What Are Piles?

Piles (hemorrhoids) are common swellings that form inside and around the anal canal. There is a huge network of small veins within the lining of the anal canal. These veins sometimes become wider with more blood than usual. As a result, the swollen veins and overlying tissue may develop into one or more swellings (piles).

Types Of Piles

Piles can be classified into two main types based on their location within the rectum and where the swollen veins form. The types include:

  1. Internal piles

    Internal piles form inside the anal canal but might hang down and come out of the anus. They are graded based on the location within the rectum and where the swollen vein develops.

    • First-degree piles may bleed but don't come out of the anus.
    • Second-degree piles come out of the anus during defecation but go back inside on their own afterward.
    • Third-degree piles come out of the anus and only go back inside if you push them back in.
    • Fourth-degree piles hang down from the anus, and you can't push them back in. They can get swollen and painful if the blood inside them clots.
  2. External piles

    External piles are swellings that grow further down the anal canal, closer to the anus. They can be extremely painful, especially if they have a blood clot.

    It is possible to have both internal and external piles simultaneously.

How Is Piles Diagnosed?

A proctologist can easily diagnose piles based on medical history and a physical exam. In addition, they can diagnose external piles by inspecting the area around the anus. Your proctologist can also conduct a digital rectal exam to diagnose internal piles. In this diagnostic test, the doctor inserts a gloved, lubricated finger into the rectum to look for abnormalities in the anal canal and rectum. They can also perform procedures like anoscopy and rigid proctosigmoidoscopy to inspect the rectum and anus.

  • Anoscopy- An anoscopy is a technique that uses a small tube called an anoscope to view the lining of the anus and rectum. Your doctor will inspect the tissues lining the anus and rectum for signals of lower digestive tract problems and bowel disease.
  • Rigid proctosigmoidoscopy- It is a technique that uses a proctoscope to view and examine the lining of the rectum and lower colon. The doctor will examine the tissues or blood vessels lining the rectum and lower colon to look for signals of lower digestive tract problems and bowel disease.

What Are The Various Options To Treat Piles?

Depending on the severity, piles are graded from grades 1 to 4. Generally, grade 1 and grade 2 piles can be treated without any surgery, while grades 3 and 4 require surgery for treatment. Treatment for piles can be surgical and non-surgical.

Non-Surgical Treatment

Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical procedure to treat piles. In this procedure, you will be given injections to help shrink the piles. Rubber band ligation is also a non-surgical option in which the piles are tied off at their base with rubber bands, cutting off the blood flow to them.

Surgical Treatment

Your doctor might recommend one of the other surgical procedures for persistent bleeding or painful piles. The various surgical options include:

  • Closed hemorrhoidectomy- Closed hemorrhoidectomy involves the excision of piles bundle using a sharp instrument, like a scalpel, scissors, or electrocautery, followed by complete wound closure with an absorbable suture.
  • Open hemorrhoidectomy- In an open piles surgery, piles tissue is excised in the same manner as in a closed surgery, but here the incision is left open.
  • Stapled haemorrhoidectomy- Stapled haemorrhoidectomy is a daycare procedure where there is no cut or wound on the outside, and the piles mass is removed with a unique device called a stapler.
  • Laser surgery for piles- Laser surgery is one of the most advanced and less painful procedures for piles treatment. A laser beam is used to shrink the piles mass, and there is no pain or wound. You can go home the same day and resume routine activities the next day.
