AMBULATORY PH MONITORING

HEMORRHOID TREATMENT

IRC

Hemorrhoids can be a major issue which effects patients lives.  Typically, conservative therapy such as fiber  supplements can be helpful. When this does not work, however, IRC is a good "next step" before invasive treatments such as surgery and banding.
