Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in the lower rectum and anus, causing discomfort and other symptoms. They can be classified into internal and external types based on their location.
Symptoms: Common symptoms include itching, pain, bleeding during bowel movements, and swelling around the anus. Internal hemorrhoids may not cause pain but can lead to rectal bleeding, while external hemorrhoids can be painful and may develop blood clots.
Treatment:
Non-Surgical: Includes lifestyle changes such as increasing fiber intake, using over-the-counter creams, and taking sitz baths to alleviate symptoms.
Minimally Invasive Procedures: Techniques like rubber band ligation, sclerotherapy, and infrared coagulation can treat hemorrhoids by reducing blood flow to the affected veins.
Surgical Options: In cases of severe hemorrhoids, procedures like hemorrhoidectomy or stapled hemorrhoidopexy may be performed to remove or reposition the hemorrhoids.
Effective treatment can relieve symptoms and improve quality of life for individuals suffering from hemorrhoids.
