What is bawaseer Symptoms & Causes? In English and Urdu

Symptoms of Bawaseer

The most common symptom of bawaseer is bleeding from the rectum during a bowel movement. Other symptoms include soreness, itching, and a lump near the anus. In more severe cases, there may be discharge from the anus, and a person may experience pain and discomfort during defecation.

Causes of Bawaseer

The main cause of bawaseer or piles is straining during bowel movements. This causes increased pressure on the veins in the anus, which leads to them becoming swollen and inflamed. Other possible causes include chronic constipation, obesity, pregnancy, long periods of sitting, and lifting heavy objects.

 

Bawaseer Stages

• The first stage of bawaseer is typically when the condition first develops. During this stage, the affected area may be itchy, painful, or even bleeding. Swelling is also common, although this may not always be noticeable. At this stage, simple home treatments such as sitz baths, witch hazel pads, and over-the-counter creams and ointments can usually help to provide relief.

 

• The second stage of bawaseer is often much more severe. Bleeding may be more frequent while pain can become more intense. This is usually the point where medical treatment may be necessary. Prescribed ointments and creams as well as topical anesthetics can be used to reduce swelling and provide relief. In some cases, more invasive procedures such as rubber band ligation may also be required.

 

• The third stage of bawaseer is when the condition is at its worst. Serious bleeding, pain, and swelling can occur, and the affected area may ulcerate. In this stage, surgery may be required to remove the hemorrhoid or to repair the affected area.

 

• The fourth stage of bawaseer is when the bawaseer prolapses and remains outside. It is an emergency condition and needs urgent medical attention and admission under the care of a general surgeon.

 

No matter which stage a person is at, it’s important to seek medical attention if bawaseer is causing severe or persistent symptoms.

Bawaseer Treatments

As already discussed, for mild cases of bawaseer, treatment may include medications such as pain relievers and stool softeners. Increasing fiber in the diet and drinking plenty of fluids can also help to ease symptoms. In more severe cases, a doctor may recommend surgery to remove the inflamed veins.

Bawaseer Operation:

Surgical operations for bawaseer are typically used to remove the inflamed veins in the anus and lower rectum. The most common type of operation is known as a hemorrhoidectomy, which is an outpatient procedure that involves cutting away the affected tissue. Other types of operations include rubber band ligation, sclerotherapy, and laser therapy.

Note: It is important to consult a doctor before beginning any type of treatment for bawaseer, as some treatments may not be suitable for everyone. Before considering any type of operation, it is important to understand the risks and potential side effects. Following treatment, a person should take steps to reduce the risk of the bawaseer recurring, such as maintaining a healthy diet and exercising regularly.
