Learn about the type, symptoms and treatment approach for each condition — the right information is the first step to the right decision.

Service 01

Piles (Hemorrhoids)

Piles occur when the blood vessels inside or around the anus become swollen. Long-term constipation, excessive straining during bowel movements, lack of fibre in the diet, and prolonged sitting are the main causes. Early-stage piles can often be relieved with medication and lifestyle changes; for more advanced cases, laser treatment is the most effective option.

Common symptoms

  • Bleeding during bowel movements
  • A lump protruding from the anus
  • Itching and irritation
  • Pain and discomfort
Service 02

Fistula

A fistula is an abnormal tunnel that forms between the inside of the anus and the skin outside it, usually developing from an old abscess. Medication cannot cure it — accurate diagnosis followed by surgery is the only permanent solution. Treatment is planned by carefully tracing the tract while protecting the anal sphincter muscles.

Common symptoms

  • Discharge of pus or fluid
  • Recurring abscesses
  • Pain near the anus
  • A small opening in the skin
Service 03

Anal Fissure

A fissure is a small tear in the skin of the anus, usually caused by passing hard stool. Sharp, burning pain during and after bowel movements is the main symptom. Most new fissures heal with medication alone; a small surgical procedure gives lasting relief for chronic fissures.

Colorectal Cancer

Cancer of the colon and rectum has a much higher chance of complete cure when caught at an early stage. A change in bowel habits or rectal bleeding should never simply be dismissed as piles. Complete management is provided — from colonoscopy through surgery and follow-up care.

Common symptoms

  • Blood in the stool
  • Change in bowel habits
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Anaemia and weakness

When the pelvic floor muscles become weak or uncoordinated, it can lead to difficulty passing stool, faecal incontinence, or rectal prolapse. This is especially common in postpartum and elderly patients. A personalised treatment plan is developed following specialised assessment.

Laser Surgery

Modern laser technology makes it possible to treat piles, fistula and fissure without major cuts. It causes less pain and bleeding, lowers the risk of infection, and lets patients return to normal life much faster.

Common symptoms

  • Less pain
  • Minimal bleeding
  • Little to no scarring
  • Faster recovery

Laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery makes it possible to perform complex colon and rectal operations through a few small incisions in the abdomen. It results in less pain, smaller wounds, a lower risk of infection, and faster recovery.

  • Less pain
  • Shorter hospital stay

Questions & Answers

Common Questions About Treatment

Yes, laser treatment is a safe and proven method. It causes less bleeding and pain, and most patients can return to normal life very quickly.

With laser surgery, most patients can return to normal activity within 1–3 days. Larger surgeries take longer — the exact time is confirmed after examination.

Early-stage piles can be managed with medication, a fibre-rich diet and adequate water intake. However, recurring bleeding or prolapse requires surgical treatment.

Bleeding can be caused by piles or a fissure, but it can also be a sign of a more serious condition. Consult a colorectal specialist without delay.

Bring any previous prescriptions, test reports (if available), and a list of medicines you are currently taking.
