Band Ligation

Band ligation is a medical procedure used to treat issues like hemorrhoids or varicose veins. In this process, a small rubber band is placed around the base of the abnormal tissue, cutting off its blood supply. Over time, the tissue shrinks and eventually falls off, allowing the body to heal naturally. It’s typically a quick, outpatient procedure that can help alleviate discomfort and improve symptoms without the need for more invasive surgery. Patients usually recover quickly, and it’s considered a safe option for managing certain vascular conditions.
