Treatment of Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoids are a problem that is far more prevalent than many people realize, and many people with symptoms of hemorrhoids may not even know that they have them. It's a sad truth that solid, factual information about the issue can be difficult to come across, and there is no shortage of misleading information out there. Below, we discuss the symptoms of hemorrhoids and signs that you should look out for.

Itching and pain in the rectum are two common symptoms of hemorrhoids, as is bleeding during or after a bowel movement. Pain is more common in the case of external hemorrhoids. This condition involves the formation of a painful lump of inflamed, blood-filled tissue at or near the rectal opening. This lump is known as a thrombosed or clotted hemorrhoid. This type of hemorrhoid commonly results in straining to pass stools and bleeding during or after a bowel movement.

Internal hemorrhoids are another common problem. They may also be accompanied by bleeding, and large internal hemorrhoids often result in an itching sensation due to the mucus they secrete. If they bulge into the large intestine, they can also cause a sensation of fullness or the urge to have a bowel movement. The larger the hemorrhoid, the more uncomfortable it is likely to be.

Internal hemorrhoids cause pain far less frequently than external ones. But, if a large, internal hemorrhoid protrudes into the anus and the blood flow is cut off by the anal sphincter muscle, you may experience severe pain. This is called a strangulated hemorrhoid. If this happens, don't ignore this important warning sign; it is imperative that you get medical help. Don't put this off even if your condition embarrasses you - remember that your health is at stake!

How do you apply ice for treatment of hemorrhoids (gross sorry!)?
I have suspected I've had IBS for over year. I've talked about this with my OB GYN and I plan to see her again this coming week. Anyway, I just had an upset stomach episode which is common with IBS. I had a lot of cramping, pain in the stomach and well you get the idea. Anyway, after wiping myself I saw some blood. I know it is from hemorrhoids since I've had them since my first child. I have seen blood before but this time it was kind of dripping some into the pot. I used a Preparation H suppository like I have in the past which always helps.But after reading some online about this a lot of sites suggested using ICE to help shrink the bleeding hemorrhoid or sitting in a warm bath. I am wondering about the ice though. How would you apply that? lol & yes I will see a Dr. this coming week about this.Link to treatment page uspharmacist.com oldformat.asp?url newlook files feat acf2f25.htm
