Useful hemorrhoid relief

Read this article to learn how to control or get rid of your hemorrhoids.

If you or a loved one suffers from hemorrhoids, I don't have to tell you how unpleasant the whole experience can be. Hemorrhoids are swollen arteries in and around the rectum that can cause severe burning, itching, or sometimes bleeding. If your stool shows signs of blood, you should always seek medical attention.

This hemorrhoid information page was written entirely by a person who has suffered from hemorrhoids for ten years before finally realizing the secrets of living with this very common disease.

What about all the creams, ointments and medications for hemorrhoids? All of these have one thing in common. They attempt to temporarily relieve the pain and discomfort associated with swollen hemorrhoids. And we all know how slimy these ointments feel after application! In my opinion, by the time you've reached the point where you need to spread beeswax on your butt to stop the burning, it's too late! You have your hemorrhoids swollen to the point where you are in severe pain. That's correct. YOU are in control of how often you have to suffer from hemorrhoids. In the following sections, I will explain how you can control your hemorrhoids through diet and habit to dramatically reduce your discomfort.

Do not aggravate or swell your hemorrhoids. Constipation is one of the main causes of swollen hemorrhoids. If you experience constipation for just two days, your hemorrhoids may remain swollen and painful for days. Of course, that's when everyone starts applying the nice creams and ointments in a desperate attempt to get some relief. Another cause of swollen hemorrhoids is excessive pressure during bowel movements. They say you should never push hard during a bowel movement, but that makes dealing with constipation almost impossible. What is the answer? Avoid constipation in the first place and you will dramatically reduce your hemorrhoid flare-ups!

I'm not a doctor. I am not a nutritionist. I'm just a guy who figured out what to eat and what NOT to eat to avoid these itchy monsters.

Here is my secret. Avoid eating large amounts of foods such as pizza, bread, sweets, and processed foods. Let me repeat... If you eat a lot of bread or pizza or products made from flour without drinking enough fluids, you will get hemorrhoids that you will not soon forget. Chocolate is another enemy. If you love it, eat very small amounts.

The most effective change you can make in your diet is to drink more water! I don't like the bland taste of water, so I started drinking Gatorade. Drink water or Gatorade and drink lots of it. I guarantee that your hemorrhoids will almost completely disappear. It sounds simple, but I'll repeat it again so it sinks in. DRINK MORE WATER or Gatorade – at least 4 large glasses per day.

Doctors treat the symptoms of hemorrhoids. This article is intended to help you avoid the problem in the first place. Then you don't need a doctor, no embarrassing appointments and all the ointments!

Foods and Drinks to Avoid:

Food and drinks to enjoy:

Avoid products sealed in vinegar jars. Pickle juice is mostly vinegar. Also avoid spicy foods, which cause the familiar itching and burning in already inflamed hemorrhoids. Overindulgence with white win or champagne can also cause itching and burning.

The secret really is moderation. After I started drinking more fluids, I noticed that weeks had gone by without suffering from hemorrhoids. I decided to treat myself to a hearty meal of my favorite pizza and guess what? No hemorrhoids the next day! Apparently my body was hydrated enough to handle the pizza (dough, bread, flour... hemorrhoid starters!). So I thought I was cured forever. I started eating pizza and bread every day and not drinking so much water and of course you know what happened. I suffered from hemorrhoids within days of returning to my old habits.

My friends' secret is moderation. Drink plenty of water or Gatorade every day. If you eat more fruits and vegetables, your hemorrhoids will almost completely disappear.
