The_Munchmaster Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I often see this amusing advert, from Jehad International Medical Clinic, in one of Dubai's newspapers.

Mekong Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 It sure is Band It The most commonly used hemorrhoid procedure in the United States is rubber band ligation, in which a small elastic band is placed around the base of a hemorrhoid. The band causes the hemorrhoid to shrink and the surrounding tissue to scar as it heals, holding the hemorrhoid in place. It takes two to four procedures, done six to eight weeks apart, to completely eliminate the hemorrhoid. Complications, which are rare, include mild pain or tightness (usually relieved with a sitz bath), bleeding, and infection. Other office procedures include laser or infrared coagulation, sclerotherapy, and cryosurgery. They all work on the same principle as rubber band ligation but are not quite as effective in preventing recurrence. Side effects and recurrence vary with the procedure, so consult your physician about whatâ??s best for your situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
