Switch to a natural whole foods diet with lots of soluble and non soluble fiber (produce, oats, apples, wheat and rice bran, whole grains) and they will go away..mine did.\n\nSome of the herbs listed for hemorrhoids in Dr. Christopher's huge herbal--"school of Natural Healing" are Black walnut, burdock, butternut, cascara sagrada, chaparral, chickweed, goldenseal, licorice, mullein, plantain, red raspberry. spearmint, witch hazel, and yarrow.\n\nI'm sorry I don't have time to research the application right now but I did with witch hazel..It says take internally and give a rectal injection of an infusion or decoction (tea) and burdock..make a strong tea..cool..inject 3-4 tbs a day (more in bad cases) and especially after each B.M.--mullein =--apply mullein ointment and drink the tea..that should get you started.

Well, people can have hemmoroids that don't cause them pain.  But Most of the time, it does.  The pain of hemmoroids can be eased with icing the area.  (Wrapping an ice cube in a paper towel and securing it in place with a female sanitary napkin.)  Store bought treatments rarely work also.  The best thing to do is to wait it out unless it's causing too much trouble then you need to see a doctor to have it possibly removed.

Swallow a few dozen nightshade berries. It works very well, and is all natural.

For many people hynotherapy can actually work very well.  Trust me, it's nothing like the old movies--you know, with  the swinging pocket watch and all.  ;-)

Diet plays an important role in whether a person gets hemorrhoids.  High fiber diets increase "bulk" and allows your solid waste to move through easily. Low fiber diets tend to constipate you, then you strain, and the straining will provoke hemorrhoids.\n\nDrinking plenty of water will help keep your solid waste soft!\n\nToo much sitting, not just on the toilet will also provoke them.  Good exercise helps.  Hemorrhoids are related to varicose veins, and exercise helps keep varicose veins at bay.\n\nIf they are really bad, there are surgical and some less invasive things your doctor can do.

Not to be embarrassed, it's all part of being a human being. Things don't work perfectly all the time like they're 'supposed to.'\n\nAll the health things that others have mentioned are good ideas. Eat a healthy diet with plenty of fiber, because my guess is that you're not getting enough, even if this is being partly caused by something like hemorrhoids. Drink plenty of fluids, as well--at least 8 glasses of water a day. If you do that, you shouldn't even need stool softeners.\n\nExcersizing regularly can only help, too. It will strengthen the muscles that aid in elimination, and tone the rest of the muscles in the body, as well as increase your circulation.\n\nIf you find yourself in a jam in a social situation, do what the other person said in terms of showering. But also, there are wipes that you can keep by the toilet--they use them for vaginal and hemorrhoidal wipes (Tucks, I think). They can help to have around in case you can't take a shower, at least it's like a 'hand bath' for that area.\n\nWhen you're rich and well-off if you still are having that problem, you can always have a bidet installed in your bathroom. Lol. No wonder the French are som comfortable!\n\nFeel better.\n\n______________________

naturally?  Use goldenseal root for 10 days then repeat in one month.  On a daily basis, eat yougurt with active cultures or take an  acidophilus supplement.  Ginger and cabbage juice also aid in the healing and acute treatment process.

I agree with the others--go to the doctor.  I work in natural medicine but I'd never suggest trying to treat worms herbally.  Herbal remedies take too long, are too unreliable and can be dangerous.  In my opinion, your physician is your best bet.

See your doctor ASAP, but some suggestions here:\nMedical treatments\nSome people require the following medical treatments for chronic or severe hemorrhoids:\n\nHemorrhoidolysis/Galvanic Electrotherapy: desiccation of the hemorrhoid by electrical current. \nDilation: stretching of the anal sphincter muscle. Although no longer popular due to potential side effects, this treatment can be successfully applied to select cases of strangulated hemorrhoids. Rarely used anymore. \nRubber band ligation: elastic bands are applied onto an internal hemorrhoid to cut off its blood supply. Within several weeks, the withered hemorrhoid is sloughed off during normal bowel movement. \nSclerotherapy (injection therapy): sclerosant or hardening agent is injected into hemorrhoids. This causes the vein walls to collapse and the hemorrhoids to shrivel up. \nCryosurgery: a frozen tip of a cryoprobe is used to destroy hemorrhoidal tissues. Rarely used anymore. \nLaser, infared or BICAP coagulation: laser, infrared beam, or electricity is used to cauterize the affected tissues. Laser is now much less popular. \nHemorrhoidectomy: a true surgical procedure to excise and remove hemorrhoids. \nStapled Hemorrhoidectomy: Also called the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids, it is designed to resect soft tissue proximal to the dentate line, which disrupts the blood flow to the hemorrhoids. It is generally less painful than complete removal of hemorrhoids and also allows for faster recovery times. It's meant for hemorrhoids that fall out or bleed and is not helpful for painful outside conditions. \nFor some people, surgery may be the only treatment option for very severe cases, chronic or resistant cases of hemorrhoids, such as prolapsed, thrombosed, or strangulated hemorrhoids.

Actually, some animals can get hemorrhoids. The link below advertises "natural remedies" for pet hemorrhoids! I kid you not.\n\nHumans, and pet animals, are more prone to hemorrhoids because of their diet. If you're out eating a "natural" diet, tons of insoluble fibre etc., you don't have to strain as hard to pass waste. Humans are especially prone because of our tendency to be upright, and to sit; these positions limit drainage from the rectal veins.

A few things.\n\nFirst, avoid constipation; straining at a hard stool can increase the odds of hemorrhoids.\n\nSecond, keep moving.  A sit-down lifestyle predisposes for hemorrhoids.\n\nThird, don't sit on the john for prolonged periods of time.  The toilet seat is almost a tourniquet for the veins in that area--long sits on the pot, large risk of hemorrhoids.\n\nSimple stuff--and nothing is 100% effective in preventing hemorrhoids--but these are the big ones.

Most of OTC medications don't bring lasting relief, however, keep in mind that beside hemorrhoids itself you have also to cure the cause of hemorrhoids.\n\nHemorrhoids develop due to too much pressure put on the veins in the anal areal. They are also known as varicose veins of the rectum.\n\nThe most common cause is constipation, other are pregnancy, overweight, overeating, sitting or standing for long period of time, genetic predisposition, fatigue liver, Vitamin B-6 deficiency, acid/alkaline imbalance. Find out what is caused your hemorrhoids, and treat also this, while treating hemorrhoids.

Hydrogen peroxide will do the trick! Use a Q-tip and dab it on to remove the majority of blood. Cold water works well too. And last but not least, wash it as usual, not throwing it into the dryer until the spot is gone (may need to wash 2x).

Can Hemorrhoids be Treated?\nYes. Medical treatment of hemorrhoids initially is aimed at relieving symptoms. Symptoms can be reduced by: sitting in a a warm tub, Ice packs (to help reduce swelling), usage of a hemorrhoidal cream. Increasing fiber and fluids in the diet will also help (makes softer stool).\n\nIn some cases, hemorrhoids must be treated surgically. The doctor will shrink and destroy the hemorrhoidal tissue.\n\nWhat are Hemorrhoids?\nHemorrhoids are swollen but normally present blood vessels in and around the anus and lower rectum that stretch under pressure. Hemorrhoids are very similar to varicose veins in the legs. The increased pressure and swelling may result from straining to move the bowel. Factors contributing to hemorrhoids are: pregnancy, heredity, aging, and chronic constipation or diarrhea. \n\nHemorrhoids may occur inside the anus (internal) or under the skin around the anus (external). An internal hemorrhoid may protrude through the anus outside the body. This is called a protruding hemorrhoid.\n\nSymptoms of Hemorrhoids?\nThere are many symptoms and everyone with hemorrhoids will not experience all of the symptoms. Some of the symptoms are: bright red blood covering the stool, painful swelling around the anus, a hard lump around the anus, fissures, fistulae, abscesses, or irritation and itching (pruritus ani). Excessive straining, rubbing or cleaning the anus may worsen symptoms.\n\nWhat Causes Hemorrhoids?\nHemorrhoids are caused by too much pressure in the rectum, forcing blood to stretch and bulge the walls of the veins. Sometimes the pressure ruptures the veins.\n\nAre Hemorrhoids Dangerous?\nNo. Hemorrhoids usually are not dangerous or life threatening. In most cases, the symptoms of hemorrhoids will only last a few days. Not every one with hemorrhoids will experience symptoms.\n\nAre Hemorrhoids Common?\nYes. Hemorrhoids affect both men and women. About half of the population will have hemorrhoids by age 50. Hemorrhoids are also common among pregnant women. Hemorrhoids are common among pregnant women because the pressure of the fetus in the abdomen, as well as hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy, cause the hemorrhoidal vessels to enlarge. These vessels are also placed under severe pressure during childbirth. For most women, hemorrhoids caused by pregnancy are a temporary problem and given the right care will go away.\n\nHow Are Hemorrhoids Diagnosed? \nHemorrhoids are diagnosed by a doctor. The doctor will examine the anus, and rectum and look for swollen blood vessels. A digital rectal exam will also be performed. The doctor may also examine the patient with an anoscope, or a proctoscope. An anoscope is a lighted tube useful for viewing internal hemorrhoids. A proctoscope, is used to examine the entire rectum.\n\nCan Hemorrhoids Prevented? \nYes. The best way to prevent hemorrhoids is to keep stools soft so they pass easily, with little straining.\n  \n \n\n\n\n\n™
