Hemorrhoids can be a painful and frustrating condition, affecting daily comfort and quality of life. While conservative treatments like dietary changes and topical medications may help, some patients continue to struggle with persistent symptoms. At RIA Endovascular, we offer hemorrhoid embolization, a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure that provides long-term relief without surgery.
Understanding Hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in the lower rectum or anus, often caused by increased pressure due to:
- Straining during bowel movements
- Chronic constipation or diarrhea
- Pregnancy
- Sitting for extended periods
How Does It Work?
Hemorrhoid embolization is performed by our expert interventional radiologists. Using image guidance, a small catheter is inserted into the blood vessels supplying the hemorrhoids. Tiny particles are then delivered to block excess blood flow, causing the hemorrhoids to shrink and symptoms to improve.
Why Choose Embolization?
-Minimally invasive – No incisions, no stitches
-Quick recovery – Most patients resume normal activities within a day
-Reduced pain – Compared to traditional surgical options
-Long-lasting relief – Effectively treats chronic symptoms
