OGH doc devises painless treatment for hemorrhoids

Time of India06-06-2025
Hyderabad: A general surgeon at the Osmania General Hospital (OGH) developed an innovative painless treatment for hemorrhoids (also known as piles). The treatment, developed by Dr Pallam Praveen, professor and HOD of the Department of General Surgery, has been recognised and published in the International Journal of Surgery.
Named "Pallam's painless hybrid laser sandwich procedure," the treatment is devised for people suffering from grade-3 and grade-4 hemorrhoids.
The procedure combines the benefits of both conventional surgeries and laser surgeries, assuring faster relief to the patient with minimal invasion. While the traditional procedure gets complicated by incontinence surgery, prolonged pain, and recurrence, the new procedure swiftly reduces the pain with almost no recurrence.
Moreover, since it is sphincter-sparing surgery, there is no risk of incontinence, the hospital said.
"Patients undergoing this procedure can walk home on the same day," said Dr Praveen, who has successfully performed the new procedure in over 500 surgeries over the last four years. He was facilitated by Dr Rakesh Sahay, OGH Superintendent, who said that the treatment is a valuable contribution to the medical field.

Energetic Hoarding: Is your home absorbing other people's emotional baggage?

Every emotion we feel has a frequency. And our spaces, especially homes, absorb that frequency like a sponge. Over time, rooms become storage units for tension, heartbreak, anger, and even jealousy, left behind like forgotten luggage. What Is Energetic Hoarding ? You've scrubbed every corner of your home, lit your favourite incense. But still, something feels off. Whenever you enter this space, you feel a strange sense of heaviness. This is called emotional hoarding, when your home holds on to the emotional residue left behind by people who've visited or lived there. How Energy Builds Up in a Space Emotions don't just live in people. They stick to surfaces, linger in the air, and settle in corners. Homes that see regular visitors, emotional conversations, or even prolonged stress tend to capture the negative energy which lingers for a long time. Why It Matters A space cluttered with heavy energetic emotions can negatively influence your mood, motivation, and even sleep. It's like trying to rest on a bed layered with thoughts that aren't yours. If you often feel restless, irritable, or drained at home despite no obvious reason, it may be time to look beyond what's visible. What You Can Do Begin by observing where the emotional weight feels the strongest. Bedrooms and entryways are common hotspots. Avoid venting or arguing in these areas. Place a small bowl of sea salt in the corners of these rooms for 48 hours, then discard it outside your home. Use intentional sounds, like chimes, claps, or mantra chanting, to shift stale energy. Open windows during daylight while saying a grounding affirmation. Most importantly, walk through your home with calm focus. Your emotional state is the strongest reset button your space needs. Your home reflects you, but it also remembers others. Hence, energetic cleaning is as important as physical cleaning.
