   These have all been reported to be effective – at least in some instances:

   * Fresh lime juice and olive oil. Mix equal two teaspoons of each and apply on effected area or else use a clean applicator which can be inserted.

   * Mix one teaspoon fresh mint leaves juice with one teaspoon of lemon juice & one tablespoon of honey. Take three times a day for relief.

   * Boil a mashed ripe banana in one teacup milk & take two to three times a day.

   * Liquid Blistex. It’s much more soothing & doesn’t feel greasy (it feels like it is burning for the first few seconds but then feel soothing & relaxing/ Works much faster than Preparation-H and doesn’t have the awful embarrassing smell.

   * Dried Figs. Wash two to three dried figs very well & soak in a glass of cold water overnight. Have it first thing in the morning. Similarly have figs in the evening that have been soaked in the morning. Have them for two to three weeks for good results. It is effective treatment for ordinary piles as well as bleeding piles.

   * Vitamin B6 tablets. This remedy works after just a day or two if your hemorrhoids come from a deficiency of this vitamin, which is often true

   * Red tomato. Slice a red tomato and place on hemorrhoids for about one hour. Repeat for several days as needed.

   * Vitamin E oil. Apply Vitamin E oil to affected area as often as needed for relief in as little as one day.

   * Witch Hazel cream. The tannins in witch hazel tighten the weak veins that trigger painful hemorrhoids. Apply witch hazel cream (be sure to buy the cream and not the clear liquid) three times daily.

   Seeing a doctor is always a good idea if the problem persists.

   You can put either apple cider vinegar or hamamelis cream [also known as witch hazel] on the area to help shrink swelling. Some people also find relief from hot/cold baths [5 minutes soaking in hot water, 10 seconds cold water]. Believe it or not another thing that people use to shrink swelling externally is the skin of a papaya.

   Things you can take internally to help include witch hazel tea, rosemary tea, two tablespoons of either olive or flaxseed oil and plenty of dietary fiber to help prevent straining during bowel movements.

   If you try the above things and things are not getting any better soon or if the problem has not disappeared within a month then you should see your physician. A naturopathic physician can prescribe an herbal tincture that will help.

   I would recommend that you see a doctor – either conventional or alternative although I stuck to my usual physician – but also suggest you undertake a comprehensive home regime. The only one I ever found that worked was at http://hemorrhoidsmedicine.org. This woman really knows her stuff, was a hemorrhoids sufferer and now has it under control. Check it out.
