Conventional Hemorrhoid Treatments

If you suffer from hemorrhoids, you'd know how frustrating and painful they can be. Many people suffer in silence and are embarrassed to seek help. Left untreated, hemorrhoids can become worst and surgery may be required.

The conventional hemorrhoid treatments are creams, ointments, suppositories and pills.

Creams and ointments are applied to the anus area to soothe blood vessels and reduce inflammation. They provide temporary relief from hemorrhoid symptoms but do not address the cause of the problem. Hence, it is likely for hemorrhoids to flare up again.

Suppository is inserted into the rectum to provide moisture and lubrication, so the affected area can heal.

Pills regulate blood pressure and tighten vein tissue in the hemorrhoid. It remains questionable whether pills can address the problem and they may cause potential side effects.
