Treatment methods for mixed hemorrhoids mainly include non-surgical and surgical approaches. Non-surgical treatments involve medication, such as drugs that improve venous wall elasticity, Ano-medicated ointment, and Tanin suppositories, as well as physical therapies like acupuncture, warm saline sitz baths, and anal sphincter exercises. These methods can help relieve symptoms but should be performed under medical guidance. When non-surgical treatments are ineffective or symptoms are severe, surgical intervention may be considered, such as external stripping combined with internal ligation, or stapled hemorrhoidopexy (procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids, PPH). Surgical treatment generally provides a more direct solution to mixed hemorrhoids, but the decision on whether surgery is necessary and which specific procedure to use must be made by a physician based on individual patient circumstances.
