No, you cannot cure a hemorrhoid yourself; medical intervention will be necessary. If the hemorrhoid is not painful, you might choose to just live with it. You can manage it with sitz baths, over the counter preparations, stool softeners, diet changes and spending less time sitting.
If painful, several treatments are available and your doctor would choose the one he feels is best for you. The choices would be:
cryotherapy
ligation (tying them off)
surgery
