A real instance-

Let me share a real experience of how piles can hamper life on a daily basis. Mr. Anil is clinically obese and a patient of chronic constipation. A few weeks ago, an incessant itching started in his anal region. The itching was so bad that it caused him embarrassment at his place of work also.

A few days later, while he was sitting on the toilet there was a piercing pain in his anal region. The pain was so excruciating that he thought that he’ll pass out. He gathered a sense of his surroundings and got back on his feet a couple of minutes later. But as soon as he stood up, he saw streaks of blood on the toilet. Seeing blood in the stool, he was scared to death. He came out of the toilet feeling helpless as well as oblivious about what he should do.

His wife tried to reason with him by stating that this could have occurred due to something that he ate the previous night in addition to drinking less water. He was satisfied with his answer and went to the office. He ate all kinds of healthy foods that day and drank almost 8 to 10 glasses of water. To get some relief from the pain, he even applied over-the-counter painkiller also. The next day he woke up without any pain or discomfort and continued with his daily rituals.  Satisfied with his care, he carried on with his life for the next couple of days.

To his dire luck, the same pain occurred a couple of days later when he sat on the toilet. It bled again when he strained excessively. This time the pain didn’t subside like the previous day. In addition to this, he could feel a bulge in his anal region. Without wasting any further time, he underwent a permanent solution to the problem that too without any pain!

• Shield Rectal Ointment-

Piles patients have vehemently used this ointment to treat symptoms such as minor pain, itching, swelling, and discomfort caused by hemorrhoids and other disorders of the anal area.
