A member asked:

I have a huge external hemroid, otc med not working. is there a prescription my dr can call in for me, internal or external?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Best option: is drainage of clots accumulated under anal skin to get immediate relief from pain , rather than waiting to resolve by itself in few days . See your doctor
