Treatment for piles comes in many forms and if you suffer from piles/hemorrhoids, then you have most likely tried various methods. Even if you have just recently started noticing lumps then is good to know that there are many different treatments for piles and I will be going over the most popular methods as well as exposing some unknown truths about each treatment.

The first and most popular type of relief is what your doctor usually subscribes: creams and ointments. This treatment for piles requires you to rub the treatment on your outer rectal area and is meant to help soothe the blood vessels and therefore make it easier to pass stools. The treatment will help relax the tissue and reduce the bulging and limit flare ups. This method is the most common for a temporary relief, but this won't stop it completely.

Another very popular treatment comes in the form of suppositories. These are placed into the rectum in order try moisten the piles and hence create a lubricating effect for when passing a stool. This will help heal the piles as it reduces the chance of rupturing the hemorrhoid. This type of treatment is again temporary and has to be carried out regularly and does not work well for everyone.

The third type of treatment for piles is to take pills to help control your body's blood pressure. This helps to tighten the vein tissue and hence reduce problems around the rectum. This is a very popular treatment amongst the larger pharmacies because they can be very effective however the truth about this treatment is that they can induce some very real side effects. The severity of these depends on the individual, so it's best to try them out first.

These are the most common types of treatments although there is cryotherapy and surgery for more extreme cases. The treatment depends more on the individual and how much one can withstand. My opinion is to try the safer options above and exhaust all of these before agreeing to the more extreme measures.

The cold hard truth is that even with surgery the problem can still return and be a pain to live with in the long term. My experience with piles has also been a long one and I am thankful to have come across a solution that has surprised me pleasantly.

I would recommend this totally natural remedy that works within a few days. It has become very popular form of alternative medicine and is great for people that want a treatment that they can do from home without dealing with doctors and specialists.
