Hemorrhoids blood: Generally prescribed medications provide specific direction on how to use them and for how long. You may have been provided an over the counter product which frankly is used for as long as needed. Ensure you follow the guidance provided by your physician and don't assume that you could stop simply because you no longer see blood. Eating a healthy diet rich in veggies, squatting during BM's can help
