Assisting with a Balanced Diet Chart
‘Piles Fistula Care Centre’ is recognised as the Best Fistula Clinic in Chandigarh where patients step in with the hope of receiving exceptional care. Here Dr. Tripathi provides an effective diet chart. He says that patients should focus primarily on high-fiber foods, such as whole grains, fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, legumes, and processed foods. Because these can irritate the sensitive anal area and worsen symptoms.
