What is Haemorrhoids (Piles)?
Haemorrhoids, also known as piles, are a cluster of veins surrounding the anus and rectum which cause bleeding under pressure. They are similar to varicose veins, which cause the swelling.
The Surgeon removes these swellings and bulges through the surgeries or laser.
Internal Haemorrhoids:
They are placed inside the rectum, and the patient cannot feel or see them. They cannot hut but only bleed during the bowel movement. When they slip through the anus, it is called prolapse.
External Haemorrhoids
These are formed under the skin near the anus. They can cause itching, burning and sometimes hurt too. When the blood clot forms inside it is called a very painful thrombosed haemorrhoid.
Prolapse:
When an internal haemorrhoid comes out through the anus. It can happen during a bowel movement. It may go back in on its own. Or you may need to push it back. In severe cases, it stays out.
Grading of Haemorrhoids Treatment:
Doctors grade haemorrhoids from I to IV. This helps them choose the right treatment.
| Grade | Description |
| Grade I | Bleeding but no prolapse. Haemorrhoids stay inside the rectum. |
| Grade II | Prolapse during bowel movement. Goes back in on its own. |
| Grade III | Prolapse during bowel movement. Needs to be pushed back in. |
| Grade IV | Prolapse stays out. Cannot be pushed back in. |
Symptoms of Haemorrhoids:
Common symptoms include:
- Rectal bleeding
- Anal pain
- Pruritus ani
- Swelling
- Discomfort
- Thrombosis
Causes of piles:
The following are the main causes of the piles:
- Sitting for a long time on the toilet.
- Obesity can also be the reason of the piles.
- Pregnancy.
- Low fibre intake.
- Lifting of heavy objects.
- Straining during bowel movement.
When to See a Doctor?
Do not wait until the pain is unbearable. See a doctor if:
- You see blood in your stool
- You have persistent anal pain
- The itching or discomfort does not go away
- A lump does not shrink after a few days
Diagnosis: How We Find Out What You Have
At Elive Clinic, we use a step-by-step approach to diagnose your condition.
Digital Rectal Examination (DRE):
Our doctor inserts a gloved finger into your rectum to check for lumps, swelling, or tenderness.
Anoscopy:
In this process, A small, lighted tube is used to look inside the anus. This helps see internal haemorrhoids.
Proctoscopy:
It is done with a longer tube is used to examine the entire rectum. This gives a full view of the area.
Colonoscopy:
If your doctor suspects other issues, they may recommend a colonoscopy. This checks the entire large intestine
Treatment options:
If you have milder piles from grade 1 to 2, then you must follow the tips below:
Conservative Management:
- Take a high-fibre diet.
- Take plenty of water, 8-10 glasses a day.
- Take a stool softener to make bowel movements easier.
- Do a sitz bath in warm water for 20 minutes, 2 times a day.
- Manage pain by taking painkillers.
In-Office Procedures:
For grade 2 and some 3 cases are often Outpatient Procedures:
Rubber Band Ligation (RBL):
The doctor places a tiny rubber band around the base of the haemorrhoid. The band cuts off blood flow. The haemorrhoid shrinks and falls off in a few days. This is simple, effective, and done in the clinic. No general anaesthesia needed.
Sclerotherapy:
The doctor injects a chemical solution into the haemorrhoid. This causes it to shrink and scar. It is quick and painless. Good for smaller haemorrhoids.
Infrared Coagulation (IRC):
The doctor uses infrared light to burn the haemorrhoid tissue. This causes it to shrink and form a scar. It is a quick, outpatient procedure.
Treatment options: surgical:
For the moderate cases of grade 3 and grade 4 piles, our Best Piles doctor in Dubai offers the following options:
Laser Haemorrhoidoplasty (LHP):
This treatment is minimally invasive, in which the surgeon uses a laser device to shrink the haemorrhoid with no cutting and no stitches. The recovery of this treatment is faster.
Hemorrhoidal Artery Ligation (HAL):
In this technique, the surgeon finds the arteries which supply blood to the haemorrhoid and ties them off to cut off the blood flow, which makes the haemorrhoid shrink quickly to its normal size.
Conventional Haemorrhoidectomy:
This Surgery is known as traditional surgery, in which the doctor extracts the haemorrhoid by cutting and in the end, making the stitches with more recovery time.
LigaSure Procedure:
This procedure is done by using the latest energy technique, which is done to seal the blood vessels by reducing the bleeding during the surgical time and is often combined with the haemorrhoidectomy.
Harmonic Scalpel:
In this procedure, the doctor uses ultrasonic energy to seal or cut the tissue, which helps in the reduction of bleeding.

- The grade of your haemorrhoids
