Dublin City Clinic Haemorrhoid Treatment

How does it work?

The treatment itself is very simple and has been clinically researched for over 150 years, with advances in medical technology now making it a mainstream practice.

Our doctors will identify and gently rest a probe on the base of the haemorrhoid(s) present. There is no cutting, stitching or heat applied, meaning no anaesthetic, which are some of the main reasons our treatment is considered low risk.

The device generates a small current of up to 16mAmp, which feels only slightly uncomfortable, though not painful, which stimulates a chemical reaction in the haemorrhoid, creating an excess of alkali which accumulates to seal off the feeding varicose blood vessel.

This results in the haemorrhoid being starved of its blood supply and it shrinks accordingly. Sometimes it may take more than one treatment to complete the process where the blood vessels are fully sealed and the haemorrhoid completely disappears.

The effect of the treatment continues to work over the following 4 weeks, at which point our aftercare team will be in touch to discuss symptom changes and see if any further treatments are required.

External haemorrhoids

External haemorrhoids, as the name suggests are located outside of the anus, or on the anus itself. They are often pink or skin-coloured, soft and not painful, much like skin tags. Sometimes, they can become swollen, itchy or irritated, and very painful if thrombosed, where a clot gets trapped inside.
 
A lot of people are quite self-conscious if them as they are unsightly and affect hygiene. Exroid electrotherapy is not effective in treating true external haemorrhoids, but we can treat them with cryotherapy if they are a suitable shape and size.
 
External haemorrhoids are often confused with large internal haemorrhoids that protrude or prolapse through the anus, which can be treated effectively with eXroid electrotherapy. We will be able to make this diagnosis when we assess patients, and advise them on the best treatment plan.

I cannot express enough gratitude to the entire team at Dublin City Clinic. I was struggling with stage 4 hemorrhoids, which required two sessions of the eXroid treatment.The results were incredible. Even after the very first treatment, I felt extremely comfortable, and the next day I was already able to go for a long walk. After the second session, the hemorrhoids are completely gone. There is absolutely no trace of them left. I truly admire the professionalism of the doctors and the staff. Thank you so much for giving me my health and comfort back. I highly recommend the eXroid treatment at this clinic to anyone dealing with this issue . You will be in the best hands!

I can’t recommend Dublin City Clinic enough. Having previously had banding treatment elsewhere that wasn’t particularly successful, I was quite apprehensive about having another procedure. What stood out most to me was their warmth and empathy. It’s not the easiest thing to seek treatment for and I felt quite vulnerable going in but Shauna and Fergal were so kind, reassuring and professional from the moment I arrived.. They immediately put me at ease, took the time to explain everything clearly and made what could have been a very uncomfortable experience feel completely manageable. The procedure itself was much more straightforward than I expected and I noticed an improvement almost immediately afterwards. It has genuinely been a game changer for me. If you’re feeling nervous or on the fence about treatment, I would really encourage you to book a consultation. You’ll be in excellent hands.

Approximately two months ago, I underwent a treatment procedure at the Dublin Clinic for a longstanding, persistent and very troublesome Haemorrhoid and to date I am happy to confirm a very successful outcome, with almost a complete resolution of a very intrusive personal problem. I would have no hesitation in recommending the Dublin Clinic and all of their staff to anyone. Mary-Rose Fenton

Before i arrived i had stage 4 and i was in discomfort for almost 8 months and then serious discomfort for about 2 weeks and i couldnt bare it. I looked up the internet and found exroid therapy. I was told by my own local doctor that i will have hemriods for life and i had to learn how to live with them. At Dublin city clinic they said their therapy works on most patients and it gave me reassurance that i wont be in this serious discomfort for much longer. All staff are trained and very professional. I had a very good experience, the nurse who performed the exroid therapy treatment on me was clear and thorough before anything was done. We sat down and she talked through everything for at least 40 minutes. The environment was calm and pleasant. I had a small amount of discomfort for a few days but then it cleared within a week, since then i have had no symptoms or discomfort.
