Hemorrhoids are one of the most common and nagging rectal disorders. Although troublesome, hemorrhoids are rarely serious, and often clear up by themselves or with minimal treatment. Treatment typically is simple and effective and may include pain-free ligation or “banding” which can be done in an office setting. More serious cases may require surgery. People with hemorrhoids who work closely with their physician are usually assured a good outcome and relief from this common disorder.
