There is a wide choice when trying to find a remedy for hemorrhoids - it can often be a matter of trial and error to see what suits you.
Vitamin E If you take Vitamin E capsules, they will help to relieve the pain and itching - or you can find a cream which includes vitamin E in its ingredients - but make sure that it doesn't have any harsh scents or chemicals in it as they might make you feel even worse.
Ice Packs Numbing the area by applying ice can provide great relief from the pain and itching - but don't leave the ice on too long else you run the risk of damage from ice-burn.
Alternating ice and warmth can also help.
Sitz Baths A Sitz Bath is simply a shallow, warm but not hot, bath - if you sit in one several times a day, you will find it very soothing and you will gain some relief from the discomfort.
What about pushing an external hemorrhoid back in? Sometimes, if you have an external hemorrhoid, it is possible to gently push it back up your anus - but you MUST go about this the right way.
a) make sure your hands are clean and nails short and you have some hand sanitizer within reach for afterwards; b) only do this once you are in bed for the night - this is because then, gravity will be on your side! If you stand up just after pushing the hemorrhoid back inside, then gravity will just encourage it to pop out again! c) use a bit of saliva on your finger, or some KY jelly to act as a lubricant; d) gently push the lumpy hemorrhoid back inside your anus - BE GENTLE! e) now clean your hands with the hand sanitizer and go to sleep.
With any luck, when you get up in the morning you will no longer have that irritating lump on your behind.
Be warned - if you immediately go to the toilet and push hard, it will come out again! I hope this article has helped you find a remedy for hemorrhoids that suits your circumstances.
