Hemorrhoids are one of the most common things we treat — and one of the most uncomfortable to live with. If you've been putting up with itching, bleeding, or pain, you're not alone, and you don't have to keep waiting it out. At Mirage Health, Dr. Rajiv Sharma offers hemorrhoid banding, a quick and gentle in-office treatment that relieves symptoms without surgery, anesthesia, or significant downtime. Conveniently located in Mesa, our office welcomes patients from across the East Valley, including nearby Gilbert, Chandler, and Tempe.
Hemorrhoid banding, also called rubber band ligation, is a simple procedure for treating internal hemorrhoids. During your visit, Dr. Sharma places a small rubber band at the base of the hemorrhoid. The band gently cuts off the blood supply, so the hemorrhoid shrinks and falls away on its own over the following days — usually without you even noticing.
The whole process takes just a few minutes and is done right here in our office. Most patients feel only mild pressure or a sense of fullness, and there's no need for anesthesia. You can return to your normal day soon after, with little to no recovery time.
Because banding treats one hemorrhoid at a time, some patients benefit from a short series of quick visits spaced a few weeks apart. It's a safe, well-established approach that offers lasting relief and helps you avoid more invasive surgery.
Patients from Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, and Tempe choose Mirage Health for convenient, non-surgical hemorrhoid care close to home. If hemorrhoids are interfering with your comfort or daily life, banding may be the straightforward solution you've been looking for. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Sharma to find out whether hemorrhoid banding is right for you — and take the first step toward feeling like yourself again.
