Hemorrhoids Natural Treatment
One quarter of all adults suffer from hemorrhoids at some time in their lives. Hemorrhoids are dilated, stretched, or swollen veins that appear in or around the rectal opening. There may be blood dots within the veins, and sometimes hemorrhoids protrude out of the rectum. They may itch, tear, bleed, and cause extreme pain. In some eases, blood may be visible on the surface of the stools or on toilet paper.
Poor circulation and weakness of the blood vessels contribute to hemorrhoids. Straining during bowel movements can aggravate hemorrhoids or lead to their development. Other contributing factors include allergies, recurrent constipation, lack of exercise, lifting heavy objects, obesity, poor nutrition, and standing or sitting for long periods of time. Pregnant women often get hemorrhoids as a result of the added pressure and weight on their pelvic veins.
HELPFUL TREATMENTS
A high-fiber diet reduces constipation and therefore straining during elimination. Eating more fresh vegetables, whole grains, fruits, and legumes will promote normal bowel movements. Make sure to drink plenty of pure water as well. Regular exercise also helps; begin an exercise program to improve your circulation. As much as possible, avoid standing or sitting in one position for prolonged periods of time.
Aromatherapy can help ease the discomfort of hemorrhoids by improving circulation, soothing the pain, and promoting the regeneration and healing of tissue. Essential oils that are effective in treating hemorrhoids include coriander, cypress, juniper, myrrh, and tea tree. Tea tree oil, applied topically or used in suppositories, offers relief in many instances.
A daily Hemorrhoid Sitz Bath can decrease discomfort, stimulate circulation, and promote healing. Apply Hemorrhoid Massage Oil throughout the day, as needed.
