Abstrakt: Haemorrhoids have plagued humans since they attained the erect posture. The word 'haemorrhoid' is derived from Greek word haemorrhoides, meaning flowing of blood (haem=blood, rhoos=flowing). The word 'piles' comes from Latin word pila meaning a pill or ball. To be accurate, we should call the disease as piles when the patient complains of a swelling and 'haemorrhoids' when he or she complains of bleeding. The subjects fulfilling the inclusion criteria were divided in to two groups Group I and Group II, 1st patient was recruited in Group I and 2nd patient was recruited in group II. Similarly every odd numbered patient was recruited into Group I and even numbered patient was recruited into Group II. Group I patients underwent Open Haemorrhoidectomy and Group II patients underwent Barron's band ligation. In Open Haemorrhoidectomy group, 72% had mild, 24% had moderate and 4% had severe pain. In Barron's band ligation group, 24% had no pain, 76% had mild pain. There was significant difference in pain between two groups. In Open Haemorrhoidectomy group, 60% had bleeding and in Barron's band ligation group, 28% had bleeding. There was significant difference in bleeding between two groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
