Natural Cure for Hemorrhoids

{ Posted on Feb 26 2010 by ron }

Hemorrhoids – a medical condition that brings with it not only pain and discomfort, but also a lot of emotional baggage, like frustration and embarrassment.

Not many people are aware of how common a problem it is, and very often they shy away from confiding in their family or even seeking help from a medical specialist. If you don’t want to go to a doctor you can try some natural cure for hemorrhoids. Once you know what to look for, you’ll discover that there are enough things you can use, some from even your house to find some relief.

Pick A Natural Cure for Hemorrhoids
Apple cider vinegar is probably the best home cure for hemorrhoids. It prevents the infection from spreading and the bacteria from growing. It is also very popular for its anti-inflammatory qualities. Apply apple cider vinegar to the hemorrhoids three to four times a day for maximum benefits. The swelling will reduce within a few days, and the itching will fade immediate for a two-tiered benefit. Within a week or so, the hemorrhoids will be gone along with their misery and embarrassment.

Apple cider vinegar will also work from the inside on your internal hemorrhoids if you drink it.

Don’t be nervous about the next suggestion, it has worked on a lot of people. Take a stool and place it in front of your toilet. The height of your stool should be six inches or so. When you are passing stool, you should place your legs on it. This will raise your knees, reduce the strain on your anal canal and ease the bowel movement. Because excessive straining causes existing hemorrhoids to become worse and possibly spread, avoiding that straining will help them to heal on their own.

After passing stool, avoid using a coarse tissue paper to wipe up. It’s preferrable to even use one that is slightly  moistened, or baby wipes for improved comfort. There are also special hemorrhoid pads that are soaked in witch hazel that can be used for wiping. Keeping the area clean is very important, but it is also imperative to avoid irritating your hemorrhoid.

Cayenne pepper is another natural cure for painful hemorrhoids. There are different ways to use it. As a salve, it can be applied directly onto the hemorrhoids. If you have internal hemorrhoids, you can take capsules of cayenne pepper to heal from the inside.

With so many natural cures for hemorrhoids to choose from, relief from the aggravating symptoms of hemorrhoids is not far behind. A great deal depends on finding a cure that works for you. You don’t have to worry about any side effects since all these cures are natural. So you can even try them all until you discover the one that is the best for you.
