It has been used in Ayurveda for years for the treatment of various diseases. The leaves, stalks and roots of wormwood are considered to be full of medicinal properties and this plant is easily found naturally in rural areas. While giving information to Local 18, Ayurvedic Medical Officer of Sidhi, Dr. Vipin Singh said that today a large number of people are struggling with the problem of piles. This problem is increasing rapidly among the youth also. Piles are also called piles or hemorrhoids, in which the veins around the anus become swollen. Due to this, there may be problems like pain, burning sensation and sometimes bleeding during bowel movements, which is called bloody piles.

According to the doctor, constipation, working while sitting for a long time, lack of fiber rich diet and constant stress are the main reasons for this. If timely treatment is not received, the situation can become serious. In such a situation, Ayurvedic treatments can prove helpful in providing relief. According to Dr. Singh, wormwood leaves are considered very effective in piles. If five fresh leaves of wormwood are chewed in the morning on an empty stomach for three consecutive days, then the initial stage of the disease can be relieved. He told that anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and pain-relieving properties are found in these leaves, which help in reducing swelling, irritation and pain.

Apart from this, balanced diet, adequate water intake and fiber rich food also play an important role in preventing piles. In case of chronic or serious problem, it is important to seek medical advice instead of self-treatment. Wormwood is definitely a cheap and natural option but its use with right lifestyle and medical advice can give better results.
