Post Hemorrhoidectomy Anorectal Pain
Completed
Conditions studied: Hemorrhoid Pain
In brief
This is a quality assurance trial to evaluate the effectiveness of guided breathing exercises on reducing the symptoms of hemorrhoidal disease in colorectal surgery patients. All patients who undergo hemorrhoid surgery are educated on breathing exercises that can be used to reduce pain and increase relaxation. These patients will be surveyed at their post-operative visit regarding pain and other symptoms and at their one month post operative visit on the any hospitalizations and emergency room visits since their surgery.
