Learn moreFrequently Asked by Patients
Is laser piles surgery painful?
No. Laser haemorrhoidoplasty is performed under anaesthesia. Most patients report minimal discomfort post-procedure and return home the same day.
How long is recovery after laser surgery?
Most patients resume desk work within 2–3 days and full activity within a week. Recovery is significantly faster than open surgery.
Can piles come back after laser treatment?
Recurrence is low with laser treatment. Following dietary advice — high fibre, adequate hydration, and regular bowel habits — further reduces the risk.
Does a perianal abscess always turn into a fistula?
Approximately 30–50% of perianal abscesses develop into a fistula-in-ano. Early drainage and follow-up with a specialist reduces this risk.
