Hemorrhoids: Causes, Treatments and Prevention - Brian Barden, MD

According to Brian Barden, MD, a board-certified surgeon with Carrollton Surgical Group, hemorrhoid disease is caused primarily by pregnancy and excessive straining in the bathroom. Most hemorrhoid patients experience swelling and pain, turning first to over-the-counter remedies. When those no longer suffice, Dr. Barden performs hemorrhoid banding, a revolutionary outpatient procedure requiring no anesthesia and no downtime. Some hemorrhoids may require an outpatient surgery that requires a longer recovery. No matter which surgery is performed, the relief can be life-changing for hemorrhoid patients.
