Is surgery necessary for hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids are currently the most common symptom in clinical medicine. Many people often delay their studies and even work due to hemorrhoid problems. Since the onset of hemorrhoids is intermittent, many people have always had the question of whether surgery is necessary for hemorrhoids. For many people with hemorrhoids, everyone holds the attitude of not having surgery if possible, and believes that as long as they pay more attention to their daily living and diet, they will be fine.

Regarding the question of whether surgery is necessary to treat hemorrhoids, it has to be said that surgery is best for treating hemorrhoids, because if patients with hemorrhoids want to stay away from the impact of hemorrhoids on their lives forever, they must choose to remove hemorrhoids through surgery.

1. Patients with frequent bleeding in stool, large amount of blood in stool, and unsatisfactory effects of conservative or drug treatment.

2. The hemorrhoids are large and protrude from the anus after defecation and cannot be retracted on their own. They need to be supported by hands, rested in supine position, or subjected to hot compresses before they can be retracted into the anus. 3. Hemorrhoids prolapse, incarceration, external hemorrhoids edema, and anal pain.

4. External hemorrhoids are large in size and often inflamed with swelling and pain.

5. Thrombosed external hemorrhoids, large hemorrhoids that cannot be absorbed by themselves, and severe pain.

Hemorrhoids are a normal physiological structure. If they are completely removed due to pathological changes, their cushioning function will be lost and the sealing performance of the anus will be affected. Therefore, hemorrhoids cannot be completely removed, and of course they cannot be cured. For some patients with annular hemorrhoids, the anal function is often affected to a certain extent due to the removal of hemorrhoidal tissue. If surgical treatment is really necessary, some hemorrhoidal tissue should be retained. It is currently believed that hemorrhoids without symptoms do not require any treatment. Treatment is only considered when bleeding occurs or the lump protrudes from the anus and affects life. The treatment measures are mainly internal medicine treatment, such as laxatives, local anti-inflammatory drugs, etc., which have a good effect in controlling symptoms. There are many surgical treatments for hemorrhoids, including injection therapy, electronic laser therapy, cryotherapy and surgical resection, each with certain indications and advantages and disadvantages.
