Haemorrhoid Surgery

Surgery for haemorrhoids that persist

Haemorrhoid surgery treats haemorrhoids that do not respond to conservative measures. It is not the first step for every case, and many people are treated without an operation.

• Bleeding, prolapse and discomfort are reviewed before surgery is discussed
• Conservative measures are tried or properly considered first
• The operation is aimed at haemorrhoids that keep causing trouble

Conservative measures before an operation

Clinic care and other non-surgical measures are part of the decision. Surgery is reserved for disease that has not settled with those measures.

• Bowel habit, straining and local symptoms are discussed
• Non-surgical treatment is continued when it is still the better option
• You are told why an operation would or would not help

Care after haemorrhoid surgery

Follow-up focuses on pain, bleeding and healing. The area needs time, and the review is there to check progress.

• Comfort and any bleeding are discussed at review
• How to keep bowel movements comfortable is explained after surgery
• A further check is arranged if healing is slower than expected
