A doctor can usually diagnose external piles after carrying out a physical examination and diagnosing internal hemorrhoids might include examination of your anal canal and rectum.
Rectal examination: Your doctor inserts a gloved, lubricated finger into your rectum. This test looks for inflamed veins which denote the presence of piles.
Internal hemorrhoids are often too soft to be felt during a rectal examination, your doctor might examine the lower portion of your colon and rectum with an anoscope, proctoscope or sigmoidoscope.
The surgical procedure to treat piles is known as hemorrhoidectomy. In hemorrhoidectomy, the excess tissue that is causing the pain and bleeding is surgically removed through a conventional open surgery, laser surgery or stapling. This can be done in various ways and may involve local or regional anaesthesia. Laser surgery and stapling are the most effective ways for treating piles involving minimal pain, quick recovery, no blood loss and just one or same day discharge.
