Hello, Thanks for the query.
Aloe vera gel has been used as an application on external hemorrhoids on a regular basis. Because of its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, the application and massage (preferably twice a day) helps reduce the irritation and size of the lesions. You may use the gel for about two or three weeks till the shrinkage occurs.The duration can not be exactly specified. While this remedy is used it is better to observe all the necessary precautions like taking less spicy food, increasing intake of green leafy vegetables,fruits and plenty fluids should be continued.Thanks.
