i have suffered from piles for 2 years now. Recently i had them banded and the doctor told me i would have some bleeding and feel pain after. 3 days on and none of those symptoms have appeared. Wondering if the banding has worked?

Hi I had the banding done 5mths back, but it has come back worse than ever, I am thinkinking about having a HALO ( haemorrhodal Artery Ligation Operation) done private. hope your's stays o.k. Irene

I had haemorrhoids, after childbirth, and tried everything the doctor suggested to rid myself of this painful condition, but notthing worked and I was in constant pain.

Finally, an old doctor suggested ice cubes, wrapped in a piece of cotton material... voila! Cured!

I went on to have two more children and never had any more problems!

I had three of mine banded,never again! All three were done at the same time and the Dr caught one of them with the band making it burst....wow if I knew that was a possibility I wouldnt have had it done.I have had injections 4 times but nothing has helped.Ive suffered for 10 years. :cry:

In that ten years ive never been able to go on a bus,walk more than 50 yards etc,and now for the past 8 weeks i havent been able to get out of the house,I can barely walk,yet i still have to have private treatment as my Dr will not refer me on the NHS. :twisted:

Ive recently heard about the Halo proceedure,does anyone have much info on this? Or no someone whos had it done?

Thanks.

Hi,

How did u treat the piles with icu cubes and cotton material?

Thanks.

How many times in a day you put ice on your haemorrhoids ? Is that hurt?
