Hemorrhoids are enlarged blood vessels around the anus. Constipation, pregnancy, child birth, obesity, poor fiber in diet, poor bath room habits, postponing bowel movements, straining whilst lifting or vomiting contribute to development of hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids tend to get worse over time, and it should be treated as soon as it is diagnosed. Several surgical and non-surgical techniques are used to treat hemorrhoids.
Advice
1.     Apply locally Anovate cream or Shield ointment or Faktu ointment every six hours daily
2.     Syrup Duphalac 2 teaspoonful per oral at bed time for constipation
3.     Take high fiber diet such as split peas, lentils, black beans, lima beans, baked beans, whole grains, vegetables such as artichoke, green peas, and sprouts and fruits
4.     Drink 4 – 5 liters of water daily
5.     Avoid weight lifting
6.     Avoid straining while defecating
7.     Avoid coughing
8.     Investigation – Hb%
