Any cure for piles?

I want to know if there is a permanent cure for Piles.

Piles (Hemorrhoids) can develop from increased pressure in the lower rectum due to: straining during bowel movements, sitting for long periods of time, especially on the toilet as well as having chronic diarrhea or constipation. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a cure that will mean you are rid of them for life, but there are ways of eradicating the piles that you have at the minute without needing to turn to surgery. Electrotherapy is a unique non-surgical treatment.
