Hemorrhoid Treatment at Colorectal Surgery Associates

Hemorrhoids are swollen blood vessels in the rectum or anus that can cause discomfort, pain, itching, and bleeding. At Colorectal Surgery Associates, we specialize in effective, personalized treatments for hemorrhoids, ranging from non-surgical options to advanced surgical interventions, ensuring you achieve relief and improved quality of life.

Types of Hemorrhoids:

  • Internal Hemorrhoids: Located inside the rectum, these are often painless but may cause bleeding or prolapse outside the anus.
  • External Hemorrhoids: Found under the skin around the anus, these can cause significant discomfort, itching, and sometimes thrombosis (clot formation).

Treatment Options for Hemorrhoids:

Non-Surgical Treatments:

  • Rubber Band Ligation: A minimally invasive procedure to cut off blood supply to the hemorrhoid, causing it to shrink.
  • Sclerotherapy: Injection of a solution that shrinks the hemorrhoid over time.
  • Infrared Coagulation (IRC): A quick, in-office procedure that uses infrared light to treat small hemorrhoids.

Surgical Treatments:

  • Hemorrhoidectomy: Removal of severe or prolapsed hemorrhoids, often for patients with recurring symptoms.
  • Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy: A minimally invasive option to reposition prolapsed hemorrhoids and reduce blood flow to them.
  • Thrombectomy: Removal of a blood clot in a thrombosed external hemorrhoid for immediate pain relief.

Post-Treatment Care:

After your procedure, we provide detailed recovery instructions to minimize discomfort and speed healing. This includes advice on dietary changes, stool softeners, and proper hygiene practices to prevent recurrence.
