Here is the list of hemorrhoid treatments from webmd.com:
Banding. Prolapsed hemorrhoids are often removed using rubber-band ligation. A special tool secures a tiny rubber band around the hemorrhoid, shutting off its blood supply almost instantly. Within a week, the hemorrhoid shrivels and falls off.

Coagulation or cauterization. Using either an electric probe, a laser beam or an infrared light, a tiny burn painlessly seals the end of the hemorrhoid, causing it to close off and shrink. This is most useful for prolapsed hemorrhoids.

Surgery. For large internal hemorrhoids or extremely uncomfortable external hemorrhoids (such as thrombosed hemorrhoids that are too painful to live with), your physician may elect traditional surgery, called hemorrhoidectomy..

The success rate for hemorrhoid removal approaches 95%, but unless dietary and lifestyle changes are made, hemorrhoids are likely to recur.
There was also mention of injections to destroy the hemorrhoid, but these were for internal hemorrhoids, which I assumed did not apply. I’m sure that if banding hurts, the doctor who performs the procedure will prescribe some pain killers for you.
