Along with an effective treatment to relieve your symptoms, there are a few other easy steps you can take to find relief:
Hygiene and bathing
- Wash your bottom with unscented soap after each bowel movement. Then dry off thoroughly by gently patting with a soft towel.
- Wear loose, cotton underwear instead of synthetic fibres to keep the area as dry as possible.
- Avoid using talcum powder.
- Take warm baths
- Use a sitz bath, available from a medical supply store, with warm water and Epsom salts
- Apply cold compresses
In most cases, your symptoms will clear up within a week or two. And by making a few small changes to your lifestyle, you can minimize the chances of haemorrhoid coming back to the same degree, if at all.
Haemorrhoid treatment
Use treatments, such as ANUSOL™ Haemorrhoidal Suppositories for your internal haemorrhoid symptoms. Suppositories are inserted directly into the rectum to deliver medication straight to the hemorrhoids to help reduce swelling, and ease the burning sensation.
Use treatments, such as ANUSOL™ Haemorrhoidal Ointment for your internal or external haemorrhoidal symptoms. ANUSOL™ reduces the swelling associated with haemorrhoid.
