My father has stage 2 internal hemorrhoids and keeps having heavy bleeding episodes. He takes Daflon when it happens, which stops the bleeding for about two months, but then it starts again. Is this cycle going to keep repeating, or is there a permanent fix? Would surgery help, or are there better medicines to stop the bleeding for good?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.

Can rectal prolapse get better without surgery or do I always need an operation What treatments or home remedies actually work to fix it Would doing Kegel exercises help pull it back up or is that not effective for this issue
In adults, rectal prolapse typically requires surgical intervention, as it often doesn't resolve on its own or with conservative treatments. While some lifestyle changes and exercises like Kegels can help manage symptoms and strengthen pelvic floor muscles, they are not a definitive cure for a prolapse.
