  1. Use a drop of lavender aromatherapy oil on  a cotton wool ball to wipe the area after you have been to the toilet, this is very soothing.


  2. To relieve the pain and swelling, cut an onion in half, bruise slightly and apply to affected area.

    To avoid this situation in the future, add more raw vegetables to your diet.  (Most people don't eat ANY.)  I order to obtain the correct amount of insoluble fiber, and the necessary enzymes for digestion, you should consume two cups of raw fibrous vegetables (carrots, celery, cauliflower, broccoli) per day.

  3. Most hemorrhoids can be treated with simple changes to diet and bowel habits. Most do not require surgery or other treatment unless the hemorrhoids are very large and painful. For home care and prevention tips, see the Home Treatment and Prevention sections of this topic.

    The goal of nonsurgical procedures used to treat hemorrhoids, called fixative procedures, is to reduce the blood supply to the hemorrhoid so it shrinks or goes away. The scar tissue left in its place helps support the anal tissue and helps prevent more hemorrhoids from developing.

    Fixative procedures include tying off the hemorrhoids with a rubber band (rubber band ligation) or injecting chemicals to shrink the tissue (injection sclerotherapy). One other fixative procedure uses heat, laser, or electric current to create scar tissue (coagulation therapy).

    Surgical removal of hemorrhoids (hemorrhoidectomy) can be used for large internal hemorrhoids, when several small hemorrhoids are present, or when other treatments have not controlled bleeding. Sometimes a combination of treatments (for example, a fixative procedure and a hemorrhoidectomy) is the most effective way to treat hemorrhoids.

    Hemorrhoidectomy versus fixative procedures for internal hemorrhoids

    Fixative procedures are usually tried before surgery if hemorrhoids are small and stick out of the a**s during a bowel movement but return to their normal position afterward (second-degree hemorrhoid). For more information about fixative procedures, see the Other Treatment section of this topic.

    Hemorrhoidectomy may provide better long-term results than fixative procedures. However, surgery is more expensive, requires longer recovery times, is usually more painful, and has a greater risk of complications.

    Fixative procedures are the preferred treatment for people older than age 70 and those in poor health.

  4. Take an oatmeal bath

  5. Just a tiny dab of Vick's vapor rub.  Cools and soothes.

  6. Definitely Witch Hazel. You can get a bottle at Walmart or Target for less than a buck. Apply several times per day.

  7. Do not use Vick's Vapor Rub...it will sting!!!  Try taking a cool tea bag and apply to area or Aloe vera gel.

  8. DON'T KNOW OF ANY, BUT YOU MUST HAVE BEEN STRAINING TO HAVE A BOWEL MOVEMENT.  THIS IS WHAT I HAVE LEARNED IN LIFE.   CONSTIPATION CAN BE TREATED BY A LAXATIVE, SUPPOSITORIES AND IF THAT DOES NOT WORK. THEN TRY AN e***a.   AN e***a IS THE QUICKEST WAY TO RID YOURSELF OF CONSTIPATION.  HOPE THIS HELPS.

  9. I've heard of people using witch hazel, ask the pharmacist
