How successful is haemorrhoid surgery?

Haemorrhoids are swollen veins in the anal canal. The treatment depends on the stage in which the disease is. If it is still in its early stages you can simply treat it with a high fibre diet and plenty of oral fluids. If it moves into later stages, surgery can be made via laser procedures, open surgery or even a stapler procedure. These surgeries, in general, are very successful. However, haemorrhoids have a tendency of reappearing. It is much better to focus on fixing haemorrhoids through natural methods. If you still wish to go for surgery then you should consult with specialists such as Dr Mehli Nazir to give yourself the best   haemorrhoids treatment   possible. DR.
