Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
You mentioned in query that you are a patient of third degree hemorrhoids ( piles)
As piles are very painful with itching and burning.
Brufen is a pain killer.
In my opinion this will further aggravate the condition of piles.

Frankly I would like to advise you please consult a surgeon and get in an operation and relax.
Just due to fear and hesitation you are reluctant for surgery.
Don't fear at all this is very minor surgery and will be best for your hemorrhoids.
Hope I have answered your query. If further any question I will be happy to help.
Good luck for speedy recovery.
