I just gave birth 2wks ago and have a hemerrhoid. doing the sitz bath and hydrocortisone but what else can i do to help alleviate it? just wait?

Will subside soon: It is not uncommon to have painful hemorrhoids soon after giving birth , continue what you are doing , along with high fibre diet and use of stool softeners , ail these help you , will shrink in next few days , rarely need surgery , speak to your OB doctor who encounters this problem all the time.

If no pain also high: As long as you do not have pain and your bowel movements are regular and soft and you stay on a high fiber diet you can waiti.
