Isn’t hemorrhoid surgery a better option for hemorrhoid treatment than IRC?
Most hemorrhoid patients do not need surgery. An important goal of Dr. Mathis is to help hemorrhoid patients avoid surgery. Hemorrhoid surgery is an extremely painful treatment that can lead to rare, but life threatening, complications and incontinence. Also hemorrhoid surgery is not necessarily the cure-all that many people believe it to be as hemorrhoid tissue can regrow after surgery. Dr. Mathis has had numerous patients who have had one, and up to four, hemorrhoid surgeries in the past and, yet once again, are suffering with hemorrhoid disease.
