How DPC Can Help With Hemorrhoid Banding

Updated on: March 20, 2025

Hemorrhoid Banding and Direct Primary Care (DPC): Relief, Personalized

If hemorrhoids make sitting unbearable or bathroom trips traumatic, you’re not alone—50% of adults over 50 suffer from them. Yet many delay treatment due to embarrassment or fragmented care. Direct Primary Care (DPC) transforms this journey by offering discreet, compassionate support—so you can sit comfortably again.

 


 

Understanding Hemorrhoid Banding: A Minimally Invasive Fix

Rubber band ligation cuts off blood supply to internal hemorrhoids, causing them to shrink and fall off in 1–2 weeks. Performed in-office in 10 minutes, it’s 80% effective for grades I–III hemorrhoids.

Key facts for patients:

  • Uses: Treat internal hemorrhoids causing bleeding, prolapse, or discomfort.

  • Safety: Low risk of pain (10–15%) or bleeding (5%); avoid if on blood thinners.

  • Costs: Traditional clinics charge 500–1,500 USD; DPC reduces fees by 20–30%.

Risks of delayed care:

  • Thrombosed hemorrhoids requiring emergency excision.

  • Anemia from chronic bleeding.

  • Social withdrawal due to pain or embarrassment.

3. Compassionate Recovery and Prevention

  • 24/7 access: Message your provider about post-banding pain or bleeding.

  • Sitz bath kits: Recommend warm soaks 2–3x/day to soothe irritation.
