No, but they can be removed by banding or surgery. This provides relief though they don't really go away completely.
They are curable by a surgical procedure
Hello there,

Yes, for certain, hemorrhoids are curable. It is very important to identify and treat the CAUSE of them for each individual. Try seeing a naturopathic doctor perhaps: www.naturemed.org
Hemorrhoids are cushions of tissue in the anus filled with blood vessels. They are normal parts of our body that can become abnormal with swelling, pain, engorgement and bleeding. Hemorrhoids can be treated via several means such as surgery, rubber band ligation, infrared coagulation, injection sclerotherapy and conservative means with dietary adjustment and bowel management.
