Dr. CM Parameshwara’s Message on World Piles Day: Break the Silence, Seek Treatment
Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], November 18: On World Piles Day, Dr. CM Parameshwara, the founder and CEO of Smiles Hospitals, shares an important message about a common yet often misunderstood condition: piles. “Piles can affect anyone, and it is nothing to be ashamed of,” says Dr. Parameshwara. “Yet, many people suffer in silence due to the stigma surrounding it. Today, on World Piles Day, I urge everyone to break that silence and seek the treatment they deserve.”
Recent studies show that a shocking 36% of Indians suffer from some form of colorectal problems, such as piles, fissures, or fistulas. Despite this high prevalence, many avoid talking about these conditions due to the taboo attached to them. This silence only contributes to unnecessary suffering, with many patients waiting until their condition worsens into something more severe, like colorectal cancer (CRC).
Dr. Parameshwara emphasises that piles, fissures, and fistulas are treatable, yet so many people neglect them because of embarrassment or lack of awareness. “The reality is that ignoring these conditions can lead to more serious health issues, including colorectal cancer. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical,” he warns. "Don’t wait until your condition escalates. Seeking help early can make all the difference in preventing more complicated problems down the line."
At Smiles Hospitals, under Dr. Parameshwara’s leadership, advanced and minimally invasive treatments like laser therapy have revolutionised the way piles are treated. “We no longer rely on painful surgeries with long recovery times. Our cutting-edge treatments ensure faster recovery with less discomfort,” he explains, emphasising that modern medical advancements have made piles treatment more accessible and effective than ever before.
Dr. Parameshwara also highlights that the number of people affected by piles globally is much higher than most realise. “Many people think piles are rare or only affect older individuals, but the truth is, they can affect anyone at any age. Pregnancy, lifestyle, diet, and even genetics play a role. So, it's important that people are aware of the symptoms and get the care they need, without feeling embarrassed or ashamed.”
As a global leader in gastroenterology and proctology, Smiles Hospitals has built a reputation for treating piles with the highest standards of care. Patients from over 40 countries and across India come to Smiles Hospitals for its expertise, compassionate care, and remarkable success in treating conditions like piles. Dr. Parameshwara is proud of the hospital's ability to provide not just treatment, but also education and support to people worldwide.
On this World Piles Day, Dr. Parameshwara calls for greater awareness and a change in the way society views conditions like piles. “It’s time to stop the silence and the stigma surrounding piles. The more people talk about it, the easier it will be for others to seek help without fear of judgement,” he says. “If you are experiencing any symptoms like pain, bleeding, or itching in the rectal area, don’t wait. Seek help today. You deserve to live without pain, and the right care is just a step away.”
In conclusion, Dr. Parameshwara encourages everyone to take charge of their health and seek medical help when needed. “Let this World Piles Day be the day we make a commitment to better health and awareness. Together, we can help more people lead a life free from the discomfort and pain of piles.”
