One of the most prevalent disorders of the ano-rectal area that is a part of the Asthamahagada (eight great diseases) is arsha (piles). Since it has been documented for a very long time—dating back thousands of years—Arsha (Piles) is one of the most prevalent anorectal ailments. The main etiological elements of this illness include improper food habits and lifestyle choices, anatomical abnormalities, and inherited factors. Approximately 50% of people typically have one hemorrhoidal episode over their lifetime. Clinically speaking, arsha (hemorrhoids) is an engorged condition of the hemorrhoidal venous plexus associated with an abnormally misplaced, larger anal cushion, and is distinguished by an inflamed or prolapsed pile mass, bleeding from the rectum, and some discharge from the anus. Hemorrhoidectomy, which is frequently recommended by surgeons, is one of several treatments for managing hemorrhoids that are documented in current medical research. However, when the condition is removed, there is a high likelihood that it will return. But in Ayurveda, there are many treatments for Arsha depending on how persistent and manifested the condition is, including Bheshaj, Kshar Karma, Agnikarma, Shastra Karma (Chedana), and Kshar sutra.
