Who is the piles doctor for Kalewadi patients?
Dr. Kundan Kharde (MBBS · MS (General Surgery)) is the treating surgeon at Sharvari Hospital, 4 km from Kalewadi Phata. With 19+ years in general and laparoscopic surgery and 6,000+ Surgeries, he grades the piles himself at the first visit and matches banding, laser, stapler or excision to the grade — and says when nothing needs doing. Results vary between patients.
Which grades of piles need surgery?
Grade 1 bleeds without prolapse and is treated with fibre, fluids and a review, not an operation. Grade 2 prolapses on straining and goes back on its own — banding in OPD, laser if bleeding persists. Grade 3 must be pushed back — laser for selected cases, stapler for circumferential prolapse. Grade 4 stays outside — stapler or haemorrhoidectomy. The ASCRS clinical practice guideline (2018) reserves excisional surgery for grade 3–4 or mixed disease; we follow it.
Kalewadi’s housing is dense and multi-generational, so the same consultation often turns into two: the working son with grade 2 bleeding who came in, and the father from Nadhe Nagar or Jyotiba Nagar who has had grade 3 prolapse for years and was never going to book for himself. Over about 45, or with weight loss or a change in bowel habit, bleeding is examined before it is called piles.
What are the treatment options for piles?
Conservative management: fibre, water, a stool softener when needed, sitz baths, no reading on the toilet; reviewed at 4–6 weeks.
Rubber band ligation: OPD banding for grade 1–2 internal piles; no anaesthesia, no admission.
Laser haemorrhoidoplasty: laser fibre shrinks the pile from inside under anaesthesia; usually no cuts or stitches; day-care. Grade 2 and selected grade 3.
Stapler haemorrhoidopexy: circumferential grade 3–4 prolapse; less wound pain than open surgery, with the prolapse-return caveat noted in NICE TA128.
Haemorrhoidectomy: large mixed piles and skin tags — see grade 4 piles treatment.
How do the piles procedures compare?
| Procedure | Best suited to | Anaesthesia | Stay | Desk work | What to expect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rubber band ligation | Grade 1–2 internal piles that bleed | None (OPD) | Walk in, walk out | Same or next day | A dull ache for 24–48 hours; may need a second sitting for another column. |
| Laser haemorrhoidoplasty | Grade 2 and selected grade 3 internal piles | Spinal or short general | Day-care | About 3–7 days | No cuts or stitches in most cases; mild soreness and some discharge for the first week. |
| Stapler haemorrhoidopexy (MIPH) | Circumferential grade 3–4 prolapse | Spinal | Day-care or one night | About 7–10 days | Prolapse is lifted and fixed; less wound pain than open surgery, slightly higher chance of prolapse returning over years (NICE TA128). |
| Open / LigaSure haemorrhoidectomy | Large external components, skin tags, mixed grade 4 disease | Spinal or general | Usually one night | About 2–3 weeks | The most durable option for advanced disease; the longest and most uncomfortable recovery. |

Why do Kalewadi patients come to Pimple Nilakh rather than Pimpri?
Shorter than the Pimpri hospitals in practice: The BRT road to Rahatani Phata moves; the Kalewadi main road north into Pimpri at the evening peak does not.
Grade first: The surgeon grades the piles; banding or conservative care is offered when the grade calls for it.
Day-care: laser and most stapler cases go home the same evening — a ten-minute drive back to Vijay Nagar.
24×7: a thrombosed external pile is best treated within 48–72 hours; the emergency desk is staffed overnight.

Patient from Kalewadi
"Ten minutes from Tapkir Chowk. I came in expecting to be told I needed an operation and was put on banding in the OPD instead. The honesty is why my brother went too."

Itemised in writing before consent and given after examination, because grade, number of columns and technique set the figure. Cashless with 50+ insurers and TPAs; pre-authorisation starts in OPD; EMI for co-pay.
Is laser piles surgery painless?
No. It is done under anaesthesia, so nothing is felt during the procedure, but soreness and burning for a few days afterwards are normal and the first bowel movement is uncomfortable. Stool softeners, sitz baths and simple analgesia manage it for most patients, and it is usually milder and shorter than after open surgery. Results vary.
Prolapsed and grade 4 piles treatment near Kalewadi
Laser works well for grade 2 and many grade 3 piles, but major prolapsed or grade 4 piles that stay outside the anus need a different plan — stapler haemorrhoidopexy (MIPH), LigaSure or Ferguson haemorrhoidectomy. Dr. Kundan Kharde assesses these cases at Sharvari Hospital, Pimple Nilakh, about 4.0 km from Kalewadi. See grade 4 and prolapsed piles treatment.
