How to Treat Your Piles

If you have piles, this informative article will explain to you the top 3 choices for when it comes to treat either external or internal piles.

Before continuing with this short article I want you to understand that having piles is extremely common and easy to treat in the first stages of the condition, so you've nothing to worry about. I’d also like to recommend you a visit to a medical expert so that he can prescribe some of the meds used in the treatments we are going to discuss.

It’s important that you understand that the treatments that I am going to share with you are not quick fixes. They are remedies that you should definitely try out but they’re not magical pills. To get rid of your piles you’ll have to eradicate some bad behaviors out of your lifestyle such as excessive exercise, a diet that leads to constant constipation, etc.

The most used exterior hemorrhoid treatment that you’ll be exposed to is creams. These topical solutions are gently applied in the affected area and have properties that will help alleviate the pain and other symptoms by relaxing your hemorrhoids, causing them to shrink.  Most people find these creams beneficial but their hemorrhoids tend to erupt back again once in awhile.

Note 1: There are a few non prescription creams available but I like to recommend you speak with a medical expert to find out what’s the best one for you.

When it comes to an interior hemorrhoid treatment solution, suppositories are often the first choice. These are used by people who suffer from internal hemorrhoids that usually don’t cause pain but can be detected if blood is found on the stools or toilet paper.

Note 2: If you found blood on those places you've to IMMEDIATELY check with your doctor as there’s also a possibility of being colon cancer.

After you insert the suppository in your anus, the suppository will increase the lubrication inside your anal cavity, preventing your hemorrhoids from rupturing during a bowel movement. Some people report positive results while others don’t get any beneficial symptoms so you’ll have to test this method yourself and see what it works for you.

The third piles treatment method I want to talk to you about is pills. These are basically drugs that will control the blood pressure on your body and tighten your veins tissue. Once your veins are stronger, your hemorrhoids will be less likely to bulge up again. Some of these pills have some nasty side effects so make sure you talk them out with your doctor.

If you have already tried all these methods with no success, you still have other options such as surgery and alternative treatments. The success of these treatments will vary from case to case and depend in the severity of your condition. Just make sure you try safer options before going into more drastic ones (unless you really have to).
