Information on Piles

Questions on Piles: From the last two days I'm getting blood in my stools even some blood drops come in the toilet after passing stools. I don't have any pain or irritation or any thing else. Are these the symptoms for piles?

Internal piles often bleed and there are no other symptoms - if you are concerned have them checked to ensure there are no other problems - proprietary creams to shrink internal or external piles can be useful to get them under control, ice placed on piles and even internally will help shrink them too. Chestnut is the homeopathic remedy of choice being Aesculus 6x - hatha yoga also helps this complaint, high water intake, no constipation - all these help. Constipation and straining often cause piles and this is dietary dependent - a healthy diet gives a healthy gut. Drinking strong tea whether as chai or with or without milk is one of the causes of piles so drink something else for a while to give them a rest. There is also a pressure point right at the top of the head which when stimulated will give relief - find the crown of the head and see if you can locate a sensitive spot there and rub it hard morning and night. Start the day with a big drink of pure water at least a litre.
