Hemorrhoid Treatment Specialists | Manhattan Gastroenterology – Union Square

Our doctors, top-rated NYC gastroenterologists, and hemorrhoids specialists at Manhattan Gastroenterology offer a variety of hemorrhoids treatments based on the severity of the condition. Topical medications and a healthier diet can alleviate the symptoms in mild cases. In other cases, laser hemorrhoid treatment, IRC (Infrared Coagulation), hemorrhoid banding, or, rarely, surgery to physically remove the hemorrhoids can be performed.

What Are Hemorrhoids?
Hemorrhoids are swollen and inflamed veins that can cause discomfort and bleeding in the rectum and anus. If you suspect hemorrhoidal disease, you should always be evaluated with a thorough consultation and examination by a physician for an accurate diagnosis, treatment plan and to exclude a serious illness or condition such as colon or anal cancer. Hemorrhoidal disease is just one of the many causes of rectal bleeding and lesions around the anus that need evaluation. Rectal bleeding can be a symptom of any type of colorectal or anal cancer, which can be cured if detected early.

Piles are extremely common. Piles are a very common occurrence. Approximately half of the population develops symptoms of this health condition by the age of 50 [1]. Internal hemorrhoids form inside your anal canal, whereas external hemorrhoids form under the skin around your anus. If blood pools in an external hemorrhoid, it may form a clot called a thrombus. This condition can result in severe pain and inflammation.

This health condition can be very painful. For the best hemorrhoid treatment options, including laser hemorrhoid treatments, see our NYC hemorrhoids doctors. Emergency appointments are available at the NYC doctor’s office.

Our doctors at Manhattan Gastroenterology are not only top-rated NYC gastroenterologists. They’re also top-of-the-line hemorrhoid specialists. They offer a variety of hemorrhoidal disease treatments, including minimally invasive laser hemorrhoid treatments and other effective options.

In mild cases, topical medications and conservative treatment such as sitz baths and laxatives can help to alleviate symptoms. In other cases, we can perform IRC (Infrared Coagulation), hemorrhoid banding, or rarely surgery to remove the piles. A complete evaluation and diagnosis by your hemorrhoid doctor are very important for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

When Should I See My Hemorrhoid Doctor?
You should see a hemorrhoid specialist if you feel discomfort and pain in the rectum, especially when you sit or notice blood when wiping.
