A member asked:

Can i get a cream or something that can help curing external removed (by surgeon) hemorrhoids quick? how would i know if i need antibiotics creams for them?

Dr. Jalal Zuberi answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Call surgeon: Usually the surgeon would provide prescriptions after the rectal surgery, as well as on the recommended follow up after the procedure. In the meantime use the OTC meds for hemorrhoid pain relief.
