QuestionHello doctor,
I have mild hemorrhoids. Yesterday, I had diarrhea and had many bowel movements, leading to protruding hemorrhoids. Currently, I have a burning pain in the anal area and can't completely insert the hemorrhoid with my hands. Doctor, can you tell me if Longo's hemorrhoid surgery is effective?
