Alternative Treatment of Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids can be treated at every stage. Many people who suffer from them find relief by means of home treatment. In case they have not succeeded to alleviate the symptoms, they usually undergo nonsurgical treatments, the so called fixative procedures. These techniques are most successful in hemorrhoid units from the first and second stage. If the hemorrhoids have got severe - third and fourth stages, surgical treatment is recommended.
What are the fixative procedures?
Fixative procedures are alternative for surgery of the hemorrhoids. They include:
• Light coagulation: This procedure stops the blood circulation to the hemorrhoid unit by causing the affected tissue to shrink and die.
• Rubber band ligation: This method uses a rubber band to tie the base of the hemorrhoid unit and cut it off from the blood circulation and as a result it dies and falls of in about a week.
• Cryotherapy: A device called Zeroid has recently been available as an alternative treatment of hemorrhoids. This uses cryotherapy as a home treatment procedure. The device is a plastic cylinder 15 mm in diameter and 6 sm long and contains a gel which could be frozen in the freezer or in the refrigerator. The device is introduced into the rectum. As it taws in the rectal canal, the temperature of the inside tissues gets lower. The action of thawing takes up from 5 to 10 minutes. The devise is inserted twice daily and the treatment continues for about 3 weeks. This method relieves the symptoms - eliminates discomfort and pain and stops bleeding episodes. In some cases a considerable shrinkage of the hemorroidal lumps can be observed.
• Laser coagulation: Lasers used in medicine provide an alternative to the conservative treatment of hemorrhoids. Laser coagulation is a relatively easy and painless procedure which cuts off blood supply to the hemorroidal unit.
What are the natural cures for alternative treatment of hemorrhoids?
Natural remedies are easy to be applied at home and keep the hemorrhoids of becoming worse or of recurring after fixative procedures. These include:
• Lidocaine: Applied on the affected area in the form of a jelly or a spray, it numbs the skins and alleviates the pain and irritation from hemorrhoids.
• Topical analgetics: They offer a temporary pain relief and do not fight the whole range of the hemorrhoid symptoms.
• High-fiber diet: To strengthen the veins of the anus and rectum and prevent hemorrhoids occurrence, one should include in his diet cherries, blackberries, butcher's broom and flavonoids. Tha latter are plant pigments which are found in fruit, soy beans and tea.
