Haemorrhoid treatment
Haemorrhoids, also known as piles are lumps that occur inside and around the anal passage. They happen as a results of weakness and engorgement of veins within the anal canal resulting in protruding lumps, bleeding, pain or discomfort.
Most haemorrhoids can be managed without surgery, however in late stages surgery gives the best outcome. We do offer rubber banding treatment for smaller internal haemorrhoids too. Note of caution: if you do experience bleeding from the back passage, do not always assume it is haemorrhoids. Please seek advice from your general practitioner.
