Hemorrhoids

Literally a Pain in the Butt

Hemorrhoids are swollen veins in the lowest part of your rectum and anus. Sometimes the walls of these blood vessels stretch so thin that the veins bulge and get irritated, especially when you have a bowel movement. Swollen hemorrhoids are also called piles.

Some people may be more likely to get hemorrhoids if other family members, like their parents, had them. A buildup of pressure in your lower rectum can affect blood flow and make the veins there swell. Read more >>

Our Hemorrhoid Banding Solution: The CRH O’Regan System

The CRH O’Regan System treats hemorrhoids completely – without surgery or recovery time. The hemorrhoid treatment process is simple. The procedure is easy, fast and painless. You’ll be amazed at how simple it is … and how great you feel.

How does the CRH O’Regan system work?

The CRH O’Regan hemorrhoid treatment technology works by cutting off the blood supply to the hemorrhoid, causing it to shrink after the band falls off in a few days. You may not even notice when this happens.

Does this procedure hurt?

The short answer is, “no.” Most patients feel no pain from hemorrhoid banding, even during recovery. And those who do typically report their pain as minor, just a slight fullness in the rectum, or a dull ache. According to a study of more than 6,500 patients and 20,000 banded hemorrhoids published in 2010, only 0.5% of CRH patients – that’s just one in 200 – reported significant post-hemorrhoid banding pain or bleeding, compared with 4-29% of patients who received other types of banding procedures.
