Dr Swati Tongale (Wankhade)
MS Ayurved Shalya Tantra (General Surgery),
Female Proctologist in Amravati | Ayurvedic & Anorectal Surgeon | Laser-Assisted Anorectal Procedures | Shalya Tantra Specialist | Panchakarma Consultant
Dr. Swati Wankhade Tongale is a Female Proctologist and Ayurvedic Surgeon in Amravati, with postgraduate specialization in MS (Ayurveda) – Shalya Tantra (Ayurvedic Surgery). She is a consultant at Shri Manmukund Hospital, Amravati, where she provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment for piles (hemorrhoids), anal fissure, fistula-in-ano and other anorectal disorders.
With Ayurvedic clinical experience since 2007 and surgical clinical experience since 2018, Dr. Swati has developed a broad clinical practice encompassing anorectal care, Ayurvedic surgery, para-surgical procedures, laser-assisted anorectal treatment, Panchakarma and selected women’s Ayurvedic healthcare services.
Her practice is particularly relevant for women who prefer to consult a female proctologist for sensitive anorectal concerns. She provides a comfortable and respectful consultation environment where patients can discuss symptoms such as anal pain, bleeding, piles, fissure, swelling, itching and perianal discharge without hesitation.
Female Proctologist in Amravati
Anorectal problems are common but are often ignored because patients may feel embarrassed or uncomfortable discussing symptoms related to the anal and rectal region.
For women in particular, the availability of a female proctologist can make it easier to discuss sensitive symptoms and seek timely medical evaluation.
Dr. Swati provides consultation for women and other patients experiencing symptoms such as:
- Bleeding during or after passing stool
- Anal pain or burning
- Pain during bowel movements
- Piles or hemorrhoids
- Anal fissure
- Anal itching or irritation
- Swelling around the anus
- Perianal abscess
- Discharge from an opening near the anus
- Fistula-in-ano
- Recurrent anorectal problems
- Constipation-associated anorectal symptoms
A clinical examination is important because symptoms such as bleeding, pain or swelling should not automatically be assumed to be caused by piles. Correct diagnosis helps determine the most appropriate treatment.
Dr. Swati has a special clinical interest in the management of piles, anal fissure, fistula-in-ano and other anorectal disorders.
Treatment is selected according to the diagnosis, severity of disease, symptoms, previous treatment and individual patient factors.
Depending on the condition, treatment options may include:
- Medical treatment
- Dietary and lifestyle modification
- Bowel-habit correction
- Injection/sclerotherapy for selected piles
- Ksharasutra therapy for appropriately selected cases
- Laser-assisted anorectal procedures
- Other minimally invasive procedures
- Conventional surgical treatment when indicated
- Post-treatment care and follow-up
The objective is not to use one procedure for every patient, but to select the most appropriate treatment for the individual clinical situation.
Laser-Assisted Treatment for Anorectal Diseases
Dr. Swati provides consultation for laser-assisted treatment of selected anorectal conditions.
Laser technology may be used as part of minimally invasive treatment approaches for appropriately selected patients, particularly in certain cases of piles and other anorectal disorders.
Before recommending a laser-assisted procedure, the patient is clinically evaluated to determine:
- The exact diagnosis
- Severity and extent of disease
- Presence of associated conditions
- Previous treatment history
- Suitability for a minimally invasive procedure
The patient is counselled regarding the available treatment options, expected benefits, limitations, alternatives and follow-up requirements.
Laser treatment is not required for every anorectal condition. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may instead involve medicines, dietary and lifestyle measures, injection therapy, Ksharasutra, another minimally invasive procedure or conventional surgery.
This individualized approach helps ensure that the procedure selected is appropriate for the patient’s actual condition.
Piles / Hemorrhoid Treatment
Dr. Swati provides evaluation and treatment for piles (hemorrhoids) ranging from early symptomatic disease to cases requiring procedural or surgical management.
Depending on the grade and clinical findings, treatment may include:
- Medical management
- Fibre, fluid and dietary advice
- Management of constipation
- Lifestyle modification
- Injection/sclerotherapy for selected cases
- Laser-assisted procedures where appropriate
- Other minimally invasive procedures
- Surgery for advanced or appropriately selected cases
The treatment plan is based on the grade of piles, symptoms, examination findings and individual patient requirements.
Anal Fissure Treatment
Anal fissure can cause severe pain, burning and bleeding, particularly during and after bowel movements.
Dr. Swati evaluates patients presenting with:
- Sharp or burning anal pain
- Pain during defecation
- Bleeding
- Recurrent fissure
- Constipation-associated symptoms
- Chronic anal fissure
Treatment depends on whether the fissure is acute or chronic and whether associated factors such as constipation, hard stools or other anorectal problems are present.
Management may include medicines, bowel-habit modification, dietary measures, Ayurvedic therapies, appropriate procedures or surgery when clinically indicated.
Fistula-in-Ano Treatment
Dr. Swati also provides consultation for patients with fistula-in-ano, a condition that may present with recurrent swelling, pain, discharge or a persistent opening near the anus.
Common symptoms include:
- Recurrent perianal swelling
- Pus or discharge
- A persistent opening near the anus
- Recurrent abscess
- Pain or discomfort
- Repeated episodes of infection
Fistula treatment requires appropriate assessment of the fistula tract and its relationship with surrounding structures.
Depending on the anatomy and complexity of the fistula, treatment options may include Ksharasutra therapy, minimally invasive procedures or surgical management.
Ksharasutra Treatment
As an MS (Ayurveda) – Shalya Tantra specialist, Dr. Swati has an interest in Ayurvedic para-surgical management of selected anorectal conditions.
Ksharasutra is a specialized medicated thread technique described in classical Ayurvedic surgical practice and is particularly associated with the management of selected cases of fistula-in-ano.
Ksharasutra is not automatically suitable for every fistula. Patient selection requires clinical assessment of the fistula’s location, tract, extent and complexity.
Where appropriate, the treatment plan and expected course are explained to the patient before proceeding.
Comfortable & Confidential Consultation for Women
One of the important aspects of Dr. Swati’s practice is providing women with the opportunity to consult a female proctologist for sensitive anorectal conditions.
Women may delay consultation for piles, fissure or other anorectal symptoms because of embarrassment or discomfort.
Dr. Swati aims to provide a consultation environment based on:
Privacy → Respectful communication → Appropriate examination → Clear diagnosis → Treatment discussion → Follow-up
Women are encouraged to seek medical assessment rather than continuing to tolerate persistent pain, bleeding, swelling or other anorectal symptoms.
Women’s Anorectal Health
Anorectal problems can occur in women at different stages of life, including during and after pregnancy, with constipation, changes in bowel habits and other lifestyle or physiological factors.
Dr. Swati provides evaluation and treatment for women with anorectal complaints and helps determine whether the condition is best managed with:
- Medical treatment
- Dietary and lifestyle measures
- Ayurvedic therapy
- Injection treatment
- Ksharasutra
- Laser-assisted treatment where appropriate
- Other minimally invasive procedures
- Surgery when indicated
The treatment decision is based on the individual patient’s diagnosis and clinical findings.
In addition to her proctology and surgical practice, Dr. Swati has clinical experience in Ayurveda and Panchakarma.
Panchakarma is a classical Ayurvedic therapeutic approach and is not a standardized “detox” programme that is identical for every individual.
Treatment is planned after appropriate assessment, taking into consideration the patient’s symptoms, health status, constitution, therapeutic objectives and suitability for the proposed therapy.
Depending on the clinical requirement, treatment may involve appropriate preparation, Panchakarma procedures, diet and lifestyle guidance and post-treatment care.
Dr. Swati also has a clinical interest in women’s Ayurvedic healthcare.
Her areas of interest include selected women’s health conditions and traditional Ayurvedic approaches such as:
Uttarbasti
Uttarbasti is a specialized Ayurvedic procedure described in classical Ayurvedic literature and may be considered in selected gynecological and urinary conditions following appropriate assessment.
It is not a universal treatment and requires appropriate patient selection, counselling and procedural precautions.
Masanumasik Garbhasanskar
Dr. Swati is also interested in Masanumasik Garbhasanskar, an Ayurvedic approach to month-wise antenatal care.
It focuses on appropriate diet, lifestyle, mental well-being and traditional Ayurvedic antenatal principles during different stages of pregnancy.
Pregnancy-related care should always be individualized and coordinated with appropriate obstetric care when required.
Dr. Swati’s postgraduate specialization in Shalya Tantra forms the foundation of her surgical practice.
Shalya Tantra encompasses Ayurvedic principles of surgical and para-surgical management. Her clinical approach combines these principles with appropriate clinical examination, diagnostic evaluation and contemporary surgical understanding.
Her particular areas of interest include anorectal disorders, para-surgical treatments, Ksharasutra and minimally invasive anorectal procedures.

Patient-Centred Clinical Approach
Dr. Swati believes that anorectal conditions should be evaluated without embarrassment and treated according to the actual diagnosis and severity of disease.
Her clinical approach emphasizes:
Clinical Assessment → Correct Diagnosis → Individualized Treatment → Appropriate Procedure Selection → Patient Counselling → Follow-up
Not every patient with piles requires surgery, and not every anorectal condition requires laser treatment or Ksharasutra.
The appropriate treatment is selected after clinical evaluation, with the patient’s condition, treatment requirements and preferences taken into consideration.
