Problem
Hemorrhoid patients often delay or avoid physical examinations due to embarrassment, leading to postponed diagnostics and ineffective self-management. This delay can result in progressed hemorrhoids or missed risks of anal carcinoma, while the prevalence of over-the-counter recommendations without proper medical guidance further complicates care.
Solution
Hemm is a clinically validated mobile app that enables remote detection and conservative management of hemorrhoids. The app uses a unique AI algorithm that combines user answers to custom questions (HDSS+HEMM) with photos of the anorectal area to provide personalized recommendations. It also includes symptom monitoring through the HISS score, food analytics that assess fiber content and bloating risks from photos, and optional complimentary consultations with proctologists who can access user data for highly personalized support.
Target Audience
Primary users are adults experiencing hemorrhoid symptoms who seek private, remote assessment and management, as well as patients already diagnosed with hemorrhoids who need ongoing conservative care support.
