Internal hemorrhoids originate above the "dentate line" and are formed out of rectal mucosa and an underlying plexus of veins. Rectal mucosa has no nerves that are like the skin, and therefore internal hemorrhoids are not associated with pain. External hemorrhoids are formed of "anoderm" which is just normal external skin (without hairs) and the same underlying venous plexus. Anoderm has nerves of the same type as all the rest of your skin. External hemorrhoids hurt when they tear or clot off. Most people who have hemorrhoids have a combination of both. The external component is capable of causing pain, the internal component is responsible for bleeding with bowel movements.
Another common problem that gets confused with hemorrhoids because it's anal and it causes pain is "anal fissure", a tear in the skin lining the anus. It's painful, and its even more painful during a bowel movement.
Most of the people who have given you advice are entirely correct. Whether you have hemorrhoids or a fissure, or both, conservative nonsurgical managment is preferrable. The approach has two components. 1) Reduce anal pain, and 2) Make having a BM easier.
Anusol and other topical agents are locally anti-inflammatory and are soothing. A "Sitz" bath where you soak your tush in warm water (for extra value, add epsom salts) helps because it lets the entire pelvic floor relax a bit. Fissures, in particular, can be well managed this way, because the pain they cause induces the anal sphincter and pelvic floor to tighten which in turn causes compromised blood flow to the lining skin, reduces healing... and perpetuates pain.
The value of a fiber source cannot be over emphasized. We are terrible about fiber in our diets in America. We lead the world in colon cancer and other colon problems including diverticulitis. Eat fiber and drink water. If you eat fiber and don't drink water, it will suck the water out of your stool and paradoxically make it even tougher to move. While you are in the immediate healing phase of a painful anal lesion, you might consider using a stool softener rather than a bulking agent like fiber. Stool softeners like docusate sodium basically give you mild diarrhea. It may be nice for the week or so that you're healing the anus for it not to be stretched. Later, fiber agents can be useful for making sure you don't strain. This is a good long term strategy.

Hemorrhoids can result in a huge amount of discomfort, throb, irritation and scratching. In case you are suffering of hemorroids and you need discard them, this is surely the best approach to discard hemorrhoids : http://treathemorrhoid.kyma.info I always had stoppage or hard stools. At times i would even have torment when im resting and it would simply come on all the sudden. I figure it was a result of the nerves in that area or the body. I am normally very doubtful yet the ache was path worst than the cash it would cost to see whether it worked or not. So i tried it and it says it cure most individuals withing 48 hours session it didn't cure me that quick. In case its straining that is the problem then you need to get some more fiber in your consuming technique, notwithstanding no short of what 8 glasses of water of the day. In case its irritation then use simply sensitive tissue and add aloe to calm the area down. There are furthermore certain nourishments that can offer support. Trust me take after this technique: http://treathemorrhoid.kyma.info It unquestionably tackled my hemorrhoids problem .If you take after this procedure for a couple of days you will see that your problem will vanish.

There are a couple of suggestions. The doctor that diagnosed internal hemorrhoids should have prescribed something like Anusol HC. Use that.
On a shorter term, use a humectant (something to soften the stools) to cut the pain at the toilet. These come in different brands but sodium dodecanyl sulfosuccinate is the active ingredient in things like Doxidan and the others.
Best wishes in gettign this sorted out.

Senokot Hi Fibre (formerly Fybogel) contains Ispaghula husk, and is used for treatment of haemmorhoids, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic diarrhoea ... anything, in fact, where bulking of the stool is required. This means you pass a softer stool.
The first link tells you about Fybogel, and the following ones have stores where you can purchase it, though you may find that if you get your doctor to prescribe a big enough supply, you'll be cheaper doing it that way. The last site shows you what flavours are available.

Dont worry about it.
You need to drink plenty of water to soften the stool.
Insert a suppository to also soften the rectum and anus.
Eat plenty of fibre rich foods, such as linseeds/flaxseeds, wholemeal bread, porridge oats, plenty of fruit and vegetables bran flakes and other bran cereals etc, dried fruits, especially figs and prunes.
Maintain eating the fibre rich foods, as you need to go once a day to empty the bowel, if you are lucky twice a day! This, if kept up in the long run will probably prevent bowel cancer or any other digestive illnesses.
The water will soften the stool, the fibre rich foods will allow the food to move along the digestive tract, the porridge oats are like a vacuum, they pick up anything that may be left in the colon.
Dont stress and strain on the toilet as this makes it worse.
Hope this helps

I agree with the others that the compost will not generate much heat or action during the winter months. You have done everything right for it to work. One thing I always do with my compost pile is to add worms to the mix. In the spring you can easily find worms (especially after a spring shower) under rocks or just by digging in rich soil. When I find worms either by intentionally looking for them or by chance when digging I always place them in the compost pile making them (the worms) and me happy. It is the action of worms and other little criters that generate the heat and the decomposition. Are you composting leaves and grass clippings? In summer grass clippings will generate heat in a hurry.

The most common causes of hemorrhoids are straining during bowel movements and obesity. Follow these essential hemorrhoid prevention tips and you may not even have to delve into any hemorrhoid treatments https://tr.im/dseTR
If you’re straining during bowel movements, there is no doubt that you are suffering from constipation, and obesity only heightens your chance of experiencing these digestive issues. The best solution for hemorrhoids is to not have them at all!

Ask your doctor about an exercise routine. Regular exercise, such as walking three times a week, may reduce neuropathy pain, improve your muscle strength and help control blood sugar levels. Gentle routines such as yoga and tai chi might also help.
