For healing and relieving itching......Witch Hazel on a cotton ball. Apply after each time you use the restroom. You can get Witch Hazel at most stores. It is really soothing and very healing. Does not burn.

The supplement rutin is great for hemorrhoid.

Magneium pills are a good idea, needs to be mag.oxide, and also take 2 or 3 stool softeners every night, these are very safe to be used long term.

      Having had minor surgery in that area, doc suggested witch hazel poured over a box of baby wipes - no scent.  Cut wipes in half.  Feels good and very clean - no pain.  But for me, it dried out that area too much and caused other issues...

Yes!! My colorectal surgeon mentioned this. I take Andrew Lessmans vein support which has it and other things to promote healthy circulation not just in the legs but that area too. 

 

I take magnesium at night about 500mg to help relax smooth muscle to help with easier bms. 

 

Lots tus of great support here for this delicate issue.
