Piles and Homeopathy

The correct technique requires you to exhale while lifting heavy weights. Lifting heavy weights in general and especially lifting with the wrong technique can lead you to develop hemorrhoids or piles. This is due to the increased pressure that weight lifting puts on the pelvic and rectal region, which causes the rectal veins to swell. But exercising and keeping active can actually prevent the development of piles. Exercises like biking, yoga, and walking are less strenuous and can help you stay fit. Nux-vomica is a homeopathic remedy that is effective in the treatment of piles as well as constipation.

Aloe Vera is one of the most commonly used home remedies for piles and constipation. But Aloe Vera may only provide temporary relief to soothe the symptoms of piles. On the contrary, there is a homeopathic medicine called Aesculus hippocastanum that helps to treat the root cause of piles. It rectifies the rectal bleeding, blockage of hard stools and burning pains, which are the effects of the condition of piles.

The condition of piles or hemorrhoids was prevalent many centuries ago. This condition has been documented in manuscripts from ancient Egypt and was also found in the texts by the Greek philosopher Hippocrates. Many modern lifestyle habits like watching TV, excessive use of smart phones can be unhealthy. But the condition of piles and hemorrhoids has been around for centuries and is caused mostly by low-fiber diets, low consumption of water and other underlying conditions. For those who suffer from piles and constipation, homeopathy provides a medicine called Collinsonia, which treats hemorrhoids as well as the protrusion of piles.

Sitting on the toilet straight-backed at a 90 angle is highly unhealthy and can lead to conditions like constipation and hemorrhoids. This position obstructs the process of regular bowel movement, and forces you to exert excess pressure while passing stools. On the contrary, sitting with your legs elevated by a stool at a 35 angle from your abdomen or squatting are ideal positions to sit on the toilet. These positions can actually help the process of bowel movement to occur naturally. When you sit on the toilet in either of these positions, the passageway for bowel movement is free, and this enables you to pass stools without strain and pressure. Therefore, it decreases your risk for constipation or even piles.
