I am amazed how effective the use of the garlic eased the swelling of my hemmroids. I had no bleeding prior to the use. The ointment preparation H was not proving to be as effective as advertised. It was the garlic in conjunction with the ointment I noticed and felt a significant change.

I am Dr. Prabhu, registered dental practitioner, practising dentistry..very interested in natural healing. My journey started years back after being afflicted by psoriasis, an auto immune condition where modern medicine doesn't have a proper solution.

During my journey of healing psoriasis, I experienced hemorrhoids, whenever I went to the bathroom, a bulge of tissue pops out and when I push it with fingers it goes inside, at one stage it didn't go and was permanently sticking out with difficulty sitting down and causing pain..when I searched for natural remedies I came across the use of garlic suppositories for hemorrhoids, hesitant at first I thought I would give it a try. I cut the garlic in a few places to activate the allicin and kept it inside my anal opening, I also smashed some garlic and placed in a piece of gauze soaked in coconut oil and used it as a topical application on my external lesion. The first time my experience made me tremble, as it was stinging terribly..but my determination kept me going, after doing this for 10 days I was totally free. I could see the improvement from the third day.

I was amazed by the magic effect of garlic.

Medium sized clove, peeled, shaped, sliced lightly to release garlic oils, coat with oil, insert. and usually next day's bm out it comes. It works wonders for me, and have had good reviews from other persons I have shared this with. I am a colon cancer survivor, and a recent colonoscopy showed internal and external hemorrhoids. Back to garlic, externals reduced significantly after 2 treatments 1 week apart. I am 79, and this fix I got from an old remedy book my mother had years ago.

I have been using raw garlic as suppositories for 2 days now, today is the 3rd day, because I have piles that has lasted since year 2000 which caused very frequent stooling and I urinate so much. In sincerity, I have noticed some great and drastic changes, I peel the garlic and add some sprinkles of olive oil as lubricant for easy passage, after every insertion which I do every morning, I don't stool or urinate until the next day. I don't urinate at night anymore, in just 2 days. I will continue doing this consistently for a month and see what magic powers it will bring forth some more. I am grateful to nature and to God for the discovery. I am on my way to total healing.

I have struggled with fissures and piles for 3 years. Tried everything from ACV to sitz baths, honey. Here's what finally helped me. I still have flare ups when I become lazy and stop sticking to these routines. I remember being in the depths of despair.

Good toileting habits
Sitting with feet elevated on the toilet.
Not pushing and rushing just allowing nature to take its course
Using water to cleanse and wash instead of tissue

Garlic depositories
Using raw garlic for a week. These helped massively.

Garlic capsules purchased from holland and barrets. I would squeeze out the oil and cover the entire region (inside and out) sounds gross but you need to heal from inside and out.

You practice the raw garlic depositories and the capsules to keep ontop. You should be cured within a month if you follow the above.

Sitz baths are good, I recommend.
Take care of your diet - diarrhoea or constipation cause remission.
Send healing energy to that place.
Try not to stress.

Can't remember the post re garlic for hemorrhoids I'm on my wits end when I have flare ups about 4 yrs ago so followed her recommendation, 2-3 cloves of garlics grounded in pestles add evoo rolled in Saran wrap freeze it overnight, insert half of it cleans hands of course. Warnings! It burns like hell! In about 5 min. Repeat again before bed. Can't remember how many days? But to this day no more flare ups.

I had one hell of an episode a year or two ago with both internal and external piles, and tried the garlic treatment, cutting slits in a clove and shoving it up the pipe. Was very difficult finding the entrance (or exit), but managed to get it done. The first time it stung like hell, but I bit the bullet and kept it in there. After a few days, the external piles were gone, and haven’t returned either. Unfortunately I still have the prolapsed piles though. They don’t hurt, but are messy and will itch and burn if I don’t keep myself clean. I wash after every bowel movement, but if I’m working hunched over or bending during the course of the day I have to stop and wash periodically. It’s not painful, but it is embarrassing, and of course, any form of intimate relationship has been kicked to the curb.

Thanks so much for the post!!! The garlic poultice was the missing link for me. I've tried garlic suppositories before but they end up too far in the rectum to effect the hemorrhoids. As a note, I've found it easier to hold a longish clove of garlic in the anus sphincter rather than apply a poultice to my prolapsed hemms. Make sure to work over the clove with a fork and let sit for ten minutes before use to get the allicin converted. After just two days I'm finally seeing some relief/shrinkage.

Greetings.

An intro about myself, I am a board certified dental surgeon. Very interested in natural healing.

I was psoriatic for the past 20years, and through research healed myself through dietary changes and through supplements (multivitamin, fish oil capsules, EPA+DHA, EFA, Bone mineral formulas, Vitamin C, and magnesium)

I had internal haemorrhoids for the past 5 years, and after I started taking supplements it vanished, but last month symptoms started again, and it usually comes out during defecation and it could be reduced with finger pressure, that went on for a few months and all of a sudden I had a bigger prolapse and it couldn't be reduced. I consulted a general surgeon, who told me it was a grade 4 internal haemorrhoid and it needs surgical removal. I was not interested, opened you tube to hear many testimonials about garlic suppositories for healing haemorrhoids, as I believed in natural healing, but still being trained in conventional medicine did not have complete faith in it and decided to try it half heartedly-

NOTE: I never had constipation, because I usually eat natural diet rich in fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. I also drink sufficient water, never take milk and it's products, and never eat processed foods.

I placed a single clove of garlic as a suppositorie for ten days, ate 3 cloves of raw garlic every night, also placed garlic as a poultice (crushed garlic) with coconut oil in a gauze directly on the popped out haemorrhoid lesion. And sometimes aloe Vera gel as a poultice. I couldn't believe myself, 10days- my symptoms vanished and haemorrhoids completely gone! Amazing, what a miracle.
