Piles (Surgery or medication) ?
My mother is suffering from Piles. She has both the hemoroids outside all the time(internal and external).Also she bleeds and it pains alot at the time of stool passage.
I think this is Grade 4 Piles.
The doctor that we consulted only suggested a Laser Surgery.
Can you please let me know if this cant be treated using medication.
Also the doctor said that it will take 3 laser sessions. Is it so or this can be done in 1 sitting also ?
Please let me know if surgery is the only option or if we have any other alternative.

Grade 4 hemorrhoid requires surgical treatment. Regarding sessions of surgery requires clinical examination but can be done single siting.

Surgery is the only option for grade 4 piles.
