During your initial visit, we perform an anoscope exam. The anoscopy involves inserting a small tube to check the lining of the anus and rectum. We also perform a digital rectal exam (finger exam) if needed. Once these checks have been completed, our doctors will provide you with a diagnosis, a detailed treatment plan, including the estimated cost. If desired, we can complete the first treatment within your very initial visit.

At N.A. Hemorrhoids Centre, we use three main methods for hemorrhoid treatment: Ba Zhi San ointment application, minor surgery, and non-surgical, naturopathic hemorrhoid treatment. These methods may be combined with other procedures depending on your situation. The surgery is an in-office minor surgery performed by our doctors in the clinic and requires little to no downtime. The entire procedure takes between 10-40 minutes and requires only a local anesthetic.

The proprietary Ba Zhi San ointment aids in the shrinking and removal of hemorrhoids. The balm comes in five different formulas and is proven to stop bleeding and control hemorrhoid-related pain as well as fistulas and fissures. It also improves blood flow and circulation to help prevent future hemorrhoids and other anorectal conditions. The Ba Zhi San ointment applications require daily dressing changes for the duration of your treatment plan.

Your may involve pre-treatment, primary treatment, and post-treatment phases. The cycle typically takes two to three weeks but may vary between individuals. Treatment phases may involve repeated applications of the Ba Zhi San ointment or additional naturopathic and non-surgical procedures. During each follow-up appointment, our doctors will check the progress and treatment will continue until the hemorrhoid has been permanently removed.

We recheck and reassess patients post treatment to ensure you will continue to live life pain-free. While our treatment is designed to continue until the hemorrhoid is completely cleared, our rechecks provide peace of mind and long-term satisfaction for patients.
