Hemorrhoids: Hemorrhoids are like annoying acquaintances; they always seem to return. First, you must stay hydrated. At least 6-8 glasses of water daily. Add a stool softener as needed. Anusol cream is good for external hemorrhoids, suppositories for internal hemorrhoids at bedtime (keep them in the fridge-their easier to insert). Sitz baths using a few cups of epsom salts also helps.

Surgical: Several techniques are available, depending on size. Why did you get the? Pregnancies, constipation, poor diet, bad habits? Fix that if possible before any procedures.
