Haemorrhoid Removal

Hemorrhoids are enlarged, bulging blood vessels in the anus and lower rectum. Hemorrhoid banding is a procedure to remove them. Banding is used to treat painful, swollen hemorrhoids. The procedure is most often done for the following reasons:

  • Severely bleeding hemorrhoids
  • Severely painful hemorrhoids
  • Hemorrhoid containing a blood clot (thrombosed hemorrhoid)
  • Hemorrhoids that protrude through the anus (prolapsed hemorrhoids)

The banding procedure needs to be done using an endoscope. Your doctor will place a small elastic band just above the pile which will cut off the blood supply to the pile, causing it to die and fall off after a few days. The area left behind will heal up naturally.
