• Is piles a lifelong condition?

I have recently been diagnosed with piles and I am currently treating it with medication. Is it a lifelong condition?

If you can modify your diet to minimize pressure in the anus the tissue will change back to more normal and the symptoms and piles resolve over time.

It pretty much is. Symptoms wax and wane.

No, it is not lifelong. Hemorrhoids can be treated surgically and cured.
