Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Hemorrhoids can recur. You can take fibre rich food and stool softeners to decrease its incidence.
You can take non habit forming stool softeners like softovac also. Also consume lot of plain water and have regular exercise like brisk walking or jogging. Over the counter hemorrhoid ointments containing corticosteroid and anesthetic will be helpful for local application. Brands like proctosedyl is available for this.
If there is no improvement then get it examined by a general surgeon.
Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
