A member asked:
I have had 2 hemorrhoids for like 4 months now. what would they do to cure it if i went to the doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many options: Hemorrhoids are dilated veins around the anus, and treatment options include topical creams and a variety of procedures to ablate the veins. A colorectal surgeon would have the most options for repair, but its fine to start with your primary care provider if it persists or gets worse.
