Treatment

Медицина предлагает три варианта лечения pathologies: conservative, minimally invasive and surgical. It all depends on the course of the disease and its form. In the case of conservative treatment, various antihemorrhoidal suppositories, creams, and ointments are prescribed. Often, along with drugs prescribed herbal preparations with hemostatic and anti-inflammatory properties (clover, chamomile, nettle).

The minimally invasive method is recommended whenconservative does not have the proper result. Latex rings are superimposed on the hemorrhoidal knots and in time the “bump” simply dries out and disappears. This procedure is painless and effective. If these two methods do not help, surgery is required.
