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.
