<bot>: Thanks for asking Chat Doctor. Hemorrhoids occur when the veins of the rectum or anus become inflamed because of too much straining in the area. I would suggest:1. Take NSAID like ibuprofen and paracetamol for pain.2. Apply ice several times a day for 10 minutes at a time. Follow this by placing a warm compress on the anal area for another 10 to 20 minutes.3. Take a site bath. Fill your bathtub with just enough warm water to cover the anal area. Do this several times a day, especially after you have had a bowel movement. Soak for about 15 minutes at a time. Be careful! If the water is too warm, it can burn you.4. Eat enough of Salads and fruits along with laxative syrups if needed and avoid straining. If you still feel no relief, you should visit your doctor and get yourself examined. I hope this helps. Thanks and Regards.
