Infrared Coagulation (IRC) is a minimally invasive procedure commonly used to treat conditions like hemorrhoids. It involves using infrared light to apply heat to the affected tissue, causing it to coagulate (clot) and shrink. This treatment is particularly effective for internal hemorrhoids and is known for being relatively painless, requiring no incisions, and offering a quick recovery time. Infrared Coagulation is a preferred method for patients with mild to moderate hemorrhoids, as it helps reduce symptoms such as bleeding, swelling, and discomfort with minimal downtime. It’s typically performed in a doctor’s office or clinic setting.
