What Causes Severe Constipation While On Daflon For Hemorrhoids?

Hi. I am a female, 24 and have been battling with pile for a couple of years. I dont know why am always constipated. Recently, i started using daflon but i got more constipated. Does daflon cause constipation? and how do I treat piles properly? It is really affecting my life and I am almost giving up. The pains are unbearable. I have just discovered sitz bath though, and it is really helping me.

Hello,

I evaluated your query thoroughly. Daflon does not cause constipation. First of all, have you consulted doctor and got diagnosed for hemorrhoids? Because what amount of your narration is there, I doubt for fissure more.

My recommendations at present:
• Proper examination by a consultant surgeon to get perfect diagnosis in form of fissure or hemorrhoid (which degree)
• Managing diet with high fiber, green veg, whole grains, cereals, pulses, plenty of liquids to get soft, smooth, regular bowel evacuations daily
• Isabgula husk help in many cases to be consumed 3 teaspoonfuls at night with glass of lukewarm water, dose titer adjustment in follow-up according to the progress
• Avoid all oily, spicy, non veg, chilly, junk items
• Sitz bath (sitting in a tub filled with lukewarm water 10 minutes each morning, evening, and especially after passing stools) helps a lot
• Local application of Lidocaine (5%) jelly gives soothing effect
• Keep the part clean, dry
• Liberal use of anti-inflammatory drugs for pain relief
• Avoid smoking/alcohol in any form/tight jeans
• Avoid stress, anxiety
• Have regular sound sleep of 7 to 8 hours
• Avoid exposure to excess heat/sitting on hard surfaces/long drives
• Keep ambulatory with regular walking, exercises, yoga
• Keep your body weight under control

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
