Knowing how to get rid of hemorrhoids can be confusing because there are so many products out there, each of which addresses a different aspect of hemorrhoids all together. The good news is, there are many safe and natural remedies for external hemorrhoid treatment that you can easily do at home without having to fork out too much money or undergo surgery for.

The most important step is to acknowledge why and how you contracted hemorrhoids in the first place. The main cause of hemorrhoids due to swollen blood vessels. Are you constantly constipated? Does your diet lack fiber? Are you under constant stress? All of these are potential causes of hemorrhoids. Try changing up your diet first. Eat more fruits and vegetables to increase your fiber intake (be sure to check out those FiberOne bars) Why fiber? Because it helps promote smoother bowl movements. The smoother your stool, the less irritating it is on your hemorrhoids when passing through. Limit your carbohydrate intake because excessive carbs will put even more strain on your hemorrhoid, so be sure to mix it up with protein and veggies. Drink plenty of water to complement your fiber intake. Consume more citrus, such as oranges, which are high in bioflavonoids and helps build stronger blood vessels. Avoid eating excessive cheese because it contains lactic acid which worsens the condition. If you feel it is too difficult to follow these dietary guidelines, be sure to check out fiber supplements available over the counter.

Get in the habit of developing an exercise routine. It doesn’t need to be something that will disrupt your regular schedule, but make sure you’re consistent. Listen to your body. Eat well, but not to the point where you’re bloated from food and about to fall asleep. Instead of eating large portions three times a day, try eating smaller portions for those three meals and throwing in some snacks and fruits in between. You probably might have heard that from somewhere before, but it works. By doing this, your body’s metabolism is speeding up and allowing you to digest your foods more quickly and efficiently- thus causing less strain on the blood vessels in your rectum. This will not only relieve your hemorrhoid, but it will also lead you to a healthier lifestyle.

Sitz baths are also excellent for external use in relieving the itch. You can also use over the counter hemorrhoid creams to relieve swelling or get rid of them all together.

Even though surgical methods or injections can remove hemorrhoids, you run certain risks, not to mention it could be highly expensive. Talk to your doctor about your hemorrhoids before making any decisions, even if surgery is inevitable. The methods mentioned above are effective forms of external hemorrhoids treatment and will work effectively for reducing the swelling of hemorrhoids, on top of eliminating them naturally as long as the problem isn’t severe.
