Hemorrhoidectomy is one of the operations that causes the greatest intensity of pain. Treatment of postoperative pain is essential for the well-being of the patient. Long-term use of opioids and different drugs can have unintended consequences.

Patients who have undergone a hemorrhoidectomy are included in the study, the pain treatment modality is conceived by the treating surgeon or anesthesiologist. The first modality is to administer pain killers on-demand depending on visual analog scales of pain and the second modality to give pain killers on determined hours.
