Internal Hemorrhoids Classification and Treatment
- Internal hemorrhoids categorized into four grades:
- Grade I: Mild symptoms, no significant prolapse.
- Grade II: Prolapse occurs during straining but reduces spontaneously.
- Grade III: Prolapse requires manual reduction.
- Grade IV: Prolapsed and cannot be reduced, often associated with pain and recurrence.
Medical Treatments

Grade I Treatment:

- Recommended treatments include:
- Elastic band ligation
- Sclerotherapy
- Photocoagulation
- Follow-up is required to assess symptom improvement.
-
Grade III Treatment:
- Surgical intervention may be necessary if conservative measures fail.
- Hemorrhoidopexy or artery ligation guided by ultrasound can be considered.
- Follow-up will determine if symptoms improve; if not, hemorrhoidectomy is the next step.
