Typical hospital procedures include:

Rubber band ligation: putting a band around your piles will cause them to fall off.

Sclerotherapy involves injecting a liquid into your pimples to cause them to contract.

With electrotherapy, your piles will get smaller by being exposed to a mild electric current.

Using infrared light, your piles’ blood supply is cut off, causing them to coagulate and shrink.

Your piles are glued back inside of your antrum in a stapled hemorrhoidopexy.

The blood supply to your piles is cut off with stitches during a haemorrhoidal artery ligation procedure, causing them to decrease.
