I asked DW, since she knows everything (we threw away the encyclopedias because of her vast knowledge). Her answer is Divorce! That's the only way to get rid of a pain in the ass.:tiphat:

Sitz baths and preparation H or anusol. It is what my parents would do from time to time.

I swear, this is how my dad got rid of them. He went to the doc and they put a tiny little rubber band around it and he left. I guess it cuts off the blood supply and they just fall off after a few days. I remember him saying it didn't hurt.

Good one Lefty. It made clicking on this thread more bearable.
I know of a couple guys that had to get them operated on. I don't know the ins and outs of the procedure and don't want to leave you hanging..... but I can imagine it wasn't a pleasant experience. They don't even put you under I was told. Spin your butt right up in the air.

I've got 'em. Not as severe as some, but they're rather annoying at times.

Okay, those of you who're squeamish, look away for a bit:

Make darn sure you keep a clean hinder! If the weather's hot and I'm doin' some serious sweatin.........they bother.


I've hear of using Vicks, but the neighbors can hear ya a mile away!

Medical treatment of hemorrhoids is aimed initially at relieving symptoms. Measures to reduce symptoms include--

* tub baths several times a day in plain, warm water for about 10 minutes
* application of a hemorrhoidal cream or suppository to the affected area for a limited time

Preventing the recurrence of hemorrhoids will require relieving the pressure and straining of constipation. Doctors will often recommend increasing fiber and fluids in the diet. Eating the right amount of fiber and drinking six to eight glasses of fluid—not alcohol—result in softer, bulkier stools. A softer stool makes emptying the bowels easier and lessens the pressure on hemorrhoids caused by straining. Eliminating straining also helps prevent the hemorrhoids from protruding.

Good sources of fiber are fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. In addition, doctors may suggest a bulk stool softener or a fiber supplement such as psyllium (Metamucil) or methylcellulose (Citrucel).

In some cases, hemorrhoids must be treated endoscopically or surgically. These methods are used to shrink and destroy the hemorrhoidal tissue. The doctor will perform the procedure during an office or hospital visit.

A number of methods may be used to remove or reduce the size of internal hemorrhoids. These techniques include:

Rubber band ligation. A rubber band is placed around the base of the hemorrhoid inside the rectum. The band cuts off circulation, and the hemorrhoid withers away within a few days.

Sclerotherapy. A chemical solution is injected around the blood vessel to shrink the hemorrhoid.

Infrared coagulation. A special device is used to burn hemorrhoidal tissue.


Hemorrhoidectomy. Occasionally, extensive or severe internal or external hemorrhoids may require removal by surgery known as hemorrhoidectomy.
