witch hazel and baby wipes

Terry in Gaston SC - best
The trick to keeping the pain and itch at bay, is to keep the area clean, not just clean but extremely clean, first use soft lint free tp, most proctologists recomend never using dry paper, but I cant use wet tp, I use the cheap wal-mart brand baby wipes, and keep the box, and buy the refills(ecologically sound), when you open a new pack of wipes, pour about a 1/4th bottle of witch hazel into the wipes, it makes them more moist, and they are safe for flushing even with a septic system, use these every time you have a bm, or an occasional itch from sweating, and I will guarantee you not to have problems with itch and pain again.

Lemon juice

terri g in warren, ri - best
Squeeze a few drops of lemon on a cotton ball, until saturated, and apply directly. Make sure the area is clean first. There's a very mild tingle, but it doesn't last at all, and it's instant relief. They shrink and go back in place. Use the juice of real lemons only.

Prevention is better...

Robert in Illinois - best
You'll find tons of information that describes various remedies; but not enough attention is spent on understanding cause because our bodies are as different as our habits and lifestyles. If you get a hemorrhoid, write down a list of activities that your performed in the last 4 hours. Keep this in journal form, and evaluate for patters. Once you know the types of activities that cause you discomfort, simply stop doing those activities. Presto... like magic, they are gone - forever.

No cure, but no itching, either.

KM in NH - three stars
I've had bad hemorrhoids forever, and I never have itching. Keeping clean is the answer.

I am meticulously clean, and I keep wet baby type wipes on the back of the toilet. Anytime the TP seems insufficient to get things clean enough, I pull out a wet wipe, an finish up.

This works well, and I never have an itching problem.

To my knowledge, surgery is the only cure, but I am afraid of the surgery, so have no info on that.

Frozen Aloe Strips

Kay in SG - best
Cut fresh Aloe gel into strips about 3.5cm X 1cm with pointed tip.

Place them in a container. Make sure the strips are separate from each other so that when you use them you do not have to tear them apart.

Use a strip to insert into your anus with your finger. This should be done at night and morning, if your hemorrhoids is not too painful or inflamed to touch.

This remedy comes from a radio talk. It has proven to be very helpful.

Natural physical motion

Charles Mathison in cfmesq@hotmail.com - best
1. Stand on your toes, upright.
2. Keeping legs straight, bend over as if to touch your toes. Don't strain. You don't have to touch your toes, just bend over.
3. Repeat three times, each morning and each nite.
4. Carry on for 2 wks., or until problem ceases.
There are no golfers with hemmorrhoids, they bend over all the time to place their balls or pick them up . Bending over is a natural, historically common behaviour outmoded by civilization. The motion causes retraction of the offending blood vessels, and relief and/or prevention of the problem.

Help For Hemmies

Patty in Kansas - best
My hemmies put me in the emergency room one night and the P.A. told me to go home and soak 'em in warm water with Epsom Salt. I did and have had no problems going on 5 years now but you will need some moisturizing lotion for your "cheeks".
