Apply cool or cold compresses: crushed ice in a clean sock will shrink the vessels and alleviate the pain. Lie on a thick towel to keep water from soaking your sheet.
To relieve itching, take a short soak in a warm bath to which a half-cup of baking soda has been added. (While warm water can soothe an itchy bottom, it can also dilate blood vessels and further aggravate bleeding, so don't stay in more than a few minutes.)
Place a cotton ball or gauze pad soaked in cool witch hazel (or any other medicated pad recommended by your healthcare provider) against the hemorrhoid to help shrink it and ease the discomfort.
If you must sit on a very sore bottom, buy a rubber donut to place on your sitting surface. Yet some women find the donut aggravating by putting pressure on the buttocks. Alternately, sit on a pillow, or lean to one side while sitting.
Check with your doctor before using an over-the-counter medication as some of these can be absorbed through the rectal tissue and into the bloodstream, yet there is little evidence that these ointments are dangerous to baby.

Warm wash cloth and no straining while bowel movements.
Try hemorrhoid cream for comfort.

Depending on their severity, an over the counter suppository should help or ease discomfort. If this doesnt help, consult your doctor.
