Haemorrhoid (Piles) Assessment & Treatment Service

We offer a confidential, professional private consultation service for the assessment and management of haemorrhoids (commonly known as piles).

Haemorrhoids are swollen blood vessels located in or around the rectum and anus. They are a common condition that can cause discomfort, itching, pain, swelling, and sometimes bleeding during bowel movements. Many cases can be effectively managed with appropriate advice and treatment without the need for a GP appointment.

What the Service Includes

During a private consultation, a qualified pharmacist will:

  • Discuss your symptoms and medical history in a confidential consultation room
  • Assess whether your symptoms are consistent with haemorrhoids
  • Provide evidence-based advice on symptom relief and prevention
  • Recommend appropriate pharmacy treatments where suitable
  • Supply treatment under private pharmacy protocol (if clinically appropriate)
  • Offer lifestyle and dietary guidance to help prevent recurrence
  • Identify warning signs requiring referral to a GP or urgent medical care

Treatments Available

Depending on clinical assessment, treatment options may include:

  • Topical creams or ointments to relieve pain, itching, and inflammation
  • Suppositories for internal haemorrhoids
  • Pain relief recommendations
  • Advice on bowel habits, fibre intake, hydration, and constipation management

All treatments are supplied privately and charges will be explained before treatment is provided.
