piles and other disorders of the lower intestinal tract. Additionally, they perform advanced laser surgeries with high success rates.

What Happens During Piles Laser Treatment?

Piles Diagnosis

In the case of external piles, the doctor can diagnose them with a physical inspection. However, in case of internal hemorrhoids, the proctologist will perform a digital examination to insert a gloved, lubricated finger into the rectum to check for abnormal growth. Additionally, to correctly diagnose internal piles, the surgeon may choose a proctoscope, an anoscope, or a sigmoidoscope to examine the lower rectum.

Piles Treatment

Laser-assisted surgery for piles is one of the most efficient treatment methods. During the procedure, a focussed narrow beam of light is used on hemorrhoid to ablate or shrink it without affecting the surrounding tissues. It is an advanced, minimally invasive procedure that aids the patient’s faster recovery.

How to Prepare For Piles Laser Surgery?

It is essential to follow all instructions given by your doctor to ensure that your post-surgery recovery process is on track.

  • Let your doctor know in advance if you’re allergic to any medications.
  • Avoid heavy meals the night before the surgery.
  • Avoid drinking and smoking a week before the surgery.
  • Eat a light meal on the day of the surgery. Avoid heavy foods that are high in fats and carbs.
  • Ensure you have someone to accompany you back home after your surgery since you may still have some after-effects of anesthesia.

What is the Recovery Process of Piles Laser Surgery?

The recovery from piles laser surgery may differ for individuals. However, it takes about 30-45 days to recover completely.

  • First, ensure that you keep the surgery site clean to avoid infection.
  • Take sitz bath regularly.
  • Avoid lifting heavy weights as that adds additional strain to the surgical site.
  • Eat meals that are nutritious and high in fiber content. Avoid oily and spicy foods.
  • To ensure you are hydrated, drink at least 8-10 glasses of water every day.
  • Do not strain yourself during your bowel movement.
  • If your bowel movements are hard, consider taking stool softeners to alleviate the strain (only after consulting the doctor).
  • Be diligent about taking medications and applying ointments/creams prescribed by your doctor.

Benefits of Laser Surgery Treatment For Piles

The following are the benefits of piles laser surgery treatment:
  • Minimal Bleeding & Pain: There is minimal blood loss during laser surgery and reduced pain post-surgery since the laser only targets a specific area.
  • Improved Precision: Laser surgery imparts precision by targeting smaller areas without damaging the surrounding tissues.
  • Day Care Surgery: Piles laser surgery is a day care surgery, i.e., you will be discharged the same day unless the doctor deems otherwise.
  • Shorter Recovery Time: Since it is a minimally invasive procedure, the recovery time is much lesser.

Benefits of minimally invasive laser treatment for varicose veins?

Undergoing advanced Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins is more advantageous as compared to traditional varicose veins surgery. Some of them are-

  • The advanced varicose veins treatment is performed with a minimally invasive technique, which has tiny incisions.
  • Advanced varicose veins treatment has a faster recovery duration compared to traditional varicose veins surgery.
  • The chances of bleeding are very minimal than the conventional surgery approach.
  • The success rate is higher and better than traditional surgery techniques.
  • Advanced varicose veins treatments are performed on the outpatient procedure, where you can go home on the same day of the surgery.

What are the common after-care tips for varicose veins treatment?

The following are some common tips that can help you in smoother recovery duration post varicose veins treatment-

  • Avoid sitting or standing for a prolonged period as it will affect blood circulation. Take regular breaks and stretch your legs frequently to keep the blood flowing.
  • Elevate the legs to make it easier for the veins to pump blood in the upward direction. You can elevate your legs while sitting or sleeping.
  • Try losing weight and maintaining a healthy weight to minimize the pressure inside the blood vessels.
  • Quit smoking entirely and stop using other tobacco-based products as they damage the blood vessels and make them weaker.
  • Staying physically active will also improve blood circulation throughout the body.
  • Wear compression stockings if you have to stand or sit for prolonged periods due to work.

Can home remedies treat varicose veins?

Not really. But, some common lifestyle modifications can help you prevent varicose veins from occurring or becoming worse-

Is Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins painful?

No. Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins is performed under the influence of anesthesia which makes the procedure completely painless.

What is the duration of varicose veins treatment?

The duration of Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins usually takes 35-45 minutes. However, the complete procedure may take 1 to 2 hours based on the severity of the varicose veins and the amount of area that is affected.

What is the success rate of varicose veins treatment?

The success rate of varicose veins treatment is 90%-95%. Our skilled vascular surgeons perform varicose veins surgery with extreme precision and expertise.

Do the home treatments for varicose veins actually work?

Home treatments, such as exercise, compression stockings, diet changes, etc., can manage the symptoms caused by varicose veins. However, these remedies will neither eliminate the existing veins nor prevent the new ones from forming.

Case Study

Ms. Roohi Gupta(changed name) complained about enlarged, bulgy, and blue-colored veins in both legs but much darker in the right one. She is a teacher and her profession includes standing and sitting for long periods regularly. She contacted us and informed our medical coordinator about fatigue and pain in her legs.

The medical coordinator booked her appointment with one of our expert vascular surgeons, Dr. Sanjit Gogoi. She had a detailed video consultation with the doctor. Dr. Gogoi scheduled a physical examination for diagnosing the severity of the varicose veins. During the diagnosis, Dr. Gogoi noticed redness around the affected area because of varicose veins. He further recommended a few diagnostic tests including duplex ultrasound to rule out any underlying disease.

After getting the results of the diagnostic tests, Dr. Gogoi advised Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) to get rid of damaged and enlarged veins. He scheduled the surgery for later in the week. It was an outpatient procedure that took approximately 45 minutes. Once the was stable and showing regular vitals, Dr. Gogoi discharged her and she went back home on the same day of the surgery. He scheduled a follow-up consultation to check the progress of recovery post-surgery. Ms. Gupta reported no sign of pain and swelling and recovered well.

What is the cost of Varicose Veins treatment in India?

Case Study

On average, varicose veins surgery costs Rs.50,000 and may go up to Rs. 70,000. Multiple factors influence the total amount you’ll have to pay for the surgery. The type of surgery to be performed may also lead to a difference in the total cost.

Endovenous Laser Ablation Therapy (EVLT) for varicose veins will typically cost you anywhere between Rs. 45,000 to Rs. 2,00,000 in most parts of the country.

The variation in the cost can be attributed to several factors, including:

  • Consultation fees of the doctor
  • The city and hospital you’re getting treated at
  • Charges of preoperative lab tests
  • The severity of the condition & associated risks
  • Hospitalization charges (if required)
  • Nursing charges
  • Cost of pre and post-surgery medicines
  • Post-surgery care & support

Treatments for Varicose Veins

Endovenous laser therapy ablation

Also known as endovenous laser treatment or EVLA, this is a minimally invasive ultrasound-guided procedure that involves the use of ultrasound images and laser fiber in order to kill the delicate lining of the veins. After a few days following the procedure, the body absorbs the dead tissues, closing off the abnormal veins with minimal or no discomfort. This is one of the most commonly preferred methods as it involves far fewer complications, and the recovery time, as well as the success rate of this method, is much faster and higher than that of any surgical process.
