Early Stage Hemorrhoids: Complete Solution to the Problem
What are hemorrhoids?
Hemorrhoids are one of the most common diseases and one of the most common reasons for patients to visit a gastroenterologist. A percentage of 14% to 16% of adult men and women are exposed to the disease and the age at first diagnosis is typically lower for men, compared to women, as well as the age-adjusted incidence rate (AIR) for circulatory system diseases.1
It is important to note that hemorrhoids treatment in "Stage I" is the most effective. What are the first hemorrhoids symptoms that can be treated most effectively with treatment?
Hemorrhoids symptoms: Bleeding and pain during defecation.
The main risk factors for the onset of the disease are lack of physical activity and poor diet, which lead to impaired microcirculation, inflammation of the venous walls, venous congestion and, consequently, the appearance of unpleasant symptoms.
The doctor decides on the treatment to be chosen based on the results of the clinical examination as well as the symptoms reported by the patient. The treatment of hemorrhoids in their early stages is based on conservative treatment. It allows the combination of taking drugs, which improve microcirculation, venous tone and restore blood flow with the use of topical treatment which reduces the pain and burning sensation caused by hemorrhoids.
How to treat hemorrhoids ?
For the hemorrhoids treatment in "Stage I" or in the next stages, the doctor may recommend their surgical removal or one of the following procedures:
- infrared photocoagulation
- sclerotherapy
- ligation of hemorrhoids using rubber rings
- radiotherapy
- laser coagulation
Modern medication allows the effective reduction of both objective and subjective hemorrhoids symptoms, the hemorrhoids treatment in their initial stage has excellent results.
Most drugs for the treatment of the disease are made on the basis of bioflavonoids.
The treatments helps to improve both microcirculation and macrocirculation, thus reducing pain and stopping bleeding,2 and at the same time reducing the number of new hemorrhoidal seizures.3
