Dear Sir, I am suffering from piles for last three year. Bleeding occurs occationally. Bleeding has occured 6 or 7 times in total for the last three years. It occurs when hard stool passes through anal.Generally my stool is smooth but when first part of my stool is hard and the remaining is smooth, bleeding occurs. After bleeding mild pain persists for a day or two but no burning. I have consulted a local doctor. He prescribed me ACID NIT 200. Yet bleeding occurs. Perhaps the frequency of bleedding is guadually increasing. It will be highly appreciated if you kindly consult me. Thanking you Yours sincerely PATIENT PATIENT professor Department of mathematics Behampore college West Bengal
