Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in or around the anus and lower rectum. They can cause pain, itching, and bleeding. Many people ask, -do hemorrhoids go away?- Small hemorrhoids may improve with home care, but persistent cases often need expert attention.
He begins by reviewing your symptoms, bowel habits, diet and lifestyle. A careful visual inspection of the anorectal area and a digital rectal exam help identify external hemorrhoids, prolapse and any areas of tenderness.
Using a small, lubricated anoscope, Dr. Chadha directly visualizes internal hemorrhoids, assesses their size and degree of prolapse, and checks for any other mucosal changes.
For patients with persistent bleeding, anemia or risk factors for other colorectal conditions, he may recommend a flexible sigmoidoscopy or full colonoscopy to rule out polyps, fissures or malignancy.
Combining findings from the exam and scopes, Dr. Chadha grades your hemorrhoids (I-IV) and tailors a treatment plan-from dietary changes to in-office procedures-designed for quick relief and lasting results.
