A member asked:
I am taking hemorrhoid medicine with lidocaine in it and i noticed i feel very hyper, eyes dilate, etc. is this safe? will it go away or get better?

Hemorrhoid cream: cintains Phenylephrine which is a decongestant that shrinks blood vessels. Dilated blood vessels can cause hemorrhoids. Phenylephrine rectal is used on the rectum to relieve itching, burning, irritation, and swelling caused by hemorrhoids. Side effect of Phenylepherine is dilated pupils, feeling of anxiety. It will go away when you stop using the ointment. Consult your surgeon for bettrr advise.
