Introduction
It's a common misconception that you can't treat hemorrhoids with surgery.
In fact, there are several surgical procedures available to treat piles and
they can each be effective if performed by an experienced surgeon. The best
treatment for your hemorrhoid symptoms will depend on their severity and
location as well as other factors such as age and whether you're pregnant at
the time of surgery.
Hemorrhoidectomy.
·
A doctor will make an incision above the anus
and remove the hemorrhoid.
·
The doctor will then stitch the area closed.
·
The procedure takes about 15 minutes and can be
done in the doctor's office or hospital under local or general anesthesia.
Stapled hemorrhoidopexy.
Stapled hemorrhoidopexy, also known as stapled hemorrhoidectomy, is a
surgical procedure to remove your hemorrhoids. It's usually done under local
anesthesia and usually has few side effects. The surgeon uses a stapler to cut
the hemorrhoids and then staples them back together. This cuts off the blood
supply to the swollen tissue, causing it to shrink and fall off within two
weeks of surgery.
Rubber band ligation.
If you have small hemorrhoids, this is a good option for you. It's a
minimally invasive procedure that does not require surgery and has a high
success rate.
You should talk to your doctor about whether this treatment is right for
you, since there are some risks involved. However, it can be an effective
treatment option if other treatments haven't worked or they aren't well-suited
to your situation.
Laser or infrared coagulation.
Laser or infrared coagulation is a minimally invasive procedure. It is used
to treat bleeding hemorrhoids, and also for shrinking hemorrhoids that are
causing pain.
A doctor will usually use this procedure if you have an abscessed dental
abscess, an anal fissure (tear), or internal hemorrhoids (piles). The doctor
may also use it if your prolapsed piles have caused an obstruction in the anus
and rectum.
The doctor will cleanse the area before they use the laser on your pile
tissue. A local block may be used to numb your skin around the pile so that you
feel no pain during this process. The doctor will then insert a thin probe into
each pile through its opening in order to deliver heat directly into them until
they shrink down to normal size again or disappear altogether depending on how
severe your case has been diagnosed as being
Sclerotherapy.
Sclerotherapy is the injection of a chemical solution into the hemorrhoids
to shrink them. The procedure can be done in your doctor's office, during which
time they will inject the solution directly into the hemorrhoid and then wait
for it to take effect. The side effects of sclerotherapy can include itching,
burning and pain.
You can treat your hemorrhoids with surgery, depending on their severity.
·
Surgery is usually only used for severe cases of
hemorrhoids.
·
You may need to have surgery if:
·
You have bleeding hemorrhoids.
·
Your painful hemorrhoids are not getting better
with other treatments.
·
Your prolapsed (out-of-place) hemorrhoids have
not improved with other treatments or worsened over time.
·
If you are considering having surgery, consult
an expert on piles treatment who can help you determine the best approach to
take and whether or not it's right for your condition
Conclusion
Hemorrhoid surgery is a safe and effective treatment option for people with
hemorrhoids. It can help you get rid of the pain, bleeding and itching
associated with this condition. In most cases, you can expect to experience a
complete recovery within a couple weeks after undergoing surgery.
