Kshar Sutra Treatment

Kshar Sutra Treatment

Kshar Sutra Treatment is an Ayurvedic para-surgical procedure primarily used for the treatment of Piles (Hemorrhoids), Fistula-in-Ano, and Pilonidal Sinus. It involves the use of a specially medicated thread coated with herbal alkaline drugs like Apamarga kshar, turmeric, and latex of Snuhi. The thread is carefully inserted into the fistula tract or tied around the pile mass. Over time, it gradually cuts, drains, and heals the affected tissue, promoting natural healing without major surgery. This treatment is minimally invasive, has fewer chances of recurrence, and requires less recovery time, making it a safe and effective alternative to conventional surgery.
