Answered by Master, Doctor Hoang Duc Nam - Department of General Surgery, Vinmec Nha Trang International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “Can the Longo method treat mild hemorrhoids? ”, the doctor answered as follows:
As your description, maybe your hemorrhoids are in grade 3 or 4. You can perform surgery according to Longo method with grade 2 - 3 hemorrhoids. With grade 4 hemorrhoids ( cannot be pushed in), or lighter hemorrhoids with thromboembolism, hemorrhage, superinfection, with excess skin folds (external hemorrhoids) ... then it is necessary to combine these hemorrhoids with Longo surgery. You need to visit a doctor and get specific advice from a specialist.
If you still have questions about Longo's method of treating hemorrhoids, you can go to a medical facility under Vinmec Health System for early examination and treatment. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
