There is not anything you will need to do to prepare for your procedure. Your gastroenterologist will likely review the medications and/or vitamins and supplements you take, so bringing a list of these items with you can be helpful. After the haemorrhoid banding procedure, you may want to have someone available to help with daily tasks to reduce the risk of strain on your body. It is also important to closely follow any pre- or post-op orders provided by Dr. Peerbaccus.
As with many procedures, a small amount of risk is associated with haemorrhoid banding, including infection, bleeding, and recurring haemorrhoids. Dr. Peerbaccus takes all the necessary measures to help avoid as many risks as possible. We strive to put you on track for success throughout your recovery process.
You can go to work following your haemorrhoid banding procedure. We advise avoiding intense labour, but if you have an office job, you can typically return to work after haemorrhoid banding.
Your GI specialist’s objective is to ensure you are as relaxed as possible, no matter the procedure. Our team may administer local anesthesia to help reduce pain during the process. However, it is common to experience minimal discomfort during and after haemorrhoid banding.
The easiest way to reduce the risk of haemorrhoids is by having an active lifestyle, as well as eating a high fibre diet and drinking at least 6-8 glasses of fluids daily. Fruits or high fibre cereal help to soften and bulk up the stools so they can pass out of the body more easily.
