He emphasizes the importance of seeing medical treatment not as a failure but as a necessary support. Key signs for seeking a GI specialist or colorectal surgeon are discussed, including persistent bleeding, recurrent flare-ups, and prolapsed hemorrhoids. The episode explains three common medical treatments: rubber band ligation, sclerotherapy, and hemorrhoidectomy, and highlights the roles of gastroenterologists, colorectal surgeons, and pelvic floor physical therapists. The episode concludes with a teaser for the next discussion on traditional healing systems for hemorrhoids.
