inside the rectum, usually painless but may bleed.
02
around the anus, often painful, itchy, and may form clots.

Stapler Surgery (Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy) is a modern, minimally invasive procedure that repositions prolapsed hemorrhoids back into their normal place inside the rectum. Instead of cutting out hemorrhoids (as in conventional surgery), it uses a circular stapling device to remove a ring of tissue and staple the hemorrhoids back in place. This reduces blood flow to the hemorrhoids, causing them to shrink naturally while preserving the anal cushion for normal bowel function.
