If it is not severe (hemorrhoids does not prolapse) it may be treated with home-based measures and by following preventative tips. Prolapsed and large hemorrhoid lumps require fixative procedures or surgery (in very servere cases).

Small hemorhoids can be less annoying if you take care with what you eat, for example. If you do so, you'll probably not even notice them.

My doctor said that once you get hemorrhoids you're pretty much stuck with it until you have it surgically removed. So it does heal but it can flare up at any given moment, so make sure you take in lots of fiber and rink more water.

Hemorrhoids can be very painful lots of women get them during pregnancy and immediately following labour but they revert /shrink and cause no further trouble once the effects of pregnancy subside , provided bowels are kept regular and fiber is taken in the diet, men can get them just the same usually thro lack of muscle tone and poor toilet habits , never hang on to a poo if you gotta go go! Use a proprietary cream/ suppository for the acute flair ups, but really helpful are perineum exercises, these can be done any where any time sitting standing lying down, simply clench the buttocks together really tightly then relax slowly, repeat this exercise as often as possible . You will find this very helpful if you stick at it for a while. I wish you well.

My sister got hemorrhoids when she had her baby, she drinks a tea that has healed her hemorrhoids, for reals!!! I'll get you the name and I'll post it up.

that would be kool!

Hemorrhoids are a pain in the .....!

The tea that helps is known as kombucha tea, I drink it and love it. In my humble opinion the best place to get a starter culture for this is Emperors Best at spam link, I have tried others and this one excelled. Making it is easy - although different, and a good tea tastes like a sparkling apple cider. It comes with directions and the culture can be reused over and over to give you lots and lots of tea. You can tell I love this stuff.

Also new on the market is dannon yogurts "activia". This will undoubtedly help as well.

A hemorrhoid is like a varicose vein. Horse chestnut is a herb that helps with that.

Give yourselves time to heal up, this is not like taking an aspirin for a headache.

Good luck and God bless!
