How Can Painful External Hemorrhoid Be Treated?

How can I find pain relief for an external hemorrhoid until I can get to a doctor to have surgery on it. Have bad pain for a week and tried almost everything -- sitz, creams, suppositories, prep H, aspirins. Any other suggestions? What about hydroco/apap -- which i want to avoid.

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to external haemorrhoids. I see that you have already used creams for local application.

I recommend using noninflammatory medication such ad Ibuprofen three times a day. If the symptoms continue I recommend using hydrocodone/acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
