What are the available hemorrhoids treatment out there?

Many choices: If you are not better with store shelf products, it's time to visit your doctor. You need to be sure that it is hemorrhoid and not a polyp or tumor that you are dealing with. Suppository, simple office procedures include injection, banding and infrared coagulation can help if applied appropriately. Surgical options include hemorrhoidopexy (suspension) and the traditional excision.

Many: First is diet and fluids, stop reading on toilet, excercise regularly to avoid constipation, correct constipation and or diarrhea. Most hemorrhoids reolve with above. After that is toopical meds, rubber band ligation of internal hemorrhoids, and various forms of hemorrhoidal surgical removal. 95 % of hemorrhoid issues are best treated with diet and fluids.
