Hemorrhoid Treatment
haemorrhoid treatment — in most cases without surgery
Haemorrhoids are enlarged haemorrhoidal cushions that can be treated effectively — in most cases without surgery. In Gdańsk, we select the treatment method according to the stage of the condition: from conservative management, through Barron rubber band ligation, to laser treatment.
Treatment is provided by an experienced proctology team. We begin with a consultation and — if indicated — anoscopy, which helps confirm the source of symptoms.
The method and price are determined by the doctor after consultation. Appointments are usually available within a few days.

Methods of haemorrhoid treatment
1. Conservative treatment
In the early stage, ointments, suppositories, stool regulation and dietary changes are used. This is the first step, which relieves symptoms and slows disease progression in many patients.
2. Barron rubber band ligation
A latex band is placed around the haemorrhoidal cushion, cutting off its blood supply. This is a short outpatient procedure, usually without general anaesthesia — one of the most effective minimally invasive methods for grade I–III haemorrhoidal disease.
3. Laser treatment and other procedural methods
In selected cases, we use laser treatment or other procedural methods selected individually. The doctor makes the decision after assessing the stage of the condition during consultation.
Diagnostics before treatment
Treatment is preceded by a proctology consultation and, if indicated, anoscopy. This allows the doctor to assess the source of bleeding and distinguish haemorrhoids from other conditions, such as an anal fissure or a thrombosed external haemorrhoid.
“Most patients are afraid that haemorrhoids mean surgery. Meanwhile, in grade I–III disease, minimally invasive methods such as Barron ligation are usually sufficient. However, confirming the source of bleeding first is crucial.”
— Sara Godyńska, MD, proctologist

Frequently asked questions
Do haemorrhoids hurt?
Internal haemorrhoids usually do not cause pain — their main symptom is rectal bleeding. Pain is more common with external haemorrhoids, thrombosis or an accompanying anal fissure.
Can haemorrhoids be treated without surgery?
Yes, most cases can be treated without classic surgery. Ligation, laser treatment and conservative methods are effective in grade I, II and selected grade III haemorrhoidal disease.
How long does haemorrhoid treatment take?
It depends on the stage of the condition. Conservative treatment usually lasts several weeks, while procedures such as ligation are performed during one visit. Complete symptom relief may take from several days to several weeks.
Is haemorrhoid ligation painful?
Barron rubber band ligation is an outpatient procedure without general anaesthesia. Most patients feel only pressure or discomfort. Severe pain after the procedure is rare and requires contacting the doctor.
Can haemorrhoids come back after treatment?
Haemorrhoidal disease tends to recur, especially with constipation, a low-fibre diet and a sedentary lifestyle. Following recommendations and changing habits significantly reduces the risk of recurrence.
Which doctor should I see for haemorrhoids?
With symptoms of haemorrhoids, you should see a proctologist or a surgeon specialising in proctology. Several specialists see patients at our clinic, and appointments can be booked online.
Are haemorrhoids dangerous?
The condition itself is rarely life-threatening, but if left untreated it may lead to anaemia in cases of chronic bleeding. Rectal bleeding may also be a symptom of other, more serious conditions, so it always requires diagnostics.
