If you are reading this, you likely have had to deal with hemorrhoids. While not a very public subject, through a person’s lifetime, about 50 percent of us will have to deal with them. Suffering from hemorrhoids is not only painful and uncomfortable, it also can be embarrassing. Here are some tips in the treatment of hemorrhoids you can follow that will possibly shorten the time you are in pain, and also help prevent future occurrences.

Make fiber a regular part of your daily meals

Fiber helps to loosen the stool and lessen the chances of constipation. This will allow less strain and pressure during bowel movements. Foods that are good include whole grain breads and cereals, beans, fresh or lightly cooked fruits and vegetables, brown rice and other grains, nuts and seeds.

Cut back on low-fiber foods, and “convenience” foods

Foods that are low in fiber and convenience foods (refined and processed foods) can allow the stool to remain hard and dry, thus creating strain during bowel movements. Included are cheeses, meat, chips, pizza, ice cream, cake, pies and other pastries, even frozen dinners.

Drink more fluids

Getting more fluids through the body will also help to loosen the stool.

Regular exercise

By getting into a regular exercise routine, something as simple as walking even, can help reduce the occurrences of hemorrhoids. As you exercise, you increase blood circulation throughout the body, including the anus, and distributes the needed nutrients to strengthen veins. However, avoid exercise that might cause strain to the lower back and central body area such as weight lifting.

Avoid strain during bowel movements

In other words, do not force it out. This could cause the hemorrhoids to swell and extend the length of time you suffer. When you feel the need to go, do not hold off too long as this cause also lead to complications.

Laxatives are not recommended

Except for maybe Metamucil or Fiberall, it is best to stay away from laxatives. Since a laxative will lead to diarrhea, this could also extend the treatment of hemorrhoids.

It all really comes down to lessened strain. These tips will help you with just that, and ease your mind, as well as certain bodily functions.

Personally, I have had to deal with hemorrhoids – they are not fun at all. Talking about the “H” word to friends and colleagues usually is not a simple matter – embarrassment causes us to search on our own for the cure. If you are like me, you probably have looked for a magical cure for hemorrhoids. I do not think that there is any such thing, but I did find something that comes very close.
