Which medicine to take care of hemorrhoids is most effective?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Care of hemorrhoids: Medical therapies for hemorrhoids: bowel regimen (fiber, stool softeners, water, juice probiotics, magnesium laxatives to achieve 2 soft bowel movements daily), salves (prep h, desitin, (zinc oxide diaper cream) anti fungals), and hygiene (shower, hair dryer area daily). If medical therapy fails to control hemorrhoids, then ask for surgical referral. There are several safe surgical procedures.
