Understanding Hemorrhoids: Causes and Symptoms

Hemorrhoids are a common condition that affects many individuals, particularly those over the age of 50. They can develop due to various factors, including increased pressure in the lower rectum, chronic constipation, or prolonged sitting.

Types of Hemorrhoids

1. Internal Hemorrhoids: These occur inside the rectum and are usually painless, though they may cause bleeding during bowel movements.
2. External Hemorrhoids: Located under the skin around the anus, external hemorrhoids can be painful and may swell or bleed.
3. Thrombosed Hemorrhoids: These occur when a blood clot forms in an external hemorrhoid, leading to severe pain and swelling.

Common Symptoms of Hemorrhoids

1. Pain or discomfort in the anal region
2. Itching or irritation around the anus
3. Swelling or lumps near the anus
4. Bleeding during bowel movements
5. Mucus discharge from the anus

If you experience any of these symptoms, it is essential to seek medical advice promptly to prevent complications and receive appropriate treatment.

Non-Surgical Hemorrhoid Treatments

For mild to moderate hemorrhoids, we offer several non-surgical treatment options that can be performed on an outpatient basis:

1. Rubber Band Ligation: A small rubber band is placed around the base of the hemorrhoid, cutting off its blood supply, causing it to shrink and eventually fall off.
2. Sclerotherapy: A chemical solution is injected into the hemorrhoid to shrink it.
3. Infrared Coagulation: A device uses infrared light to coagulate the blood vessels in the hemorrhoid, leading to its shrinkage.

Minimally Invasive Procedures

For more severe cases, our specialists may recommend minimally invasive procedures that offer quicker recovery and less discomfort:

1. Hemorrhoidectomy: Surgical removal of hemorrhoids, typically recommended for large or thrombosed hemorrhoids.
2. Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy: A procedure that involves using a stapling device to reposition the hemorrhoid and reduce its blood supply, causing it to shrink.
3. Laser Hemorrhoid Surgery: A laser is used to remove or shrink hemorrhoids with minimal bleeding and a quicker recovery time.
