Booked in for Banding on mid July

Posted , 6 users are following.

Hello all,

Well I finally worked up the courage to book on my banding. I am getting one large hemorrhoid banded and injected in July. I am scared but also hoping for the best. I have a few hemorrhoids but read it best to do one at a time.

I would love any after care tips :-)

    I had hemroidectomy 11 days ago things are going fairly well. My doctor told me that he wouldn't remove all of mine at once because it could cause anal stenosis. Is this what you read on why it's best 2 do one at a time? I couldn't wrap my head around like why would you possibly have me go through this again instead of just removing them all now... So curious as to the reasons you found why it's best to not do them all at once

      I had banding several years ago, I did find it pretty painful.  She did 3 bands. I'd just say take pain relief and rest after. A few days later the pain was better.
