Hemorrhoid disease is the most common reason patients seek evaluation by a colon and rectal surgeon. The majority of hemorrhoids can be managed nonoperatively with medical management or as day care procedures. Even though Milligan Morgan Hemorrhoidectomy(MMH) & Minimal Invasive Procedure for Hemorrhoid (MIPH) is the gold standard for hemorrhoids, but newer techniques like INFRA-RED Coagulation(IRC) for 1st, 2nd & 3rd degree hemorrhoids are showing promising results because of minimal complications, ease of procedure and a day care procedure most of the time. Besides that many patients are not ready for a definite surgical procedure and they can be benefitted by IRC.
