Asa Best is to have him investigated with a upper GI endoscopy and a colonoscopy first as a hemaoglobin of 7.4 could be something sinister

It is not a major surgery but he should be assessed properly before hemorrhoid surgery to rule out other serious problems and then surgery can be done so he should attend surgery clinic

Thanks for asking medical advice, I think you make a virtual appointment and we will look all aspect of significantly low Hb 7.4 as it has been very alarming or red flag sign. whether it is iron or non iron deficiency anaemia. Unlikely haemorrhoids be developed by long day sitting in office. if haemorrhoids have been diagnosed, its treatment varies according to the degree of haemorrhoids first, second or third degree. It is not necessary to have operation but it will be well assessed on consultant.

I think lower haemoglobin is due to piles bleeding and option is Pph haemorrhoidectomy , HAL and open operation so Pph is painless procedure, https://youtu.be/wwZkocTfRKg you can visit to view video www.yourube.com/amjaddr

Ur pt needs complete evaluation from hepatic and fitness for GA. And colonoscopy should be done to rule out any secondary cause of haemorrhoid. Operation can be done with least risk after proper optimization.

yes he still can get rid of them, there are many procedures these days. and will have a better life.

General Surgeon in Lahore - Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mohammad Akmal Shafiq

He needs a detailed physical examination and perhaps a few more tests.
First of all, all conditions around the anus are mistakenly called haemorrhoids, which they are not. So clinical examination is the first thing to be dobe , mustly by a qualified surgeon.
Secondly considering his low Hb, we need to find the cause for that, coz sometimes cancer of intestine can present with low Hb and hemorrhoids.
In summary , i cant give you an exact answer before examining the patient.
Uncomplicated haemorrhoids' surgery is no big issue in experienced hands and can be done safely after correction of Hb level.
