What other things can i do about my hemorrhoid?

What have you done?: Answer depends on what you've done already, and whether you truly have "hemorrhoids." human have one word for pain at our butts: "hemorrhoids." but there are at least 20 different anorectal diseases that can occur. See your fp, GI doc, or a surgeon to (a) get the right diagnosis and (b) get the right treatment. If it is hemorrhoids, treatment is direct at symptoms. Good luck!

Sitz Bath: Agree w dr. Twynham. Sitz bathes can be helpful. Sit in a bathtub with enough warm water to submerge anal area. Soak for about 15 minutes – several times a day. There are a number of over-the-counter medications you can use for your anus to help with itching, burning & pain. Preparation h is one of the more well known products. Oral tylenol (acetaminophen) helps with discomfort. Severe pain - see physician!
