Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern. Some advices that I can give to you are : -Do not use soap to clean around your anus when treating a hemorrhoid -To minimize pain, soak in a warm tub of water for at least 10 minutes every day. You can also sit on a warm water bottle to relieve the pain of external hemorrhoids. If the pain is unbearable, use an over-the-counter medicated suppository, ointment, or cream to relieve the burning and itching. -If you’re constipated, you can also use an over-the-counter fiber supplement to help soften your stool. -Topical treatments, such as hydrocortisone or hemorrhoid cream, can ease your discomfort from hemorrhoids. Soaking your anus in a sitz bath for 10 to 15 minutes per day can also help. -Practice good hygiene by cleaning your anus with warm water during a shower or bath every day. But don’t use soap, as soap can aggravate hemorrhoids. Also avoid using dry or rough toilet paper when you wipe after a bowel movement. -Use a cold compress on your anus can help reduce hemorrhoid swelling. Pain relievers, such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or aspirin can also alleviate the pain or discomfort. Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I ll be glad to help, thanks!
