Hemorrhoid Treatment - The Natural Way in 48 Hours

Conventional vs Alternative Treatment

The 3 established healthcare management goals of hemorrhoid treatment include relieving the symptoms, arresting the worsening of the condition and preventing the recurrence of the condition. In addition to these goals, we would emphasise proactive prevention from contracting hemorrhoids.

In conventional medicine, there are 4 stages of prognosis; immediate admittance to hospital where cancer is suspected, possible admittance where there is severe pain (e.g. thrombosed external hemorrhoids and internal but thrombosed and prolapsed hemorrhoids), outpatient treatment (e.g. grades 1 or 2 hemorrhoids); intensive investigation (e.g. where more than the typical symptoms of hemorrhoids are evident).

The majority of people are comfortable going along this conventional path of hemorrhoid treatment. Well and good, if it has helped them. We are not full-blown skeptics of the big pharmaceutical companies and hospitals alternative as they do typically provide good medical soltuions. Be that as it may, conventional drugs often have side effects that we may not be apprised of even by the best of doctors as they truly believe that the cure is the main immediate goal.

Consequently, our approach is always to examine alternative treatment together with conventional medicine. This is especially so if the alternative method is a natural way that has been tried and tested by fellow sufferers, including those who have already undergone established healthcare treatment. One such alternative to hemorrhoid treatment is the H Miracle.

Apart from conventional and alternative treatment, there are many things that you can do for yourself to avoid becoming a hemorrhoid sufferer or if you are already one, to alleviate your discomfort and prevent a worsening of the condition.

Healthy Lifestyle

Cultivate this simple lifestyle habit – the balanced diet! Clichéd as it may sound but it is an irrefutable truth.

A major cause of hemorrhoids is excessive straining due to constant bouts of constipation. Accordingly, a major lifestyle objective should then be to ensure regular bowel movements comprising soft but bulky stools. This is easily achieved. Just ensure that our diet includes at least 30 gm of insoluble fiber found in fruits and leafy vegetables and by drinking 8 glasses of fluid. Fluids that work, unfortunately, do not include those with alcohol and caffeine content!

The balanced diet normally works fairly quickly. But if your bowel demands are very urgent, you may also take plant-based fiber supplements. Methyl cellulose (extracted from vegetables) is very effective. Sold under trade names like Citrucel or WillPowder, it passes through the the digestive system undigested and absorbs large quantities of water to produce a bulkier but softer stool. Another high fiber supplement is psyllium which is made from the seeds of the Indian plant Plantago ovata. Sold under the brandnames Metamucil and Fybogel psyllium acts similarly to facilitate bowel motion.

The daily goal of a fiber-packed diet is an important step in your piles treatment and recovery. This is Whether you are already afflicted with hemorrhoids or is recovering from hemorrhoids after conventional medical procedures.

Self-Treatment at Home

If you are already afflicted with hemorrhoids, the following set of practices for perianal hygiene should become a personal habit. Perianal relates to the tissues around the anal region. After passing motion, these are essential steps to note:

• Avoid soaps with perfumes or dyes

• Do not rub the anal region

– clean with the shower or bidet

– pat dry gently with a towel

• Blot dry the anus with

– damp toilet paper

– baby wipes

– moistened towelettes e.g. TUCKS Medicated Pads

– cleansing agents e.g. Balneol Hygienic Cleansing Lotion.

For pain and itch relief in hemorrhoid treatment, try one or all of the following:

• Apply ice (10-minute duration) a few times a day

• Alternately apply a warm compress (10-20 minute duration)

• Apply moist heat (using warm towels – tip: use a microwave) several times a day

• Soak the anal area in warm water (15 minute duration) a few times a day

• Take a sitz bath (i.e. warm tub of water with a tablespoon of salt added)

• Apply hemorrhoidal creams or petroleum jelly (e.g. Preparation H)

Other relief methods:

• Lie down in bed – alleviates pressure on the inflamed hemorrhoids

• Minimise standing or sitting for prolonged periods

• Minimise lifting heavy objects

• Wear loose cotton underwear to prevent moisture formation

• NEVER use the famed doughnut tire cushion – by restricting blood flow, it increases swelling!

• Diligently exercise – if nothing else, just brisk walking

• No matter how busy you are, empty your bowels as soon as the urge occurs.

Self-help is an inevitable part of hemorrhoid treatment. However, this is an IMPORTANT NOTE. Whenever any of the medicinal products mentioned above are used for piles treatment, you should consult the pharmacist at the pharmacy where you make your purchase or your personal doctor. This is especially if you have heart disease, hypertension, thyroid disease, diabetes, urination difficulties caused by prostate gland enlargement or you are currently taking any prescribed medicine.
