Majorly patients go to the other alternative medicines like ayurveda, homeopathy, unani or Siddha and other things. They will try to make the symptom less with those syrups or powders. But as the disease progress they come to the surgeons. We surgeons always offer them the permanent treatment. Of course there are complications or the recurrences that may happens. But majority of the people get very good result with the laser. The laser surgery is the latest surgery for the proctology.
St. Theresa’s hospital is having a well equipped laser unit as well as the consultants who are doing laser surgery exclusively for the ana proctology and varicose veins. So this lasers
are going to be used to treat the piles where it is going to coagulate and immediately it is going to disappear and in the fistula tracts as well. It is almost like a minimally invasive surgery or minimal kind of the surgery so there is less pain and early recovery is possible and patients can go home next morning to their offices also. The only thing
they have to be carefull about is about the hygiene at that area and antibiotics especially in the fistulas and as well as diet or the lifestyle modifications
