Homeopathy medicine for Anal fissure ,anal fistura and piles

The symptoms of anal fissure include:- Pain during, and even hours after, defecation.
- Visible tear in the anus
- Blood on the stool or on toilet paper or toilet bowl
- Constipation
- Burning, possibly painful itching

Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids
are enlarged veins in the anus or lower rectum. They often go unnoticed and
usually clear up after a few days, but can cause long-lasting discomfort,
bleeding and be excruciatingly painful.
Types
of hemorrhoidsExternal hemorrhoids are those that occur outside of the anal verge (the distal end of the anal canal).
1. Internal hemorrhoids are those that occur inside the rectum. As this area lacks pain receptors, internal hemorrhoids are usually not painful and most people are not aware that they have them. Internal hemorrhoids, however, may bleed when irritated.
2.
Prolapsed hemorrhoids are internal hemorrhoids that are so distended that
they are pushed outside the anus.
3. If the anal sphincter muscle goes into spasm and traps a prolapsed hemorrhoid outside the
anal opening, the supply of blood is cut off, and the hemorrhoid becomes a strangulated
hemorrhoid.Symptoms-

2. Collinsonia. [Coll]
Collinsonia is indicated in obstinate cases of haemorrhoids which bleed almost incessantly. It is of special use in females with inertia of the rectum and a congestive tendency to the pelvic organs.

The indicating symptoms are chiefly a sensation of sticks in the rectum, with constipation from inertia of the lower bowel. It is especially applicable to heart pains resulting from a suppression of a habitual haemorrhoidal flow. It is somewhat similar to Nux, but is a far more useful remedy.

Anal fistula
An anal fistula is an abnormal connection between the epithelialised surface of the anal canal and (usually) the perianal skin
Anal fistulae originate from the anal glands, which are located between the two layers of the anal sphincters and which drain into the anal canal. If the outlet of these glands becomes blocked, an abscess can form which can eventually point to the skin surface. The tract formed by this process is the fistula.
Symptoms-
Anal fistulae can present with many different symptoms:- Pain
- Discharge - either bloody or purulent.
