Grade-Wise Explanation of Piles & Modern Laser Treatment in Thane
By Dr. Ankur Bhanushali – General & Laparoscopic Surgeon
Piles (Hemorrhoids) are swollen veins in the anus or rectum that cause pain, bleeding, itching, or a lump. Many patients do not understand which grade of piles they have and what treatment is suitable. Early diagnosis helps avoid complications and ensures faster recovery.
This guide explains piles grade-wise, symptoms at each stage, and the best treatment options including advanced laser surgery available in Thane.
