Here are some things you can do at home to relieve symptoms of hemorrhoids, including some home remedies: Drink water — make sure you are well hydrated. If you prefer the traditional Sitz bath, just fill the tub with a few inches of water.
These are small basins that you can attach to your toilet seat and use to wash your anal area. Add Epsom salts to the water. Add about one cup of Epsom salts to a full bathtub or two to three tablespoons of Epsom salts for a few inches of water in the tub. Keep the water warm, but not too hot.
Repeat the bath two times per day. Use a washcloth if you cannot take a bath. If you cannot take a bath, get a clean, cotton washcloth and soak it in warm water. Dry off your anus. Using a clean cotton towel, dry your anus well. Do not rub the area because this may make the hemorrhoid worse. Method 2. Read the package instructions. Instructions for use may vary by brand and product type, so it is important to read and follow the instructions.
It is important to be gentle as you wipe the hemorrhoid. Do not rub the area too hard or you may irritate the hemorrhoid. Do not push the wipe into the rectum.
Only use the pad on the outer part of your anus and anal region. After you have finished using the pad, throw it in the garbage or flush it down the toilet. Do not reuse the pads. Repeat the process six times daily. If you have another bowel movement during the day, repeat the cleaning and medicating process. Remember to clean the area gently. Observe the area for signs of improvement. If there is no improvement, then call your physician.
Method 3. Apply a small amount of cream to the outside of your anus. Make sure that you read the package instructions before using. Use an ice pack. Ice packs can help reduce the swelling associated with hemorrhoids. Just make sure that you do not use them for too long. Limit your use to five to 10 minutes at most each time. Wear cotton underwear. Wearing cotton underwear may help to ease discomfort by reducing moisture in your anal region. Avoid wearing any synthetic fabrics as these tend to accumulate more moisture.
Lie on your side. You may need to avoid sitting or lying on your backside until the hemorrhoid heals.
