Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Surgical removal of hemorrhoids is the treatment of choice for permanent cure.
So better to consult surgeon and get done clinical examination of hemorrhoids.
For acute pain relief, you can take painkiller like ibuprofen or acetaminophen.
Warm water bath is also good for pain relief.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your husband.Thanks.
