<p>There are many preventative measures you can take to prevent hemorrhoids from developing. The most important part of hemorrhoid prevention is keeping your stool soft so it can pass easily.</p>
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
- <li><b>Eat high-fiber foods.</b> This includes whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. This can help soften stool and increase its bulk, which can help avoid straining that can induce hemorrhoids. You can also consider fiber supplements to reach the recommended amount of fiber in your diet (20 to 30 grams a day).</li>
|
|
|
- <li><b>Drink plenty of fluids.</b> Drinking six to eight glasses of water and other liquids every day helps stool remain soft.</li>
|
|
|
- <li><b>Exercise.</b> Preventing constipation and reducing pressure on veins is paramount in preventing hemorrhoids, and can be accomplished by spending less time on your bottom or standing in one place.</li>

<p>Rubber band ligation is a very common procedure to treat hemorrhoids. During the procedure, your doctor will use an applicator like the Snyder HemBand to place a gentle, medical-grade rubber band around the base of your hemorrhoid.</p>
|
|
|
- <p>The band will cut off blood supply or circulation to your hemorrhoid. This will cause your hemorrhoid to shrink and eventually fall off (along with the rubber band) with a bowel movement in 1-3 days following your procedure, usually without you noticing it. Best of all, the procedure takes less than a minute!</p>

- <p>Snyder Hemband is the system which allows a physician to place a gentle medical rubber band safely around the base of hemorrhoids. The soft rubber band generates the compression around the hemorrhoids reducing the blood supply which causes it to shrink and eventually fall off. It is a painless procedure with little discomfort occasionally. The banding is done above the dentate line, a section of rectum with a very low number of pain-sensitive nerves making the procedure painless. The rubber band is placed around the hemorrhoid in less than a minute.</p>
