The worlds over millions of people are known to suffer form hemorrhoids or piles. Fortunately though, there are many treatment methods too that are available for treating the condition. External hemorrhoids are typically found around the opening of the anus and may be painful. They also make hygiene difficult. There are also cases in which a clot develops inside the hemorrhoid tissue, which is often the case after a period of constipation or diarrhea. Thanks to advances in modern medicine, there are many methods available to treat external hemorrhoids.
Doctors often recommend making certain changes to your diet and lifestyle, along with medication in order to treat external hemorrhoids. You should first of all try and prevent constipation from occurring for instance. You can do this by including lots of fiber content in your food. You can find fiber in large quantities in fruits and vegetables and including them in your diet is a sure shot way to avoid such problems in the first instance. In fact dietary changes are the first step to treat external hemorrhoids. Doctors would also give you a list of food items that you should not be taking too, as part of the treatment procedure.
Soaking in a shallow bath tub is often recommended for those suffering from external hemorrhoids. Plain warm water is recommended for such a treatment procedure. You can get such bath tubs in medical supply stores or even at most of the local pharmacies. The mild warmth of the water will help in reducing swelling and also provide relief from pain that is associated with piles. Applying an icepack on the affected area is also recommended by many physicians. You should always make it a point to consult your physician before you use any method to treat external hemorrhoids.
You can also find many over the counter creams and lotions these days which are used to treat external hemorrhoids. The ingredients in such creams are known to provide instant relief from swelling and pain that is associated with this condition. Most of them contain hydrocortisone or lidocaine as the major ingredient. Cleaning the affected area with witch hazel is also recommended for those who are suffering from this condition. In certain rare cases, based on the severity of the condition, doctors may also recommend surgery. Moderate exercise is another aspect that is always recommended along with dietary changes for those suffering from piles. You should also make it a point to drink plenty of water. A combination of all these aspects is used to treat this condition.
