TOPI AESCULUS CREAM

INTRODUCTION

Haemorrhoids or piles are vascular swelling of the tissues of anus and rectum. It is a problem very common in adults, both men and women. It is engorged, enlarged and inflammed blood vessels in or around the lower portion of the rectum and at anus. Internal haemorrhoids (piles) arise from congestion of plexus of superior haemorrhoidal veins, external haemorrhoids (piles) arise from the inferior haemorrhoidal veins. This may hang outside the anus. It may be of a size of a pea or large protrusions in chronic cases. Haemorrhoids (piles) often result from straining to have a bowel movement.

Managing interventions involve high fibre diet, avoidance of straining, use of medication to relieve pain, lower the inflammation and strengthening the venous walls. Aesculus hippocastanum has long been used in homoeopathy for the treatment of bleeding and non-bleeding haemorrhoids.
