Hello,
With the question "Can hemorrhoids be cured completely? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Hemorrhoids are a normal physiological state.

This is a common disease of the group of anorectal diseases with a high prevalence of up to 40% of the population, seen in both sexes.
Hemorrhoids are divided into two types, internal hemorrhoids and external hemorrhoids, based on the anatomy of the anus and rectum, separated by the anal sphincter and the dentate line.
Common early symptoms are bloody stools, in addition, there are other symptoms such as prolapsed hemorrhoids, swelling in the anal area, pain due to occlusion, anal fissures, or inflammation and edema. , necrosis due to strangulation, some also cause chronic anemia.
Diseases caused by many causes such as prolonged constipation or diarrhea, increased abdominal pressure, cirrhosis of the liver, sedentary lifestyle, inactivity, tumor pressing on the anus - rectum or pregnant women.
The diagnosis is quite easy based on symptoms and endoscopy.
