A 5-holes piles applicator is a specialized medical device designed to administer topical medications directly into the anal canal and rectal area for the treatment of hemorrhoids (piles) and related conditions such as fissures or inflammation. Constructed from medical-grade, non-toxic plastic such as polypropylene, this applicator ensures safety, ease of use, and patient comfort.
The applicator typically features a tapered, rounded tip for smooth and painless insertion and contains five evenly spaced radial holes near the distal end. These holes allow for uniform distribution of ointment or cream directly onto the affected internal areas. The design ensures that medication reaches a wider surface area inside the rectum compared to single-port applicators, enhancing treatment effectiveness.
It is generally attached to a medication tube or syringe, allowing the user to gently squeeze the base and dispense the product evenly through all five holes. The total length is usually around 60–80 mm, with a diameter of 8–12 mm, designed for comfortable insertion while maintaining structural integrity.
The device is typically disposable, intended for single use to maintain hygiene and prevent cross-contamination. It may be provided with a protective cap and is packaged in sterile or hygienic sealed pouches. The 5-holes piles applicator is compliant with applicable medical safety standards, such as ISO 13485, and is a valuable tool in proctological and general healthcare settings for the localized treatment of anorectal conditions.
