Laser Hemorrhoid Treatment vs. Traditional Surgery: Which Is Better?

Hemorrhoids are a common health issue that can cause significant discomfort, pain, and bleeding. With modern medical advancements, laser hemorrhoid treatment has become a popular alternative to traditional surgical methods. But which option is more suitable for you?

In this article, we compare both approaches and introduce how Almurshidi Medical Tourism can help you receive world-class treatment with comfort and confidence.

Laser Hemorrhoid Treatment

Laser treatment uses focused light energy to shrink or remove hemorrhoids with minimal tissue damage.

Advantages of Laser Treatment

• Minimally invasive with no large incisions.

• Short procedure time, usually 20–30 minutes.

• Less pain during and after the procedure.

• Quick recovery, allowing patients to resume daily activities within a few days.

• Reduced risk of bleeding or infection.

Possible Disadvantages

• May not be suitable for very advanced hemorrhoid cases.

• Can be more expensive than traditional surgery in some countries.

Traditional Hemorrhoid Surgery

Traditional hemorrhoidectomy is still widely used, especially for severe or advanced cases.

Advantages

• Highly effective for advanced grades of hemorrhoids.

• Provides long-lasting results.

Disadvantages

• Longer recovery time.

• More postoperative pain.

• May require taking time off work for a period.

Which Treatment Is Better?

The ideal option depends on:

• The grade of hemorrhoids (1st to 4th degree)

• The patient’s age and overall health

• Whether the patient prefers a quicker and less painful solution

In general, laser treatment is excellent for mild to moderate cases, while traditional surgery is more suitable for severe cases.
