I have grade 1 hemorrhoids and I'm trying to decide between laser and stapler surgery. What are the pros and cons of each option? I'm a bit worried about recovery time and which one might be less painful

I've got this boil near my anus that's causing me a lot of trouble. It really hurts when I start to defecate and then it burns until I'm done. Sitting for long periods is also really uncomfortable. What could this be, and what should I do?
