Haemorrhoid injection
A haemorrhoid injection, also called sclerotherapy) is a treatment used to reduce the discomfort of piles. An injection of chemicals is administered directly into the blood vessels in your back passage. This kills the nerve endings and therefore removed pain. The 'pile' will turn into scra tissue and shrivel up in around 4 or 6 weeks. A change in diet incorporating more fibre should be adopted to avoid a recurrence.
