HI. Thanks for taking my question. I assume I have Hemmoroids. I have been using the usual creams-Prep H. Anusol. My wife gave me a small tin of medicated PENATEN cream and i was wondering if this is better to treat with. Could you give me a list of over counter creams that will honestly work and some good advice THANKS TIM

Thank you very much for contacting healthcare magic..

You have problem of hemorroid that can treated by some diet and lifestyle modifications.

If you have problem of bleeding and pain than hydrocortisone ointment helpful for pain and inflammation problem.

Avoid excessive straining at toilet.
Drink more water per day..
Avoid spicy foods .
Avoid straing.

Avoid constipation problem by taking high fiber foods. Stool softner can use for constipation problem.

Warm water sitz bath also helpful.
After taking this much care still symptoms are present than consent a physician for further treatment.

I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
Take care.
Thank you.
