Ingest more water and fiber

Constipation is the biggest cause of hemorrhoids. Therefore, in order to prevent and treat constipation, you must drink more water and Eat more fiber-rich foods (see Treatments for Constipation). Cereals such as apples, beets, Brazilian stone fruits, broccoli, cabbage vegetables, carrots, mung beans, guar, emperor beans, pears, peas, psyllium and whole wheat are all good choices.

Lubricate the anus

Once you increase your fiber and water intake, your stool will become softer and easier to pass. You can also apply some Vaseline inside the anus to further facilitate smooth bowel movements and reduce pain. Dip some Vaseline into a cotton swab or finger and apply it half an inch inside the anus.

Don’t sit on the toilet for too long

It is best not to sit on the toilet for more than 5 minutes at a time, especially not to read while sitting on the toilet. This is an extremely unhygienic habit.

Clean up

When you have finished having a bowel movement, your responsibility is not over yet. It is important to gently clean the anus. Some toilet paper is rough and some contains harsh chemicals. Five-color (white), odorless toilet paper should be used. It is best to install a bidet at home.

Don’t sit still for a long time

Don't sit still for hours on end, but even if you must, get up and move around for at least 5 minutes every hour.

Don’t lift heavy objects

Lifting heavy objects or performing strenuous movements is like exerting too much force when defecating. If you are prone to hemorrhoids, you should avoid exerting excessive force.

Do not scratch the affected area

The affected area may be itchy, but do not scratch to relieve the discomfort, as this will damage the fragile vein walls of the rectum and make the situation worse.

Take a warm bath

Soaking your buttocks in warm water may be the best way to treat it. Warm water promotes blood circulation in the affected area, helps shrink the swollen veins there, and relieves pain.

Using Medications

There are various creams and suppositories on the market specifically designed to treat hemorrhoids. Although, these medications usually won't make your problem go away, they are mostly topical analgesics, but they can relieve some discomfort. Do not use ibuprofen or aspirin for pain relief; they can worsen bleeding.

Control your weight

People who are overweight are more likely to develop hemorrhoids because their lower limbs bear greater pressure. As a result, they are also more likely to develop varicose veins.

Push in with your hands

Sometimes, hemorrhoids refer to the lining of the anus protruding outward rather than enlarged veins. If you have protruding hemorrhoids like this, try pushing them back into the anus. Hemorrhoids that hang out can easily develop into blood clots.

Sit on a circle-shaped sleeping pillow

This kind of hollow cushion is very suitable for people who need to sit for long periods of time, especially when you have hemorrhoids.

How to prevent and treat hemorrhoids during pregnancy

Pregnant women are especially prone to hemorrhoids, in part because the uterus is located just above the blood vessels that communicate with the anal veins (impeding blood flow). If you are pregnant, the way to treat hemorrhoids is to lie on your left side for about 20 minutes every 4-6 hours. This reduces the pressure on important blood vessels from the weight of your lower body.
