My husband developed really bad hemorrhoid recently. We tried every remedy I'd find on earthclinic, but nothing seems to work. It lasted for almost a month!

One day I searched earthclinic again and noticed the posts for castor oil. I bought organic, food grade oil and he started using it. We were careful, applying a couple of drops each time, 3 times a day. It shrank the hemorrhoid greatly pretty fast, in a half of the day the pain was less and the size became much smaller, it worked like a miracle. In a day the shrank piece fell off. We were shocked!!! I talked to the doctor, she said that it is possible...Because that piece fell off he had some blood, we healed the wound with neosporin, just applied it several times a day. Finally our suffering stopped!!! After a very short time everything was over!

Has anyone used castor oil on an external thrombosed hemorrhoid? I've read several success stories about castor oil healing hemorrhoids, but it seems that the oil is to bring blood to the hemorrhoid so it will heal. A thrombosed hemorrhoid already has a blood clot in it. I'm concerned about bringing more blood to the area. Any experiences regarding this would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, I use castor oil, just a small amount rubbed on and it shrinks the hem. and takes away lots of the pain. Have used it for years and is my #1 thing to use.

Hi Kim

I have no experience with Caster oil for that issue but I found that using Frankincense Oil on any lump or bump once you apply 2-3 drops on the area they soon disappear and do not come back. It works for me.

God Bless

Hi,

Thanks for your response! But was it a thrombosed hemorrhoid? Or a “regular” hem?

It's been my experience that the body can use castor oil in many, many different ways and for many, MANY different jobs, as required. If it was me, I'd put a plastic garbage bag under the sheet, slap a castor oil soaked gauze pad on it when I went to bed and not worry about it - just let it do whatever it needs to do. If the body NEEDS to push it out through the skin due to the direct application of the castor oil, it might be messy but I'd just rinse off, slap another fresh castor oil soaked gauze pad on it and go back to bed - fully expecting that method of the body getting rid of something it doesn't want to be over and done with by morning. BUT - if the idea of some blood frightens you, you can simply use an ordinary castor oil pack over the liver area.

Progression of the issue will stop, either way, though a regular castor oil pack may take a week or more to resolve that particular issue if there are other things that also need to be done. Which there would almost certainly be but what's a week? It's practically no time at all. Plus, the worry would be gone due to progression being stopped so, take as much time as you need with it. Use a little or a lot, applied directly to the hem or systemically with an ordinary castor oil pack over the liver (I'd skip the heat).

There's no guarantee it wouldn't push it out through the skin, even with an ordinary oil pack but, if you're worried, simply roll a tablespoon of cayenne pepper into gauze to about the size of a teabag and leave it in the bathroom, "just in case". Apply that and go back to bed.

The main thing is to not worry about it. Worry/fear is modern medicine's biggest revenue stream and your body is THOUSANDS of times smarter than modern medicine.

You can buy reusable teabags now! They're sort of like brewing bags or aquarium filter bags. Fill some with cayenne, tie the end up and keep them in a mason jar in the freezer for emergencies!

And just FYI - castor oil doesn't "draw" things out. There are instances in which the body will PUSH things out through the skin, if need be and castor oil PENETRATES very deeply - deeper than the other oils - but it doesn't draw. Charcoal will draw toxins through the skin and even out of the blood to dispose of them via the digestive tract, epsom salt practically yanks foreign bodies out through the skin and clay has some drawing power as it dries - but not castor oil.
