Hemorrhoid Treatment in Israel

Hemorrhoids are abnormally swollen veins in the anal canal; they are one of the most common causes of bleeding during defecation. While their symptoms can be bothersome (i.e. including pain when walking and during bowel movements) and have a negative effect on your quality of life, hemorrhoids themselves are rarely dangerous. The main risk is mistaking the symptoms of rectal cancer for the condition. This is why you are strongly advised to seek treatment for hemorrhoids if you experience any of the following symptoms:

• Rectal bleeding
• Persistent anal itching
• Painful bowel movements
• Bumps around the anus

Please also note that hemorrhoid-like symptoms can also point to a more serious condition. This is why time is of the essence. You should seek medical consultation ASAP. Let us know about the symptoms you’re experiencing. Based on this info our Israeli experts will draft a diagnostics/treatment program for you. The long distance specialist consultation is FREE OF CHARGE.
