Laser & Stapler Piles Treatment in Mumbai
Advanced laser haemorrhoid treatment with minimal pain and 1 day treatment.
What is Piles?
Piles is a very common condition in the anal/rectal area. It happens because of swelling of the soft tissue cushions inside the anal tract.
These anorectal cushions are essential for control of the anal tone along with the sphincter muscles.
Due to the swelling, they may become painful, may bleed, or may even protrude out of the anal opening.
Symptoms to watch for
- Bleeding during bowel movements
- Pain or discomfort while sitting
- Itching or irritation
- Swelling near the anus
- A lump near the anal opening
- Mucus discharge
Types & Stages
- Grade 1
Small, internal, no prolapse — managed with medication and diet.
- Grade 2
Prolapse during stool, returns on its own — laser ideal.
- Grade 3
Prolapse needs manual reduction — laser surgery recommended.
- Grade 4
Permanently prolapsed — advanced surgical treatment.
Common causes
- Chronic constipation or straining
- Low-fibre diet
- Prolonged sitting
- Pregnancy
- Heavy lifting
- Genetic predisposition
Treatment at DLPC
Treatment begins with conservative medical management along with dietary and lifestyle modification. The choice depends on the grade/severity of the disease. Non-surgical options include rubber band ligation (RBL) and injection sclerotherapy.
Conventional surgery
Open haemorrhoidectomy involves cutting the piles and stitching the remnant tissue — associated with pain, bleeding, larger wounds, infection and longer hospital stay
Laser Haemorrhoidoplasty
For intermediate, symptomatic or bleeding piles we recommend laser surgery, where the swollen tissue is not cut but shrunk back to its normal position. It is a shorter procedure with less post-operative pain, no loss of bowel control, shorter hospital stay, no post-op antibiotics, no dressings, fewer follow-ups and an early return to routine.
Stapler Surgery
For higher-grade piles that prolapse and hang out of the anus, we recommend stapler surgery to correct the prolapsed tissue and reduce vascularity.
Why treat early — Implications
- If left untreated, haemorrhoids can lead to complications such as thrombosis and/or strangulation.
- Prolonged bleeding from piles can lead to severe anaemia and can be life-threatening.
