A member asked:
Good day, i have had hemorrhoids for the past two years and now they are constant (daily basis). i would like to have them removed under medical aid? can you please advise which doctor/s i should consult?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hemorrhoids: A colorectal surgeon is best qualified to remove hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids may be removed by banding and can be done in the office setting. External hemorrhoids require a surgical procedure for removal,however. Some proctologists can also perform these procedures.
