Miralax (polyethylene glycol): The first-line treatment for hemorrhoids is making the stool soft to stop the trauma and inflammation of the hemorrhoidal tissue. Miralax (polyethylene glycol) or generic versions work well for many people. You should see a surgeon for evaluation and for further treatment, especially if there is any associated bleeding.
