Piles, also known as Hemorrhoids, are characterized by swollen veins at the vascular structure in the anal canal and rectum. This swelling and expansion of veins can be caused by various factors, including a low fibre diet, excessive weight lifting, pregnancy, chronic constipation, obesity, anal intercourse, or straining during bowel movement. Piles can be highly uncomfortable and painful for those who suffer from them, and they can also cause bleeding during motions.

Because of the pain caused by Hemorrhoids, it is necessary to get it treated on time. Medfine Hospitals provides the most effective laser piles treatment in Bangalore.
