What does Ayurveda say about Piles treatment?
Ayurveda aims at balancing the three doshas of the body- Vata, Pitta, and Kapha.
In Ayurveda, it is said to balance the digestive system of the body. Good and proper
digestion is based on digestive fire (agni) and its strength. It is also said that the digestive
fire is strongest around noon. So, it is suggested that people should consume their heaviest
meal at noon and keep their dinner and other meals lighter.
The excretion process in the body is governed by Vata Dosha, as it keeps the bowel
movement proper and functioning.
Vata dosha when aggravated or imbalanced can cause the bowel contents to get dried and
hinders proper bowel movement causing constipation. Imbalanced Vata Dosha also causes
constipation along with painful hemorrhoids.
An imbalance in Pitta Dosha can cause excessive diarrhea, excessive thirst, and inflamed
hemorrhoids that bleed.
In addition to this, an imbalance in the Kapha Dosha, can cause light hemorrhoids.
So, it is necessary to bring all the three doshas in balance for complete treatment of piles.
