Hemorrhoid banding, also known as rubber band ligation, is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat internal hemorrhoids. During the procedure, a small rubber band is placed around the base of the hemorrhoid to cut off its blood supply. This causes the hemorrhoid to shrink and eventually fall off, typically within a few days. The procedure is quick, often performed in a doctor’s office, and most patients experience minimal discomfort and a quick recovery.
