Self-Care Remedies -
For external hemorrhoids, try ice compresses or warm-water sitz baths two or three times daily.

Don't strain excessively during bowel movements, and don’t stay on the toilet longer than necessary.

To ease defecation, apply zinc oxide paste or powder, or petroleum jelly, to the anal opening. Use a latex glove when doing so.

Apply a poultice made from "elderberry" to soothe swollen veins and relieve pain. Grind a small amount of the herb, mix with warm water until it becomes a paste, spread on gauze, and apply to anus for a couple of hours.

"Witch hazel" cream is another popular topical remedy in gel or glycerine tincture form; avoid alcohol–based products as they will be very irritating to rectal and anal tissues.

After a bowel movement, clean the anal area thoroughly but gently. Use soft toilet tissue moistened with warm water or witch hazel, or pre-moistened wipes. To dry the area, dab--don't scrub--it with a soft, clean disposable cloth. Another alternative for drying the area is to use a blow dryer. Do not be aggressive in your cleaning as this can inflame veins.

Eat a high-fiber diet with plenty of fruits (especially citrus fruits which also contain vein-strengthening flavonoids), vegetables, grains, and legumes.

To avoid constipation, drink at least eight glasses of water a day (more during hot, humid weather).

Stay away from foods that may aggravate hemorrhoids: nuts, red pepper, mustard, coffee (regular and decaffeinated), and alcohol.

Avoid laxatives. Diarrhea can be as aggravating to hemorrhoids as constipation.

When lifting weights or heavy objects (or during a bowel movement), breathe normally. Holding your breath increases abdominal pressure.

For comfort, wear cotton underwear and loose-fitting clothes.

P.S. - the following supplements are helpful, as well

Taken together, vitamin C, flavonoids, and the herb "butcher's broom" will help tone and shrink enlarged veins.

Zinc will speed up the healing process. Add copper when taking zinc longer than one month as it interferes with copper absorption.

Psyllium or flaxseeds will add enough fiber to your diet to bulk up the stool and make its passage easier.

For painful hemorrhoids, apply an oil or ointment containing the herb "St. John's wort", especially after bowel movements. It helps shrink swollen tissues.

Because hemmoroids are due to weakness of the valves within veins, using the herbal vein tonic" horse chestnut" will help increase the muscular tone of the vessels and keep the veins from bulging. (Be sure to use a commercial product and not parts of the tree in your back yard. Unprocessed horse chesnut may contain toxins).

Diarrhea can contribute to hemorrhoid formation because the bowel undergoes pressure strains due to the condition. Undue pressure on the veins that make up internal hemorrhoidal structures can worsen existing damage. Internal hemorrhoids are not visible, unless they proplapse (protrude) from the anus, either constantly or during a bowel movement. If this is the case, then you have a grade III or IV internal hemorrhoid. If the protrusion is on the anal verge or the area surrounding the anus, then its likely an external hemorrhoid. Reducing pressure from issues of diarrhea and constipation will help. Not straining during a bowel movement, not lifting heavy objects, not sitting for extended periods, all will help.

An external hemorrhoid is simply a vein located at the anal verge, the wall of which as weakened and protruded. Don't push on it, this will only increase pressure and worsen it. The body has to repair the vein wall and rebuild the integrity. This takes time, perhaps weeks, if all goes well. Use sitz baths and over-the-counter medications such as pads or creams to provide symptom relief in the interim. These won't solve the issue long term, but will give the tissue a better chance at self-healing.

Internal hemorrhoids are a different matter and require more intervention. Your best bet is to educate yourself about the condition, its causes and what options there are to treat it both short and long term. Don't ignore it though, hemorrhoids tend to become chronic in nature, lasting years or decades in some cases.

Not a cure but to help symptoms. Make sure you eat a lot of fibre. If you don't eat it in food take metamucil or another product like that. Straining on the toilet is not good!! Then, drink lots of water and lay off soda and coffee, it irritates them. Then use preperation H and buy some witch hazel. use the witch hazel to cool and soothe anything that is outside by using cotton balls or pads. Then, if you need to go to a good pharmacy and buy a sitz bath. It fits on the toilet and you can pput warm water and betadine or epsom salts in it and that will make it feel much better. you can take a bath also to get that done but, it takes a lot more water and medicine. If you do these things and look on web md for other things as far as diet goes, and it doesn't improve over the next month at least some you may have to have surgery. It hurts but, then it's over. Please do what you need to do to help yourself first and do it all the time. Love coming your way.

Hemorrhoids are associated with constipation and straining at bowel movements. How to get rid of hemorrhoids https://tr.im/JiBgH
Pregnancy is also associated with hemorrhoids. These conditions lead to increased pressure within the hemorrhoidal veins that causes them to swell. Other conditions, for example chronic liver disease, may also cause increased venous pressure and may be associated with hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are very common and are estimated to occur in up to one-half of the population by age 50.
