I have a really bad hemorrhoid. what's a quick way of getting rid of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No shortcuts: You must be examined to determine therapy. If severe, surgery is indicated. If moderate, the use of Rx crams ( Anusol HC), Proctofoam will help. I always suggest sitz baths 4x/day for 15 minutes: 1-2 lbs of Epsom salts in 4-6 inches of very warm ( not hot) water and soak your bottom as noted. In the end, you will need a rectal exam to check for internal and external hemorrhoids.
