Kshara Sutra

(Anorectal surgery)

The Kshara Sutra is a minimally invasive ayurvedic surgical procedure where medicated alkaline threads are used to treat piles, fistulas, and anal fissures by gradually cutting and healing the affected tissue.  It promotes gradual healing without major surgery.

How Kshara Sutra Works?

Kshara Sutra involves application of a specially prepared medicated thread.  It is coated with Ayurvedic herbs and alkaline substances. The thread is carefully placed in the affected area, where it gradually cleanses the wound, removes toxins, and promotes healing by stimulating tissue regeneration. It works by reducing inflammation, pain, and swelling while helping the body eliminate waste materials and toxins. 

Kshara Sutra Procedure

Preparation: The patient is positioned comfortably, and the affected area is examined by an Ayurvedic practitioner to determine the severity and location of the condition. 

Thread Placement: A medicated thread, Kshara Sutra, which is prepared with herbal alkaline substances, is inserted into or around the affected area, such as piles, fistulas, or fissures. 

Cauterization Process: Over time, the thread causes a controlled process of tissue removal or cauterization, which helps in healing the damaged tissues and promoting the regeneration of healthy cells. 

Post-treatment Monitoring: The patient is advised to visit regularly for monitoring and to change the thread as needed for further healing and support.

    I’ve been seeing doctors for the past 10 years, dealing with everything from a simple cold to more serious stuff like shoulder tendonitis, which required an injection. Wanting to avoid ongoing treatments, I turned to Ayurveda. Since then, my shoulders are back to feeling as good as new. Later on, I also got treated for ulcerative colitis and it’s all gone now. It’s amazing—every issue I’ve had has been fixed without any long-term problems.

    I took treatment in this Hospital for knee pain and blood circulation in left foot from 5th Sept to 16th Sept 2024. I took a consultation with Dr. Sri Krishna, a Competent, Calm, and Cool person. Above all 6th Generation doctor of this ancient hospital! There is a say that, when you meet your doctor, half of your ailments will disappear, actually it happened with me! He advised me to take 10 days of external treatment like Abhyanga, Janu Basti.. along with oral medicines...

    I met Dr.Sampoorna who helped me with the treatment for my vericose veins. I underwent 14 days treatment in Shree Ayurvedic hospital. The 5 girls who helped me with the treatment were really kind and helpful. Even the staffs were really kind. I can see a good improvement in the condition after getting the treatment. Hope it gets even more better in the future.
