Laser Treatment for Piles, Fissure, and Fistula
Laser treatment has revolutionized the management of anorectal conditions like piles (hemorrhoids), fissures, and fistulas. This advanced technique offers a minimally invasive, painless solution with faster recovery compared to conventional surgical methods. It is particularly beneficial for patients seeking effective results with minimal downtime.
How Laser Treatment Works
Laser surgery uses focused light energy to treat the affected tissues. The precision of the laser ensures that only the problematic areas are targeted, minimizing damage to surrounding tissues. For piles, the laser shrinks hemorrhoidal tissues. In fissures, it promotes healing and reduces inflammation. For fistulas, the laser effectively seals the internal opening and destroys the infected tract.
Benefits of Laser Treatment
- Minimally Invasive: No large incisions, leading to less pain and faster recovery.
- Reduced Bleeding: The laser seals blood vessels, minimizing blood loss during the procedure.
- Quick Recovery: Patients can resume normal activities within a few days.
- High Precision: The laser targets only the affected tissues, reducing post-operative complications.
- Daycare Procedure: Most patients can go home the same day.
Procedure Overview
The procedure is performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the condition’s severity. It typically takes 30-60 minutes, making it quick and efficient.
Post-Operative Care
Patients are advised to maintain good hygiene, follow a fiber-rich diet, and stay hydrated to prevent recurrence. Follow-up visits ensure proper healing and long-term success.
