Hemroids Treatment

There are 2 main lines for treatment of hemroids; conservative and surgical methods:

A) The conservative methods for of hemroids treatment include the following:

(1) Dietary modifications in the form of increasing the amount of fibers in diet and drinking big amounts of water. This is beneficial in preventing constipation. Constipation will worsen the hemroids by traumatizing the bowl mucosa and straining the bowl muscles.

Also dietary modifications include avoiding certain foods which are proven to worsen hemroids. These include nuts, alcohols, spicy foods, and coffee. Also, observe your diet for any other foods that may aggravate the symptoms, if you observe that a certain food is causing worsening the hemroids, avoid them for a few days to ensure that there is a positive link.

(2) Toilet re-training.

• Avoid holding stools, go to toilet once you feel the urge to pass stools.
• Avoid reading papers in the toilet. Avoid sitting in the toilet for unnecessary long time.
• Modify the method of sitting on the toilet. Flex your thighs on your abdomen and press by your elbows on your knees. This position resembles squatting which is more physiological with the process of defecation as it allows for better emptying of the colon with less straining.

(3) Behavioral modifications. these include

• Avoid sitting or standing in the same place for a long time. Move around to relieve pressure on the anorectal veins.
• Exercise regularly. This will help smooth bowel movements and prevent constipation.
• Avoid lifting heavy objects.

(4) Local hemroids treatments.

• Use ice on the area of hemroids for 10 minutes followed by hot fomentations for 20 minutes.
• Do not rub or wipe the area after a bowl motion. You can use baby wipes.
• If there is severe pain on the hemroids, bed rest may be beneficial in providing relaxation to the bowl muscles which will remove the pain.
• Take sitz baths several times daily in which the area is soaked with warm water for 15 minutes.
• Use soaps and bath washes that contain less chemicals.
• Use cotton undergarments which will absorb moisture including sweating which will worsen the hemroids symptoms.
• Local zinc preparations have two benefits; they protect the anal skin and prevent itching.
• Suppositories such as H formula will temporarily relieve the symptoms, but they have side effects with prolonged use as they may damage the anal skin. So, do not use them more than 7 – 10 days.
• Local hydrocortisone creams are beneficial in decreasing the inflammation, and preventing itching. Weak concentrations are available over the counter, if they are not effective, your doctor can prescribe stronger concentrations for you.
• Local analgesic sprays are available over the counter that can relieve the pain of inflammation.

B) Surgical hemroids treatment includes the following methods:

Conclusion:

As regards dietary and behavioral modifications, they seem to be the most effective in treating and preventing the recurrence of hemroids, however, they did not undergo extensive studies to discover the potentials behind them. So it appears that there are many secrets are still unknown in this area. The main advantage of these methods is that they are natural i.e. no drugs are used. No drugs = no side effects, no contraindications, and no drug-drug interactions. I found a book that describes many of these natural secrets that will cure hemroids in 2 days, and in addition, they will prevent the recurrence of hemroids symptoms and will improve the bowel habits on the long run. This book is popular on the internet and is used by thousands of hemroid sufferers with constantly positive feedbacks. This book is known as Hemorrhoid Miracle.

Medical hemroid treatment is actually a symptomatic treatment that will only relieve the symptoms temporarily to recur again once the treatment is stopped. Also this treatment has many side effects that will prevent it from being used for a long time.

Surgical methods to cure hemroids cause extreme pain post-operatively. Also there is no guarantee that the hemroids will not recur again after a short or a long time as long as the cause is present and unless dietary and behavioral modifications are undertaken. So, it is a very good idea to try the Hemorrhoid Miracle method as it is based on completely natural secrets that have been proved to be 100% effective and has no side effects to be careful about.
