Do fiber contained fruits lesser the piles burning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bowel regimen: Long term your best solution to constipation (irritates rectum relates to piles) is to use fiber (from fruit, vegetables, or the pharmacy aka metamucil), increased fluid intake, stool softeners, and laxatives, to achieve 2 soft bowel movements per day, no straining. Okay to check in with your doc about piles/hemorrhoids.
