        There are several medication options available to further manage the symptoms of a person with piles. Himalayan Pilex tablets are a reliable Ayurvedic solution for haemorrhoids. Pilex<\/span><\/span>\u00a0helps reduce the size of the pile mass, relaxes mucous membranes, heals inflamed skin and controls bleeding. It also provides immediate relief from symptoms such as bleeding from the rectum and pain and itching.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

        Laparoscopy can be classifie<\/span>d as an invasive surgery, which uses quite smaller incisions. It is named after the device laparoscope, which is a medical tool having a small video camera to capture the condition inside and a light at the end to illuminate it. The surgeon can insert the\u00a0<\/span>camera through the incision to track down the progress of the inflammation by seeing it in the video monitor.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        If these tools wouldn\u2019t have existed, the surgeons had to open up more. Thanks to the special equipment, there is no need for the surgeons to go i<\/span>nto the body and do more cutting. If you have ever heard about the term “minimally invasive surgeries,” then you must know Laparoscopic surgery is one of its type and gallbladder surgery and gynaecological operations were the first two most common examples<\/span>\u00a0of it before.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
