What is Hemorrhoids Coagulation?

Hemorrhoids coagulation, also known as infrared coagulation (IRC), is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat internal hemorrhoids. This technique utilizes infrared light to target and coagulate the blood vessels that supply the hemorrhoids, leading to their shrinkage and eventual removal.

Symptoms of Hemorrhoids

Recognizing the symptoms of hemorrhoids can help in seeking timely treatment. Common symptoms include:

• Rectal Bleeding: Bright red blood on toilet paper, in the stool, or in the toilet bowl after bowel movements.
• Pain and Discomfort: Itching, burning, or pain around the anus, especially during or after bowel movements.
• Swelling: Swollen areas around the anal region that may feel tender or sore.
• Prolapse: Internal hemorrhoids may protrude from the anus, causing discomfort and requiring manual repositioning.
• Mucus Discharge: Presence of mucus or a sticky discharge around the anal area.

Diagnosis of Hemorrhoids

Accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment. The diagnostic process includes:

• Medical History and Physical Examination: Discussing symptoms with your healthcare provider and conducting a physical examination to identify signs of hemorrhoids.
• Digital Rectal Examination (DRE): A gloved finger is inserted into the rectum to check for abnormalities and assess the hemorrhoids.
• Anoscopy: A small, lighted instrument called an anoscope is inserted into the anal canal to closely examine the hemorrhoids.
• Sigmoidoscopy or Colonoscopy: If necessary, these procedures may be performed to examine the rectum and colon for other potential issues.

How Hemorrhoids Coagulation Works

Diagnosis and Preparation:

• • Initial Evaluation: A thorough assessment is conducted to determine the suitability of coagulation for your hemorrhoids. This includes discussing your symptoms and performing a physical examination.

Procedure:

• • Anesthesia: The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. The area around the hemorrhoids is numbed to ensure a pain-free experience.
  • Application of Infrared Light: Using a specialized device, infrared light is directed at the hemorrhoids. This light causes the blood vessels to coagulate, or clot, reducing blood flow to the hemorrhoids.
  • Outcome: As the coagulated hemorrhoid tissue loses its blood supply, it gradually shrinks and is absorbed by the body. This process helps alleviate symptoms and provides long-term relief.

Benefits:

• • Minimally Invasive: The procedure requires no incisions, resulting in less pain and a shorter recovery period.
  • Effective: It effectively targets the internal hemorrhoids, leading to significant reduction in symptoms.
  • Quick Recovery: Most patients experience a swift recovery and can resume their daily activities shortly after the procedure.

Advantages of Hemorrhoids Coagulation

• Reduced Discomfort: The technique is less painful compared to traditional surgical methods.
• Fast Procedure: The treatment is usually completed within a few minutes.
• Minimal Downtime: Patients can often return to normal activities almost immediately after the procedure.
• Effective Long-Term Relief: Provides significant relief from symptoms by targeting the source of the problem.
