What is Hemorrhoid Surgery?
Hemorrhoid surgery is a surgical intervention to treat severe or persistent hemorrhoids—particularly grade III or IV cases—when non-surgical treatments like dietary changes, creams, or rubber-band ligation are ineffective. Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in the rectal or anal area that may cause pain, bleeding, and discomfort.
Surgical techniques vary depending on the severity and type of hemorrhoids, and include:
- Rubber band ligation – for internal hemorrhoids; involves tying off the hemorrhoid to cut its blood supply.
- Stapled hemorrhoidectomy (PPH) – repositions prolapsed hemorrhoids with less pain and faster recovery.
- Traditional hemorrhoidectomy – surgical excision of large or external hemorrhoids, offering long-term relief.
- Laser hemorrhoidectomy or hemorrhoidoplasty – minimally invasive, with reduced bleeding and recurrence.
Procedures are performed under local, spinal, or general anesthesia, usually lasting 30–60 minutes. Recovery time can range from 1 to 6 weeks, depending on the surgical method. The aim is to provide long-term relief from bleeding, pain, prolapse, and to improve quality of life.
