Foods and Lifestyle Choices to Avoid with Piles

While incorporating fiber-rich foods is widely recommended, it’s equally crucial to know which foods to avoid when dealing with piles.

At Chirag Hospital, we aim to provide comprehensive advice on foods to avoid to help you manage and alleviate your symptoms effectively.

Processed Foods Processed foods are major culprits in exacerbating piles. Low in fiber and high in unhealthy fats and sugars, these foods contribute to constipation, putting pressure on the veins in the anal region. Avoid fast food like burgers and fries, packaged snacks such as chips and crackers, frozen meals, and sugary cereals.

Spicy Foods Spicy foods can irritate the digestive tract, causing symptoms like diarrhea, which can be particularly uncomfortable for individuals with piles. Hot sauces, chili peppers, and spicy curries should be reduced in your diet to avoid discomfort.
