Is Laser Treatment Required For Treating Hemorrhoids?

Question: I have had haemerroids for some time now. It is not acute. The doctor I consulted prescribed anti-haemerroid cream which I used for some time and stopped as it did not help.
I still have the problem. Although it is not very painful or discomforting yet. I would want a more long term remedy, before it worsens. What are the best options available in treatment in India?
especially, surgery vs laser treatment? pros and cons.
Thank you.
