Hemorrhoids, inflamed veins in the anus or rectum, may bring about pain, discomfort, and bleeding. When symptoms are not relieved by conservative measures such as dietary modifications, topical creams, or lifestyle adjustments, surgery is an effective remedy. Various surgical treatments exist for hemorrhoid removal, each suited to the severity and type of the condition. Common surgical procedures are hemorrhoidectomy, the removal of hemorrhoids in their entirety, which is usually reserved for extreme cases. This procedure provides long-term relief but can have a longer recovery period. For less invasive procedures, stapled hemorrhoidopexy is most often utilized. This procedure is done by stapling the surgical treatment of hemorrhoids back into position, resulting in less pain and a faster recovery than with conventional surgery.The other choice, rubber band ligation, consists of a rubber band that is placed around the hemorrhoid base, cutting it off from its blood supply, shrinking, and eventually falling off. It tends to be for smaller hemorrhoids and is done in a medical office.
