What can I do to relieve my painful hemorrhoids, other than sitz baths?

Question

Hello, I have a hemorrhoid that has been causing me pain for 7 days. I use Anusol morning and night every day and I don't have any constipation problems. I also try to do sitz baths as well as avoid movements that contract the muscles of this area, although it is difficult to avoid when eliminating stools every day.

Good morning, ma'am, You can apply this product twice a day and after each bowel movement. It can take up to 14 days to heal because the area is easily irritated during a bowel movement. For this purpose, I suggest using unscented wet wipes to clean (or a wet towel), as this may be less irritating. Get up as soon as you finish: many people read the newspaper or make phone calls while having a bowel movement, but you should avoid staying in this position. Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist
