Fortunately, you have a number of options for treating your hemorrhoids at home. Be sure to get a proper diagnosis from your doctor before doing anything; but if the verdict is a hemorrhoid, check out these 6 simple ways you can help take the discomfort out of your hemorrhoids.
1. Warm bath. Doctors’ favorite treatment for hemorrhoids is to soak in a warm bath for 15 minutes. WebMD mentions that you can purchase a “sitz bath” that goes on the toilet for a convenient way to soak your hemorrhoids.
2. Witch hazel. Medical News Today recommends applying witch hazel directly to the hemorrhoids with a cotton ball. Witch hazel is an astringent that helps tighten the skin. If you find the hemorrhoids get irritated, you can dilute the witch hazel or try a different method.
3. Aloe vera. The Cleveland Health Clinic says that although no studies have been done with aloe vera, since aloe helps with other skin inflammations, it may help with your hemorrhoids. It definitely should not hurt. Use pure aloe and apply it directly to the hemorrhoids.
