35 years ago I had Emergency Surgery for Hemorrhoids.
Was told by surgeon that they will never come back.
5 years ago, after Prostate Removal Surgery, I had Pinpoint 38 days Radiation treatment to make sure Margins were clear.
Now, 35 years later, my Hemorrhoids have returned.
I cannot remember who, but I remember a Dr telling me that Hemorrhoid Treatment was either more difficult or impossible after Post Prostate Removal Radiation Treatment.
Anybody on here know anything about this topic and/or any Dr in Houston area to discuss it with ????

Re: Radiation then Hemorrhoids - Any Experts?
I would say whoever told you that surgery for them after a prostatectomy is full of shit. I had a prostatectomy in 2009, then hemorrhoids from hell in 2012 and surgery by Dr. Silverman in St. Louis for them. I saw several other quacks before Silverman that left me a bloody sore mess but did not fix the problem as they returned worse each time. Silverman has one of the most efficient medical practices I have ever seen. Surgery was fast. Recovery sucks down there for a couple weeks as you know but he does good work. Do not allow anyone to do the rectal resection surgery where they shove a tool up your ass and shorten your rectum with a million staples in a circle. I forget what it is called but it causes a lot of people problems that need more surgery to correct. One doctor was going to do that on me and aborted it in the operating room. When I saw Silverman, he told me that I was lucky he bailed because it would have been the wrong surgery AND cause me a lot of problems down the road. d

Thanks for all the replies.
As BLDOINK suggests - its not the Prostatecotomy that makes hemorrhoid surgery difficult, but what the radiation does to the tissue that I seem to remember the doctor telling me....
