Treating External Hemorrhoids The Right Way

Hemorrhoids are swollen rectal veins, a painful problem that affects millions of people worldwide. Hemorrhoids can occur internally or externally, depending on the location of the swollen vein and it is possible to have both internal and external hemorrhoids at the same time.

There are many options for treating external hemorrhoids from simple home remedies to surgical procedures and in this guide I will be introducing the different options that are available to you.

How To Get Rid Of External Hemorrhoids With Surgery 

In most cases of external hemorrhoids, treating and overcoming it mainly involves dietary changes, topical treatments, non-surgical treatments and Sitz baths which will relief the hemorrhoids. However, there are a few cases especially when it involves a greater degree of prolapse when surgery becomes necessary. Here are some surgical choices available to you.


1) Haemorrhoidectomy. Conventional haemorrhoidectomy involves exposing the hemorrhoids using a retractor and surgically removing the hemorrhoidal tissue. The remaining tissue is then sutured and sealed, preventing further hemorrhoids. While this kind of procedure can easily be a day case, most patients are required a 4 to 5 day stay at the hospital, mainly due to poor post-op care and intense pain after the operation.


2) Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy. Also known as Procedure for Prolapse & Hemorrhoids (PPH), this technique uses a circular stapling device to excise the hemorrhoidal tissue. The prolapsed tissue is pulled into the device and removed, while the remaining tissue is stapled. The benefits of PPH over conventional hemorrhoid surgery is less pain, quicker return to normal daily activities and a short hospital stay.

3) Laser Surgery for Hemorrhoids. Using laser light, skilled surgeons are able to target the hemorrhoids with pin point accuracy and precision to remove it completely. This results in less pain and discomfort, less medication and even faster healing. The laser itself seals of nerves and blood vessels, requiring no sutures. Success rate and patient satisfaction is extremely high for this procedure.

But no matter which surgical procedure you are opting for, you need to understand the comlications involved. These include:

a) Severe post-opt pain which can last for 2 to 3 weeks, mainly due to the incisions that were made during operation.

b) Wound infections, though with good post-opt care these are very uncommon.

c) Bleeding, when the sutures rupture.

d) Some incontinence may be experienced due to the discomfort and the fear that bowel movement might open up the wound.

e) Difficulty in urinating. This is very common due to the pain of the incision.

How To Get Rid Of External Hemorrhoids Without Surgery 

Among the thousands of recommended treatments and remedies available today, here are three of the most effective non-surgical methods of treating and getting rid of hemorrhoids.

1) Topical treatments. The best topical treatments can be found in a complete system that usually involves consuming supplements as well. One of the most effective topical treatment for hemorrhoids today is the Venapro Hemorrhoids Treatment. The treatment comes as a pack of two items, a homeopathic formula for topical use to decrease burn and itch and a natural supplement that supports overall colon health. Made entirely from all natural such as including Witch hazel, Horse Chestnut, Arnica, Fluoride of Lime, St. Mary's Thistle just to name a few, these have almost no side effects other than giving you immediate and long term relief to your pain. It comes with a 90 day money back guarantee, so it is safe to give it a try.

2. Rubber band Ligation. Also known as Hemorrhoid Banding, this is a procedure whereby the hemorrhoid is tied off at its base, cutting off blood supply to the tissue and eventually causing the hemorrhoidal tissue to wither and fall away. This is a widely used treatment and is usually done without any need for a hospital stay. However, just like surgery care needs to be taken after the procedure to control the pain and prevent recurrance.

3. Sclerotherapy. This procedure involves injecting a chemical that block blood flow to the hemorrhoidal tissue and is usually used to treat small hemorrhoids. The chemical causes the vein in the tissue to harden and eventually wither and fall off. A little bleeding happens once the hemorrhoids has fallen off and usually last for a week or two but with proper care it is no cause for worry.

I'm pretty sure I have an external hemorrhoid, idk how I got it, the only thing I've been doing differently is working out for the past month, and that supposedly helps prevent them.

It's not that painful, but I still want to get rid of it. Just to be sure though, from what i understand, the at home procedures only relieve the symptoms, not get rid of them?

I've often wondered if treating external hemorrhoids was a big deal or not.

Hi Jodie, thanks for dropping by.

If it is not bothering you physically at all, then my advice is to leave it alone. But if you are embarrassed by it then the only option you have is to remove it. You might want to consult a doctor on the possibility of Rubber Band Ligation. I won't say that it is painless but it is one of the least painful and has the best chance of success in removing the hemorrhoid completely.

Hi,

I am sure I have an external one, maybe a prolapsed one, I have had it for 5 years now, it has never bothered me, it doesnt hurt and my diet is high in fibre and my bowel movemnts have been the same as far as I can ever remember, but I feel as it is very visible (size of a mole or small peanut) it will affect my sex life as I am embarrassed

Iv tried prep H (no changes) and other creams but nothing will make it go away, I am thinking of seeing a doctor but I am not keen on the surgery as I dont want to endure pain over something that is not causing any discomfort but I just want it gone so I can forget about it.
