Effective Hemorrhoids Treatment

Here are some ways to treat hemorrhoids naturally:

Diet for avoiding constipation

Constipation is the root cause for the hemorrhoids. Hence, it is essential that your diet contains high fiber making the stools bulky and soft to prevent constipation. Fibrous items in your diet could include beans, cabbage, sprouts, carrots, vegetables and fruits, whole grains and bran cereals. You can avoid development of hemorrhoids by avoiding non-fibrous foods like sugar, wheat, ice cream, cheese, processed foods and meat.

In order to strengthen the arteries in the rectum and prevent hemorrhoids from worsening, it is essential to consume more fruits and vegetables. This is mainly because the chemicals important for strengthening the blood vessels walls – Anthocyanidins and Pythochemicals – exist in the vegetables and fruits.

Drink lots of water

Constipation is the main cause for hemorrhoids and can be controlled by drinking plenty of water every day. Intake of alcohol chili peppers will aggravate the hemorrhoids.

Anti-itch diet

It is advisable to reduce the acid levels in the stools to prevent itching of hemorrhoids. To facilitate this, you must avoid food items such as beer, wine, soda, citrus fruits and other acidic juices. Coffee as well as caffeinated products will cause flatulence, reduction in the anal sphincter pressure and increase in sensitivity of the anal skin.

Medications, dietary supplements and medicines

Herbal teas not only increase your metabolism but also help in getting rid of toxins in the body thereby strengthening the arteries. Some of the herbal items are barberry, neem, butcher's broom, horse chestnut extract, Psyllium, Slippery Elm, White Oak Bark, and Witch Hazel. Herbs can also be applied externally on the affected areas. Aloe Vera gel is the most popular item for this application and it gives cooling and soothing effect.

Sitz bath

In order to improve the blood circulation and reduce the swelling and pain in the affected areas, you can take Sitz bath wherein you will sit in warm water covering hips and buttocks. This natural treatment for hemorrhoids is commonly used.

Breathing exercise

Lie down flat on your back, take a deep breath moving your belly up and then breathe out lifting the anus. Practice this twice a day for 15 minutes each time.

The blood circulation increases with proper exercise and this improves the bowel movement preventing hemorrhoids development. Obesity causes hemorrhoids development and you can prevent this by regular workouts.
