Hemorrhoidectomy is an important surgery to relieve discomforts of patients that suffer from symptomatic hemorrhoids. This review study was done to investigate the useful plants for the management of post-surgery discomforts according to Avicenna’s view. Methods: Administrated herbs by Avicenna were chosen using “Bavasir” keyword (traditional term for hemorrhoids) from Canon of medicine. Result: Some herbs including Hypericum perforatum, Cocos nucifera, Anethum graveolens etc. were the most prescribed species by Avicenna for the management of post-hemorrhoidectomy complications. Conclusion: The most prescribed herbal medicines by Avicenna are good candidates to relieve discomforts of patients after hemorrhoidectomy operation.
