What does it take to shrink hemorrhoids?
When can we say bye bye to hemorrhoids? Is it really hard to treat
them? Is there a hemorrhoid cure?
Through the numerous extensive studies done about
the inner workings of hemorrhoids, experts were able to pin point how
to successfully treat hemorrhoids with minimal pain and bleeding. They
learned that by cutting off their blood supply, it will result in their
shrinkage. With this approach, in order to shrink hemorrhoids, there
would be less pain and bleeding when compared to making an incision to
cut away the hemorrhoid from the skin.
Many
hemorrhoid treatment options exist using this approach and fixative
procedures are one of them.
Fixative procedures are mostly
out-patient treatments. They are performed to treat internal
hemorrhoids, specifically grade one that do not respond to dietary
modifications and conservative management, as well as grade two and
three. When performed correctly, these procedures should not be painful.
Fixative procedure such as rubber band
ligation is a technique originally described by Barron in
1963. It is the most commonly used out-patient treatment. This is done
with anoscopy to identify the location of the
hemorrhoids. The hemorrhoids are then tied at the base with rubber
bands, therefore cutting off its blood flow.
An alternative to rubber band ligation is the
injection sclerotherapy. This is done by injecting phenol
oil into the hemorrhoid to cut off blood supply and in turn
lead to tissue necrosis. It has a lower success rate as compared to
rubber band ligation.
Another procedure to shrink hemorrhoids is coagulation
therapy using light, lasers or electricity. Coagulation
therapy uses an intense beam of infrared light. Heat produced causes
scar tissue, which cuts off the blood flow through the hemorrhoid.
Additionally,
many herbal plants also claim to have the necessary
properties to shrink hemorrhoids. Witch hazel and horse chestnut are
good examples. Their astringent property is responsible for their
ability to shrink swellings. These two herbal plants are also found in
many all-natural supplements such as Venapro. Venapro is a blend of
natural herbal extracts that helps relieve pain and reduce swelling. It
has been tested to be safe and free from side effects. Natural health
supplements
can help you achieve optimum health and wellness naturally.
Aside from herbal plants and supplements, creams
and ointments also contain special preparations that can
shrink swelling caused by hemorrhoids, such as Preparation H.
Also,
a new surgical procedure called stapled hemorrhoidectomy
is becoming more popular than the traditional surgical procedure hemorrhoidectomy.
It was introduced by Longo in 1998 as a treatment for protruding
hemorrhoids. A circular stapling gun is used to cut a doughnut of
mucosa in order to lift the hemorrhoid back within the canal. The
stapling also cuts off its blood flow, causing the hemorrhoid to
shrink. Since no incision has been made, there is less post-operative
pain and faster recovery than the traditional hemorrhoidectomy.
Remember, the sooner you can shrink hemorrhoids, the faster they will
heal. Also, the more irritated they get, the larger they become and the
larger they get, the harder and longer they will take to heal. Take
note of this, then plan your course of action and decide what treatment
option is best for you.
