Does anyone know how a hemorrhoid is taken care of?

September 6, 2011 7 Comments »

I work in overstress and delivery and have heard that pregnant women get hemorrhoids including the excess weight that they advance during the pregnancy. What is done to assess these hemorrhoids? Do they just go away? Are they something that has to be removed by surgery? What does that preperation H stuff do? I honestly am not making a joke, I just don’t recognize what the stuff does. Thankfulness pro any help.

    Preparation H really shrinks the hemorrhoids. Some people like the cooling gel pro some quick relief. Others like the Witch Hazel pads pro some cooling relief too. Surgery is generally reserved pro a last option in the hemorrhoids that are “bleeders”. This is a very painful surgery normal. Hope this helps.

    Preparation h is excellent it shrinks the hemorrhoids. sometimes they have to be removed by surgery. Also– regular bowel movement helps– constipation makes it worse because you have to strain to use it, then the hardness of the stool pushes the hemrrhoids out. Also there are hemorrhoidal pads that can cool the area. Go to the doc.

    They don’t just go away.. sometimes if large or painful enough will have to be removed by surgical intervention. Preparation H had a chemical that causes reduces the swelling of the bandanna; therefore, easing the pain to some extent. The hemorrhoids aren’t necessarily caused by the weight advance.. ordinarily from constipation …

    I had a real painful hemorrhoid once and had to go the Doctor. He told me to take very warm baths to shrink it. I told him that I had tried preperation H and it didn’t help. He told me that it just makes it itch and burn more.

    Do the warm bath treatment that will help you.

    Question any fashion model, they recognize what Preperation H does, it shrinks the hemorrhoidal bandanna. It also works fantastic pro bags under the eyes from too much sleep or partying or salt.

    Hemorrhoidectomies can be removed through relatively minor surgical proceedures. Depending on the depth of the hemorrhoid, whether near the rectal opening or further up the anal canal positive the mass of the hemorrhoid will determine whether surgery or simply laser treatment is appropriate. Some are so slight and external, topical anesthesia is all that is required.

    PS- Kegel exercises prevent hemorrhoids!!!

    There are loads of non-medical and medical ways to treat them. Here’s a newer treatment (I have no connection to them)…
