Cure Hemorrhoids Naturally

Updated: 11/10/2008




CAYENNE PEPPER

2 YEA   

[YEA]  03/25/2008: Mario from Davao City, Philippines writes: "Hemorrhoids or piles is something genetic in our family. My paternal grandmother had it, my father, my uncles and aunts, all then of them, had it. In family reunions, hemorrhoids was an intimate, humorous conversation piece among them. Years later, eight of us brothers and sisters would have it too. Two of my brothers underwent painful operations to remove their hemorrhoids. I thought, soon I'd be going through the same ordeal too as I was already bleeding everytime I do my morning rituals. That's when I read about cayenne pepper. I took 3 capsules with meals everyday for three months in 2002. Miracle of miracles, my hemorrhoids disappeared...vanished without a trace. For five years now. I only stopped taking it when I was diagnosed for hyperthyroid. After getting into this website, I think I'll go back to taking cayenne pepper again especially because I am hypertensive and has a high cholesterol nowadays. Will get in touch again after a few weeks. Thanks for a very helpful and inspiring forum like this."

COCONUT OIL

3 YEA   

[YEA]  01/07/2006: Maria from Valdosta, GA writes: "After having a baby, I had horrible hemorrhoids. Certain underwear was out of the question, but it usually took me a day to figure that out! After one episode that left me in pain every time I sat down, I found this web-site and chose the coconut oil remedy. I added an extra step--first, I clean the area with a cotton ball soaked in Witch Hazel. Generous amounts of coconut oil followed, and I did this about 3 times a day--basically every morning/night and after each bathroom trip. After 3 days the pain was completely gone, and after a week and a half I can no longer see visible outer hemorrhoids. I continue the treatment everyday, just not as often, and I'm hoping to wear that sexy outfit for Valentine's! Thank you so much for the advice!"

[YEA]  Carol from Baton Rouge, Lousiana writes: "When I was bleeding going to the bathroom it was bright red. I spoke with my Dr. and he told me bright red means there are hemorrhoids inside the rectum and the fesses is hard and scratching. If it were cancer the blood would be dark or brownish red. I read that coconut oil was great for hemorrhoids so I used it and guess what I have had no problems in over a year. Remember no double dipping."

[YEA]  Terri from Carlisle, PA writes: "I am a nurse's aide and I have used coconut oil on some of my patients hemorrhoids, some so large the patient could not sit down without pain. After using for about 6 months the hemorrhoids have completely gone. Applied externally 2x's a day or after each bowel movement and bath. For sanitary reasons, each person had their own separate bottle for their rectum area only. (no double dipping!!)"

DIETARY ADVICE

1 YEA   

[YEA]   Janie from Australia writes: "Absolutely avoid spicy food and chocolate when you have hemorrhoids. They probably caused the hemorrhoids in the first place!"


06/05/2008: Joyce from Joelton, Tn replies: "May I point out that "piles" (hemorrhoids) are not in the liver, but in the rectal area, and that chronic constipation is one of the more common causes of hemorrhoids. The best way to correct constipation is through increasing fiber and fluid intake. Begin increasing your fiber intake by switching to whole grain breads and increasing the dark green leafy vegetables in your foods eaten. When your liver gets clogged or stops producing bile, you'll know that by your stools become more clay colored and you become jaundiced."


06/05/2008: Ken from Santa, CA replies: "Constipation Remedies: i believe that overdoing 'rich' food like chocolate clogs the liver and this is a cause of piles."

DIETARY SUGGESTIONS

1 YEA   

[YEA]  02/13/2008: Rachi from Los Angeles, CA writes: "I have hemorrhoids for about year and had to face the worst when I traveled to my home country which required a 22 hr air journey. I used all the tricks in the bag - from using coconut oil to taking metamucil ( fiber ) - Finally following has worked for me and I would like to share this as this can be of help to many others :

Fundamental to curing or at least' getting a temporary relief is to thin your stool /feces and at the same time not to have constipation.This needs eating /drinking following and avoiding regular food.


Morning I would start my day with drinking a glass of water and then Papaya ( eating about a lb ) - Just peel it , remove seeds and cut into small pieces and eat - simple.

Next I would eat some  raisin bran in milk  ( post make ) - try not to eat all the raisins.just avoid some of them if not all. Have a glass of water again


This is your breakfast -  if you feel hungry in between - have some more 
of the same stuff.

Be sure to drink at least
2-3 glasses of water in between. this is very important

Lunch - Lightly fried mixed vegetables - about a bowl and have V8 Veg soup - hot - and Water again.

Have some Figs ( sunmaid  ) 3-4 inbetween whenever you feel hungry in between - follow everything you eat with water - you need to drink atleast 8-10 glasses of water


repeat the same stuff for your dinner as well - Green vegies - boiled or fried in oil are good - snap peas , softs pears , no carrots , no juices absolutely no hard food. anything you feel hard is not good -

As I said - Water is the key and also do not sit on chair - you may be either lying down on bed or walking - but absolutely no chair / sofa

This will give you slurry kind of feces next day and you 'll be surprised to see the results in 2 days flat - atleast it worked for me  when nothing was working for past 40 days and I was about to give in for sigmoidoscopy to check the extent of damage and subsequent surgery

Good Luck and remember in short >>>>  lots of water papya raisin bran ( post make ) soft veggies can put you back on your feet."

ESSENTIAL OILS

1 YEA   

[YEA]  05/31/2008: Kim from Hagerstown, Maryland writes: "I started asking about hemorrhoid remedies while pregnant with my fifth child. During the previous pregnancy (and especially after deliver) I had horrible, painful hemorrhoids.

A friend suggested the following:
1 small (2oz.) tube of KY jelly, squeezed into another container - mix in 5 drops of cypress essential oil and 15 drops of geranium cypress oil and mix very well. Apply liberally as needed.

I'll say that it does "tingle" but I wouldn't go so far as to say it burns. It provides almost instant relief and my hemorrhoids have remained very mild this time around!

Oh - one other thing that did work great for me was straight ICE PACKS - nothing else. But not as convenient as the essential oil mixture!"

FIBER AND BANANA

1 YEA   

[YEA]  03/10/2007: Sara from Des Moines, Iowa writes: "I didn't get hemorrhoids until after giving birth and I suffer terribly from them. I have yet to find a great cure but will try some of these things. I have found though that having a tsp of fiber powder (not the pills...they don't work) in the morning and at night and eating a banana once a day makes your stool soft, and I can still eat meat and all that stuff your not supposed to. Makes all things come out a lot easier but you have to take your time going. I'm not cured..they come back when I forget to take the fiber but it is a relief and allows you to eat the things you want for the most part..at least for me."

FIBER CAPSULES

1 YEA   

[YEA]  10/26/2008: William from Cleveland, OH writes: "I have protruding hems that flare up after using the restroom. I tried ACV and Witch Hazel but got no relieve. Did receive partial relieve by drinking cranberry juice with ginger added to it. However, have now found total relieve by taking fiber capsules (no not Metamucel). I found them at the Health/Nutrition store. The brand is Yerba Prima and each capsule is 625 mg. I take 2 3 times a day (along with each meal) and drink at least 8 oz. of some type of liquid. I've had this problem for at least 12 years and I'm overjoyed."

HORSE CHESTNUT

1 YEA   

[YEA]  02/19/2007: Dennis (brownfarms@pldi.net) from Marshall, OK writes: "I read on internet that taking horse chestnut orally will cure hemorrhoids, so I'm taking that right now and I think that it's working. Horse chestnut is also good for chronic venous insufficiency or swelling of the legs which was the main reason I was taking it in the first place. The swelling in my left leg is slowly subsiding but I think it's working for that also. Horse chestnut is good for also coughs, arthritis, and some other things I can't remember at this time.Pycnogenol is suppose to be better for hemorrhoids than horse chestnut, but I don't know, I'm just trying the horse chestnut for now, and if I'm not satisfied with the results, I will try pycnogenol instead, in which it's supposed to work better for leg swelling"

HOT BATHS

1 YEA   

[YEA]  04/21/2006: Kayla from LaPine Oregon writes: "I have had hemorrhoids for a few years. When I first started getting irritation it was just itching. Now that I had my baby (5 weeks ago), I get pain too. It can be unbearable. I like to soak in a hot bath it makes it go away for a while. Also if you wear sweats it helps. Something loose and baggy. Jeans make it worse. My Dr. also says to drink lots of fluids and eat more fiber. If it is a continual thing use stool softeners. I enjoy the Bath it goes away the whole time in the tub and it is also good me time!"

HOT SHOWER, VASELINE

1 YEA   

[YEA]  12/15/2007: chris from akron, ohio writes: "Since giving birth to 3 childern, I have occasionally suffered from very painful hemorrhiods. The best relief that works for me is a very warm shower with a detachable shower head that you can aim the flow directly on the hemorrhoids. This works better that soaking in a bath because the bath water cools down too quickly. After the shower be sure to dry thoroughly, even with a hair dryer. Then apply some vaseline or any petroleum  jelly (unscented) on the area. This is best done at night just before bedtime when  you can lie down and be off you feet.  Hope it helps for you."

JEWELWEED AND ETHYL ALCOHOL

[YEA]  01/29/2007: Sal from East Haven, CT writes: "I discovered that fresh Jewelweed stopped the itching in one application so for winter I made a tincture of jewelweed and ethyl alcohol 2:1. This worked well better than the raw plant and it is also an anti pruritic better than cortisone."

LECITHIN

2 YEA   

[YEA]  08/07/2008: Sara from Miami, Florida writes: "I read in a book that lecithin 1200 helps with hemorrhoids. I was desperate and depress so I gave it a shot. I worked wonderfully. After two days it shrunk 90% and no pain whatsoever. You can buy Lecithin 1200 in any Walgreens or CVS. I have to say, though, that the doses in the package says 1 capsula per day (you know as a dietary supplement) but I had 2 capsulas every four hours. Everytime I noticed that I was going to have an episode I had Lecithin 1200 for a day and It was gone.

PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO TAKE LECITHIN IF YOU ARE PREGNANT OR NURSING. (At least it is what I read reserching in the web)"

LISTERINE GOLD

1 YEA   

[YEA]  C from PDL, USA writes: "For about 10 years I have used this remedy, but I have noticed I needed it less and less as time went by, To shrink your hemorrhoids, take a cotton ball, soak it in Listerine Gold or a no brand of Listerine Gold, it has to be the Gold to work good and while in the shower, before you take your shower put the soaked cotton ball on the hemorrhoids, it will sting for a few seconds then totally shrink down, then you just rinse off while you take your shower, works like a charm"

OLIVE OIL

1 YEA   

[YEA]  09/24/2008: Bonnie from Stroud, Gloucestershire writes: "I was ready a book on weird and wacky cures but using natural stuff to heal everything and I came across using olive oil for hemorroids. As I had suffered with these and had an operation that failed to help, I decided to try it and it works, I started bleeding one day from behind an decided to use the olive oil and it stopped. The way I do it is soak a tissue in it place it on the area then place a polythene bag over that and then some pants that you are not too fond of and leave in place as long as possible. I have not had any trouble since that day.

I must say i am hooked on your site now and they all seem to work. I have been using using many of your skin remedies and i am glowing.ten years younger at least."

OTC

1 YEA   

[YEA]  07/09/2008: Rebecca from Ft. Myers, FL writes: "This may not be a natural remedy, but it works for me when I am having extremely painful hemorroids. Pain has been so bad that I can't sleep at night, so besides using all the topical applications - like ACV - I tried something new. Before bed, I took a two DOANS pills which are muscle relaxers and an ibuprofen. The muscle relaxer helps to relax the muscle in the anus which in turn puts less pressure on the hemorroids. Worked like a charm for me and allowed me to sleep. This is not always good for daytime pain though because the muscle relaxers will relax you all over!"

PREPARATION H WITH ESSENTIAL OILS

1 YEA   

[YEA]  09/18/2008: T. in Los Angeles from Los Angeles, USA writes: "I am trying Preparation H mixed with 3 drops Lavender oil and 2 drops Eucalyptus oil. It tingles but it helps disinfect and heal skin tissue. I also have been using suppositories. I have been using Lavender oil for the last ten years on scrapes, pimples and small cuts. Amazingly my skin doesn't scar when I use it for 3 times a day for 5 or 6 days!

BTW, ACV with garlic diluted in water is an excellent way to clear out bacteria and viruses in the colon as an enema. You will need to replace good bacteria with probiotic yogurt or friendly flora supplements."
