A member asked:
Is it necessary to remove a hemarroid? what are the best creams and ways to remove it without surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not Necessary: Topical cortisone creams that are over the counter work just fine, like anusol hc1 (1% cortisone). If an internal hemorrhoid is bleeding or prolapsing a specialist can band or laser these in the office.
