If you have mild hemorrhoids, most likely the doctor will tell you to buy the over the counter witch hazel pads- usually called Tucks, and change your diet to include more fresh fruits and vegetables on a daily basis. He may also give you some suppositories or a stool softener to help in the meantime. If they are bleeding and painful, he may give you a prescription for suppositories to help shrink and soothe them. The best cure is to change your diet, to eat more fiber, fruit and veggies, and to go easy on the red meat and white bread. Also drink more water and juice. You will also hear about not letting yourself get constipated and not trying to rush the job, not straining on the toilet to go and going when the call arrives instead of waiting until it's convenient. If you follow his advice and make the necessary diet changes, they will heal up in a few weeks time and not return. If you don't follow his advice, they will get worse and eventually need to be removed. This is an unpleasant procedure that you would really rather avoid if at all possible- so do try to follow his suggestions and make the changes. Hemorrhoids aren't deadly, but they can certainly make life miserable enough to think they are.

Doctor will check your hemorrhoid, try to define the cause of it. Definitely recommend you high fiber diet - lots of fruits, vegetables - and fresh water. In many cases prescription drugs don't help with hemorrhoids. An excellent natural hemorrhoids treatment is Rue Care Oil - helped in many cases were other treatments have failed.

Hemorrhoids are associated with constipation and straining at bowel movements. How to get rid of hemorrhoids https://tr.im/Vf9ve
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.

you are wasting your money if you visit the doctor becasue they will tell you to use hemorrhoid creams. Yo would be better off just buying them and trying them before you go to the doctor.

They will check your butt. (They have to make sure you are not lying). Tell you to eat more high fibre foods and drink plenty of water, then they will probably give you some cream to apply. If they are really bad (hemorrhoids) you may have to have them removed. So get that water and fruit and vegies into you!
