Brief Answer:
precautions advised
Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
It is very common to have constipation and piles during and after pregnancy.
The main reason is constipation and if it is removed then piles regress themselves eventually.
So to help relieving constipation
- drink lots of water especially 2 glasses after waking up early in morning
- take lots of salads and fruits specially bananas.
- avoid straining for stools when you don't have enough feeling for evacuation of bowel.
But in case piles start increasing in size or start bleeding everytime you sit for stools then you should visit surgeon for check up.
