A member asked:

Can piles be cured without surgery ?

Dr. Matthew Lublin answered

Specializes in Surgery

No: Hemorrhoids or piles cannot be completely cured - by being diligent you can keep them from causing flares. Staying regular, not straining, and avoiding toilet paper but using moist wipes are the best ways to stop hemorrhoids from causing problems.
