Given that your piles have continued for a year following childbirth, minimally invasive techniques like rubber band ligation or surgical options like hemorrhoidectomy may offer a long-term solution. To determine the best course of action and assess the size and nature of your hemorrhoids, you should speak with a colorectal surgeon.
