00:00Hemorrhoids are swollen blood vessels in the lower rectum, and they are probably the most
00:04common cause of anorectal pain and bleeding. Here are some effective natural treatments for
00:09hemorrhoids you can practice at home. Before starting, it is important to know that individual
00:15response to these methods may be highly variable and some hemorrhoids, especially grade 4,
00:21will require medical and surgical management. Therefore, it is best to take advice from your
00:26healthcare provider to choose what method is best for you. Number 1. Fiber-Rich Diet
00:31A fiber-rich diet can help relieve the symptoms of hemorrhoids in several ways.
00:37Fiber absorbs water in the digestive tract, making stools softer and bulkier. Soft stools are easier
00:43to pass, reducing the need to strain during bowel movements. In addition, it reduces the gut transit
00:49time, which prevents irritation associated with bowel movements. Consuming adequate fiber helps
00:55promote regular bowel movements, which can prevent constipation and straining, which are risk factors
01:01for hemorrhoids. Moreover, fiber plays a crucial role in maintaining overall digestive health.
01:07It supports the growth of beneficial bacteria in the colon, reduces the calorie intake and aids in
01:13weight loss, reduces the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and colorectal cancer. Examples of fiber-rich
01:20foods include whole grains such as oatmeal, brown rice, barley, and wheat bran. Fruits such as apples,
01:27berries, piers, and apricots. Vegetables. Legumes. Nuts and seeds.
01:33Number 2. Drink Plenty of Water
01:35Adequate hydration is essential for maintaining soft and bulky stools.
01:41Drinking enough water can help prevent dehydration and promote regular bowel movements,
01:45reducing the likelihood of constipation. Proper hydration supports overall tissue health and
01:51healing. Drinking enough water ensures adequate blood flow to the rectal area, facilitating the
01:57repair of damaged tissues and reducing inflammation associated with hemorrhoids.
02:02Number 3. Sits Bats
02:03Sits Bats are a common and effective natural remedy for alleviating the symptoms of hemorrhoids.
02:10A sits bath involves soaking the lower part of the body, particularly the buttocks and hips,
02:15in warm water. The water temperature should be comfortably warm, but not too hot, to avoid
02:21scalding or discomfort. You can test the water temperature with your hand before immersing
02:26yourself. Sit in the sits bath for about 10 to 15 minutes at a time. You can repeat the sits bath
02:32several times throughout the day, especially after bowel movements or whenever you experience discomfort
02:38from hemorrhoids. The warm water helps soothe the affected area, reducing pain, itching,
02:44and discomfort associated with hemorrhoids. Immersion in warm water can help reduce inflammation
02:49and swelling of the hemorrhoidal tissues, promoting healing. Sits baths can also help
02:55cleanse the anal area and improve hygiene, particularly after bowel movements when thorough cleaning may
03:01be challenging or painful. The warm water relaxes the muscles in the pelvic area, reducing tension and
03:07promoting relaxation, which can alleviate discomfort from hemorrhoids. Sits baths are generally safe and
03:14well-tolerated, but it's essential to follow proper hygiene practices and avoid using water
03:19that is too hot to prevent burns or irritation. Number four, topical applications. There are several
03:26topical treatments available over-the-counter for hemorrhoids, which can provide relief from symptoms
03:31such as itching, pain, and inflammation. Hemorrhoid creams or ointments contain active ingredients such
03:38as hydrocortisone, phenylephrine, or promoxene, which help reduce itching, pain, and inflammation
03:45associated with hemorrhoids. They may also contain soothing agents like witch hazel or aloe vera.
03:51Hemorrhoid creams are applied directly to the affected area and can provide temporary relief.
03:56Pre-moistened wipes or pads containing witch hazel or other soothing ingredients can be used to cleanse
04:03the anal area and provide relief from itching and irritation. They are convenient for use after
04:09bowel movements and can be disposed after using. Hemorrhoid suppositories are inserted into the rectum
04:15and are designed to dissolve and release medication to provide relief from internal hemorrhoid symptoms
04:20such as pain and inflammation. They may contain ingredients such as hydrocortisone,
04:26cocoa butter, or shark liver oil. Moreover, some people prefer to use natural remedies such as aloe vera
04:34gel, coconut oil, or apple cider vinegar topically to provide relief from hemorrhoid symptoms.
04:40While evidence supporting the efficacy of these remedies is limited, they may offer some relief
04:45from mild symptoms. Number 5. Ice packs. Ice packs can provide relief from the symptoms of hemorrhoids
04:52by helping to reduce swelling, inflammation, and discomfort in the affected area. When applied to
04:58the skin, ice packs cause vasoconstriction, which reduces blood flow to the affected area,
05:04helping to decrease swelling and inflammation associated with hemorrhoids. Ice packs can numb
05:10the nerves in the affected area, providing temporary relief from pain and discomfort. The cold temperature
05:16of ice packs has a soothing effect on the skin, providing relief from irritation and discomfort
05:21associated with hemorrhoids. Number 6. Regular exercising. Regular physical activity, such as brisk
05:29walking, jogging, or cycling, can help stimulate bowel movements and promote regularity. Exercise helps
05:36strengthen the muscles of the pelvic floor and abdominal wall, making it easier to pass stools without
05:41straining. Maintaining a healthy weight through regular exercise can help reduce pressure on the
05:47veins in the rectal area, decreasing the risk of hemorrhoid development or exacerbation of existing
05:52symptoms. Exercise is known to reduce stress levels and promote relaxation, which can have a positive
05:59impact on digestive health and bowel function. High levels of stress and anxiety can contribute to
06:05digestive disturbances, including constipation and diarrhea, which can exacerbate hemorrhoid symptoms.
06:11By reducing stress, exercise may help alleviate these symptoms and improve overall well-being.
06:18Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise most days of the week.
06:24Incorporate strength training exercises targeting the abdominal and pelvic floor muscles into your
06:29routine. Choose activities that you enjoy and can stick with long-term, whether it's walking, swimming,
06:36yoga, or cycling. Stay hydrated before, during, and after exercise to help prevent constipation and maintain bowl
06:44regularity.
