Yes.: Smoking and drinking may be harmful for other reasons, but will have no effect on your internal hemorrhoid. Add fiber to your diet, plenty of water, try otc hemorrhoid suppositories. If still symptomatic see colorectal surg to remove it.

Permission: To misbehave will not be a typical physician response, though neither alcohol or nicotine in limited amounts will worsen your hemorrhoids. But why not stop smoking altogether, and enjoy a cocktail, glass of wine or two, or even a couple of cold beers? Then go get your hemorrhoid issues dealt with. Best wishes!
