Soaking in Warm Water
Commonly known as Sitz Bath or Kati Snaana in Ayurveda, this technique of soaking the rectal area in warm water for 15-20 minutes can give significant relief in the pain and inflammation. You can choose any utensil at home for this or buy specialized containers from a medical store. Certain ingredients may be added to the warm water for better relief which will be suggested by a doctor.
Consuming & Applying Castor Oil
Castor oil (Erand Oil) has properties that eases bowel movements and lubricates stool. Take 3 ml erand oil in milk every night 30 minutes before bed. You can also apply castor oil on the affected area for relief in pain and inflammation.
Turmeric & Milk Ointment
Mix 1 tablespoon turmeric in half a cup of milk (preferably cow’s milk) to make a soothing ointment for the affected area. You can apply the lotion every day on affected area with a cotton swab.
In advanced stage, passing stool can become a dreadful experience. If not treated, piles cause bleeding and prolapse out of the anus. The best advice to prevent pain is to take early action and get Ayurvedic treatment at the initial stage. To talk to Jiva doctor, book your consultation now.
