Hemorrhoids cause blood vessels to bulge, however cold therapy can significantly reduce swelling nd provide comfort. For temporary relief from haemorrhoids, stuff a bag with ice, cover it with a thin cloth, and sit on the bag for about 20 minutes. Repeat as need, but give yourself at least ten minutes in between applications.

If you can, take a bath instead of your normal shower so you may bathe your anal area in warm water. Avoid using soap, alcohol-based wipes, or wipes with fragrances since these products may aggravate haemorrhoids (but don't worry, a warm soak will still get the job done). Use a hair dryer to gently dry the region once you get out of the tub.

How may haemorrhoids be treated without creams or gels? Simply stretch out on a couch with your legs up for 30 minutes to take the weight off your aching anal area. Your backside's circulation will also be improved, which will help relieve haemorrhoids.
