What is Laser Hemorrhoid Treatment?
Laser hemorrhoid treatment is a minimally invasive surgical method used in the treatment of hemorrhoids. This treatment is based on the process of targeting and shrinking enlarged veins in the anal area with laser energy. Laser hemorrhoid treatment is usually preferred to relieve the symptoms of hemorrhoids such as pain, itching, bleeding and swelling. When the laser beam is applied to the hemorrhoid tissue, it burns the veins, which leads to the cessation of blood flow and shrinking of the hemorrhoids. This results in a quick and effective cure without the need for surgical intervention.
How Is Laser Hemorrhoid Treatment Performed?
Laser treatment is usually performed under local anesthesia. During the procedure, the patient remains awake but does not feel any pain. The steps of laser hemorrhoid treatment are as follows:
- Preparation and Anesthesia:
Before the treatment, the patient is numbed with regional anesthesia. Thus, no pain or discomfort is felt during the procedure. - Laser Application:
The laser device is placed in the anal area and the hemorrhoid tissue is targeted with laser light. The laser beam is sent into the hemorrhoid veins and constricts the veins, stopping the blood flow. This causes the hemorrhoids to shrink and heal. - Recovery Process:
After the procedure, patients can usually return to their daily activities immediately. Post-treatment pain is minimal and patients return to normal within a while.
Conditions and Symptoms Requiring Laser Hemorrhoid Treatment
Laser hemorrhoid treatment is generally recommended for the following conditions:
- Severe Hemorrhoids: Hemorrhoids characterized by severe pain, bleeding and swelling.
- Chronic hemorrhoids: Hemorrhoids caused by prolonged constipation or excessive straining.
- Surgical Intervention Alternative: Patients who are not suitable for traditional surgical interventions or those who want to accelerate the healing process after treatment.
