Abstract
Hemorrhoidal disease is a common problem that affects a large number of patients. Usually multiple remedies are used by those patients without medical advise and for several reasons consultation with a specialist is often delayed. The large prevalence of popular misconception adds to this and occasionally makes adequate treatment difficult. Herein we present a brief and useful review of current relevant concepts in the management of patients with hemorrhoidal disease.
