A member asked:

How long do external hemorrhoids last for? i have one that developed from chemo vomiting, i guess pelvic pressure. but it remains a few days later. it deflates overnight but as soon as i pee in the morning it swells back up?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hemorrhoids are swollen veins outside the anus.are cause pain, rectal bleeding,itching and worsening with increased abdominal pressure. You can apply witch hazel, hydrocortisone or lidocaine to the affected area. Drink more water, take 20-35 gems of fiber per day. Soak in a warm bath for 10-20 min, can take laxatives. Use lotion on toilet paper to wipe gently. Hope it will help you heal faster.
