Trusted Hemorrhoid Specialist

What Is Hemorrhoid Banding?

Hemorrhoid banding is a non-surgical procedure that can permanently remove hemorrhoids. This procedure is also known as rubber band ligation.

During the procedure, your doctor places a rubber band around the base of the hemorrhoid, which cuts off its blood flow. The hemorrhoid then falls off after a couple of days. A scar forms where the hemorrhoid previously was. And this prevents nearby veins from bulging into the anal canal.

Hemorrhoid banding is the most widely used treatment of symptomatic internal hemorrhoids. Internal hemorrhoids are swollen veins that form in the rectum. You may not see or feel these hemorrhoids because they are often far up in the rectum. But occasionally, internal hemorrhoids may prolapse and fall through the anal opening.

Hemorrhoids can cause uncomfortable symptoms, including:

  • Anal itching
  • Rectal pain
  • Bright red bleeding from the rectum
  • The feeling of incomplete evacuation

But you don’t need to deal with these symptoms any longer. Hemorrhoid banding can relieve your symptoms and improve your quality of life. You can experience the benefits of hemorrhoid banding by visiting our office for 10-15 minutes. Hemorrhoid banding needs no bowel preparation or sedation. And it’s fast and painless. It is that simple.

Hemorrhoid banding can provide a cure for hemorrhoids. The American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons declares hemorrhoid banding as the most effective in-office treatment for grade 1, 2, and 3 hemorrhoids.

Fix the Cause of Your Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoid Banding is designed to treat internal hemorrhoids, which are located in the anal lining. While hemorrhoid banding is not intended for external hemorrhoids, or hemorrhoids that develop outside the rectum, many patients experience improvement of their external hemorrhoid symptoms after their internal hemorrhoids are treated with hemorrhoid banding.

In many cases, patients who suffer from external hemorrhoids also have internal hemorrhoids. Treating internal hemorrhoids can benefit and improve the severity of external hemorrhoids and help relieve numerous symptoms, such as inflammation and swelling. After addressing internal hemorrhoid symptoms, external hemorrhoid symptoms often dissipate and improve.
