How realistic is it to completely cure piles in 3 days?

1 month ago

I’ve been suffering from piles for the past few months and recently came across several ads claiming that piles can be cured in just 3 days using home remedies or certain medicines. Is it actually possible to completely cure piles in such a short time? Or is this just a marketing gimmick?

It is important to understand that piles (hemorrhoids) are swollen veins around the anus or rectum, and the treatment depends on their type and severity.
  • Mild or early-stage piles (Grade 1) may show improvement within a few days with proper diet, medications, and lifestyle changes – such as high-fiber foods, increased water intake, and avoiding straining during bowel movements.
  • However, moderate to severe piles (Grade 2–4) usually do not resolve completely in 3 days. They often require medical procedures or surgical treatment such as laser surgery, which offers faster recovery and long-term relief, but even then, complete healing and comfort typically take about 7–10 days.
If your symptoms persist or recur, consult a proctologist or colorectal surgeon to discuss safe and effective treatment options.
