Try flavored water: The best way to deal with hemorrhoids is to drink plenty of water and take in plenty of fiber. You may drink flavored water if that helps. Other drinks like tea, coffee, energy drinks don't help because they make you urinate and you lose water. Same with alcohol. If the hemorrhoids continue to bother you, consider surgery.

Hemorrhoids: Fluids and a good diet are important. There are OTC drugs for local pain control but you need to see a GI doctor to help you treat them
