Treatment for piles, anal fissure, anal fistula and rectal prolapse at Mar Sleeva Medicity Palai in Kottayam, Kerala covers common anorectal conditions that cause pain, bleeding, swelling and discomfort, along with complex anal fistula and rectal prolapse. Assessment is carried out discreetly, with treatment options explained clearly according to the underlying condition and its severity.
Evaluation includes clinical examination and, where required, colonoscopy to investigate rectal bleeding and exclude other causes. Anorectal manometry is used where anal sphincter function needs to be assessed. Many patients with piles and fissure can be managed without surgery, while anal fistula and rectal prolapse may require surgical treatment by the colorectal surgical team.

The department manages the full spectrum of gastrointestinal, hepatic, pancreatic and biliary conditions. This includes acid reflux disease, peptic ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis), irritable bowel syndrome, liver diseases, pancreatitis, gastrointestinal bleeding, gastrointestinal cancers and all conditions requiring diagnostic or therapeutic endoscopy.
Capsule endoscopy involves swallowing a small, vitamin sized capsule containing a tiny camera. As it passes through the digestive tract, it captures thousands of images of the small bowel, an area that is difficult to reach with conventional endoscopy. It is used to evaluate conditions such as obscure gastrointestinal bleeding, Crohn’s disease and small bowel tumours.
Most endoscopic procedures are performed under conscious sedation or short general anaesthesia, so patients typically experience minimal discomfort. The gastroenterology team at Mar Sleeva Medicity Palai ensures patient comfort and safety with ICU level monitoring during and after the procedure.
