On the off chance that you are reading this article you’ll be having some issues with hemorrhoids it’s one of the foremost common things that I treat within the office in reality over half the individuals over the age of 50 will have tricky hemorrhoids symptoms now it’s kind of a humiliating topic for a few individuals but the reality is that everyone has hemorrhoids there is an ordinary anatomic structure all hemorrhoids are our blood vessels that are within the lower rectum where the anus is there are two sorts of hemorrhoids internal hemorrhoids and external hemorrhoids.
Internal & External Hemorrhoids
what happens is these hemorrhoids are useful because they work like a shock absorber or a cushion when we go to the restroom the problem is if the hemorrhoids get filled with blood two different things can go on you can have external hemorrhoid which hurts very bad and internal hemorrhoids which don’t hurt but they cause other causes of hemorrhoids symptoms such as bleeding itching incomplete evacuation children cleaning yourself after using the restroom and they can even get so big that they’ll come out of the anus and we call that prolapsing hemorrhoids.
How to pinpoint symptoms of hemorrhoids?
hemorrhoids are piles being bunches of blood results present with most other types bleeding when the patient passed rules occasionally spontaneous bleeding and bleeding may be on and off so even if the bleeding stops patients should not think that the hemorrhoids are gone so if there is a recurrence of bleeding patient should be examined and a correct diagnosis is to be made sometimes patients present with is filling which may be a small protrusion after passing motion and spontaneously goes back or it has to be pushed back external files can present with painful swellings which have to be treated at the earliest the hemorrhoids symptoms are either pay a pain are bleeding are mass per rectum.
Causes of hemorrhoids
Everybody asks is what are the causes of hemorrhoids now how much can be caused by a lot of different things but the most common causes include constipation straining using the restroom frequently heavy lifting and pregnancy are the five most common causes of hemorrhoids there are a few others but this is what most of my patients develop their hemorrhoids from so if you do have bothersome hemorrhoids I’d like to talk about a few the treatments that are out there first thing doctor should try with all patients.
let’s try the conservative route by changing your diet and seeing if we can increase the fiber if you increase the fiber your stool becomes a little bit easier to evacuate and you have less constipation and strain if that doesn’t work a lot of times people will try the over-the-counter remedies such as preparation-h, unfortunately, those are just there to help with some of the hemorrhoids symptoms they don’t take care of the hemorrhoids at all it will help a little bit of itching and we don’t recommend using any of those creams for longer than a week so if you still have hemorrhoids after trying some of the conservative treatments that’s when you come in to see a doctor like me there are three minimally invasive options which most doctors do now.
What are the non-invasive ways to treat hemorrhoids?
The exceptionally intrusive one which is a surgical hemorrhoidectomy my objective is to prevent you from really needing surgery on your hemorrhoids so I’m going to focus on a non-invasive way
- Everyone witnessed that a lot of patients have seen out there is called IRC it is the infrared coagulation what that does is that coagulates the blood vessels of the hemorrhoids now the problem with that is that it is not very effective it’s been shown to only help people with really small hemorrhoids and is it’s completely painless.
