Hemmoroids relief

|
| |
There are simple and well known methods of relief such as applying a cold compress on the area of the hemmroids, or use a hot sitz bath a couple of times every day. Then we have the more extreme ones like taking a sitz bath filled with a hot bottle of red wine (yes that is actually one we have come across - but it may be more effective to drink up the wine).
Treating hemmroids (hemroids)
Hemmoroids relief such as using creams or ointments will offer a temporary relief from the pain while the hemorrhoids cure naturally - or while you use other hemorroids medication for the cure. Hemroid prevention can be as simple as using the right diet and having lots of exercise (that is especially important if you have a job where you sit most of the day). On the other extreme, there is surgery when nothing else helps but in between the extremes, there are several good options for hemmeroids treatment.
Hemmoroids suppository and hemorroids cream
You can get suppositories without prescription - there are brands like Xyloproct or Scheriproct and many others available from most pharmacies or drugstores. You can also get hemorrhoid cremes with the purpose of stopping the itching, these cremes are often hydrocortison or midison lipid or similar. Many of the non-prescription creams or suppositories are hydrocortison based, there are also cotton pads with witch hazel or some other numbing substance which will achieve a similar effect on your hemmeroids.
Then of course there is the very well known Preparation H. This is one of the bestselling hemmeroid creams. Preparation H will shrink the swelling of the irritated tissue and it is a very good treatment. It also provides a fast relief from all burning and itching which is a very frequent result of hemorhoids. Yet another well known cream is Tronolane, it is again a relief and also available in suppository form. Tronolane uses pramoxine hydrochloride as active substance. The best effect is achieved if you apply 3-4 times every day on the area affected. From Nelsons you can get a good range of creams well suited to soothe and provide temporary relief. These are made from tinctures from plants using aesculus hippocastanum as the active substance for hemmroid removal.
It can be worth noting that long term use of any cortison based cream can result in other problems, most noticeably dermatites or skin atrophy. Use any cortison cream with care and avoid using it for long term relief without first consulting your physicist. You can also use a Xylocain creme which has the effect of an anaestathic and it will help in removing some of the pain during your bowel movements.
Hemorrhoids (hemorhoids) ointments summary
Effective hemmroid relief can often be accomplished with anti-inflammatory herbal treatments and ointments for relieving itching and burning. One of the most well known ointments for hemorrhoids are Preparation H as mentioned above but there are also many other ointments. There are the anaeshetic ointments like xylocaine (see above), or homeopathic (herbal) hemroid ointments often based on hazel and there are the hydrocortisone based ones - some of the latter also available in stronger form by prescription for more advanced treatment.
Haemmoroids can be either internal or external. Haemroids of the external, or prolapsed type of hemmerhoids are often the worst as there is more risk these hemriods will start bleeding or become inflamed. Internal haemmoroids can sometimes prolapse during a bowel movement and then go back again. Treatment of haemroids (hemmeroids) can range from herbal cures to haemmroid surgery. Pictures of hemmeroids are available on the net for your reference.
