Michael Chopra, a 45-year-old long-haul truck...
Michael Chopra, a 45-year-old long-haul truck driver, had been silently suffering for years. His sedentary job and irregular diet led to progressively worsening hemorrhoids. For the last six months, he experienced constant pain, bleeding that alarmed him, and a persistent, uncomfortable prolapse that made sitting for his 10-hour drives agonizing. He avoided seeking help, embarrassed and worried it would affect his ability to work and provide for his family. Finally, after a particularly painful episode, his wife insisted he see a doctor. A colorectal surgeon diagnosed him with grade IV internal hemorrhoids and recommended a stapler hemorrhoidectomy (PPH), explaining it was less painful than traditional surgery and would have him back to work sooner. Michael was terrified of surgery but desperate for relief. The procedure itself was under spinal anesthesia and felt like a long-awaited reprieve. The immediate post-op pain was significant but managed with medication. Within a week, the sharp pain subsided to a dull ache. After two weeks, he could sit comfortably for short periods. A month later, he was back on the road, pain-free and without bleeding for the first time in years. Emotionally, he moved from shame and stoic endurance to immense relief and gratitude. He regained not just physical comfort but also his confidence and peace of mind, no longer dreading every workday.
