Chronic vs. Occasional Hemorrhoids: How Laser Treatment Offers a Long-Term Fix

Hemorrhoids are one of those health issues few talk about openly—but many silently endure. If you’ve ever experienced the discomfort, itching, or bleeding caused by hemorrhoids, you know how much they can interfere with daily life. For some, these symptoms occur occasionally and go away on their own. But for others, hemorrhoids can become a recurring, chronic issue that affects both physical comfort and emotional well-being.

At DRHC Dubai, we want you to know that lasting relief is possible—and it doesn’t always require traditional surgery. With laser hemorrhoid treatment, we offer a safe, effective, and minimally invasive option to help you break free from the cycle of flare-ups.

Occasional vs. Chronic Hemorrhoids: What’s the Difference?

Occasional hemorrhoids often result from short-term factors such as:

Straining during bowel movements
Sitting for long periods (especially on the toilet)
Pregnancy or childbirth
Low-fiber diet or constipation

These hemorrhoids may improve on their own with lifestyle changes and over-the-counter remedies.

Chronic hemorrhoids, on the other hand, are persistent or recurrent. They might:

Appear more than a few times a year
Cause ongoing bleeding, discomfort, or prolapse
Resist home treatments
Affects quality of life, causing anxiety about everyday activities

If you’re regularly dealing with symptoms, it may be time to consider a more permanent solution.

How Laser Treatment Works for Hemorrhoids

Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty is an advanced procedure that uses a focused laser beam to gently shrink hemorrhoidal tissue from the inside. There’s no cutting, no stitches, and minimal disruption to surrounding tissue.

Here’s how it helps both occasional and chronic hemorrhoids:

Quick and precise: The laser targets the problem veins without damaging healthy tissue.
Minimal pain: Patients typically report far less discomfort than with traditional surgery.
Fast recovery: Most people return to normal activities in a few days.
Long-term results: Particularly effective for Grade II and III hemorrhoids, this treatment reduces the risk of recurrence when combined with lifestyle adjustments.

Common Questions About Laser Hemorrhoid Treatment

Is laser treatment painful?
Most patients experience only mild discomfort, usually well-managed with simple pain relief. Since the laser avoids cutting, post-procedure pain is significantly reduced.

What’s the recovery time?
Recovery is quick. Many people are up and moving the same day and fully back to routine activities within 3 to 5 days.

Is it safe?
Yes. Laser hemorrhoidoplasty is considered very safe when performed by an experienced specialist. At DRHC Dubai, we follow strict safety protocols and use the latest technology.

Will hemorrhoids come back after laser treatment?
Laser treatment significantly reduces the likelihood of recurrence. However, maintaining a healthy diet, avoiding straining, and staying active are essential to long-term success.

Is laser treatment suitable for all hemorrhoids?
Laser treatment is most effective for second and third-degree internal hemorrhoids, especially those that prolapse or bleed. In more advanced or complex cases, your specialist may discuss other options.

If you:

Frequently deal with hemorrhoid flare-ups
