Grade 0-1: Very early hemorrhoids can often be effectively dealt with by dietary and lifestyle changes. The lifestyle changes should also be part of treatment plan for the more advanced hemorrhoids.
Grade 1-2-3: Infra-Red Coagulation (IRC) has become the world's leading office treatment for hemorrhoids. This non-surgical treatment is fast, well tolerated, and remarkably complication-free. A small probe is placed in the base of the hemorrhoid and a few short bursts of infrared light are applied. The infrared light quickly coagulates the vessels that provide the hemorrhoid with blood, causing the hemorrhoids to shrink and recede. Shrinkage of the hemorrhoidal tissues may take a few weeks.
Grade 3: Rubber band ligation is widely used for the treatment of more advanced (more prolapsed) internal hemorrhoids where the prolapsed hemorrhoidal tissue is pulled into a double-sleeved cylinder to allow the placement of two rubber bands around the tissue. Over time, the ligated tissue dies-off. Rubber band ligation usually is performed in the clinic. Often, however, there is the need for more than one procedure to resolve the condition. Rubber band ligation downgrades the hemorrhoids to grade 1 or 2, some patients may need to do Infra-Red Coagulation (IRC) treatments after Rubber band ligation.
Grade 4: A hemorrhoidectomy surgically removes the tissue that causes bleeding or protrusion. It is done in a doctor's office under anesthesia and may require a period of inactivity.
