This study investigated a new understanding of hemorrhoid formation and evaluated a novel systemic treatment. For 200 years, hemorrhoids were conventionally understood as isolated swollen veins. However, our new "War-Drill Model" proposes that hemorrhoids are primarily caused by blood pooling (venous congestion) in the anal region, which then secondarily leads to vascular deformation. This congestion is hypothesized to arise from either underlying health issues ("War Mode") or natural physiological and hormonal changes ("Drill Mode"). We conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized controlled trial on 300 patients with Grade 2-3 hemorrhoids to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nimsai Herbal. This study explores the potential for "War Mode" hemorrhoids to serve as an early warning sign for other serious underlying conditions and aims to validate a novel systemic therapeutic approach.
