Anyone had Sclerotherapy for your internal hemorrhoids? How did you feel and how long until the effect in decreasing in size? I had 3 grade 1 injected 2 weeks ago. Still feel some fullness and not sure If that is from the injection reaction or not. Sclerotherapy for veins like varicose veins takes weeks to heal, i guess the same for hemorrhoids?
John,
I'm assuming that the sclerotherapy is the injection into the hem. i had that done over 40 years ago, and while I do remember that it helped, I don't remember the details. A few months ago, I looked into whether it was available where I live now, and could not find a doc that did them. Where are you located? I would be interested in having it done again. I live 100 miles north of New York City. Thanks.
Rich
Forgot to add that I'm willing to travel.
im in the Uk and really want to get this done but can not find a doctor that does it anywhere in this country its driving me nuts
Hey John, I had this done last year and unfortunately I felt no improvement at all-it doesn't feel worse however it didn't treat my problem. I barely felt any discomfort or anything and after a few days I was feeling normal however I still get the usual flare ups. I was really hoping it would have worked but I have felt better results from the banding procedure. I hope it works for you!
Jake, Where did you have it done?
Hey richp21, In Australia! Quite far from where you are located I see haha
Oh, too bad! No plans for a journey to Australia at this point.
