A member asked:
I have grade 2 internal hemorrhoids that bleed without pain. apart from taking fiber rich food, would doing kegels help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No, but medication can rx the problem. Kegel;s exercises will strengthen the pubococcygeal muscle and levator ani, but do nothing to rx the hemorrhoids.
