Homeopathy for Haemorrhiods

Haemorrhoids, also called piles, are dilated rectal veins that have clotted and become inflamed. Veins in the rectal or anal area become swollen and painful and at certain instances may also bleed. It may occur inside the entrance of the anus (internal haemorrhoids) or outside the entrance of the anus (external haemorrhoids).
A blood clot (thrombosis) may form in the vein, making the haemorrhoid more painful and sometimes even requiring surgical treatment.

Homeopathy for haemorrhoidsManage hemorrhoids with diet & homeopathy!

Almost everyone who suffers from haemorrhoids (even those who are not constipated) benefits with dietary changes. The best way to deal with hemorrhoids is to consume more fibre and fluid diet. This will ensure a stool that is soft and bulky and, therefore, would be much easier to eliminate.
Alcohol, coffee and nuts can aggravate haemorrhoids for a few. So, it’s best to avoid them completely. Local treatments such as warm sitz baths, cold compress or topical analgesic can provide temporary relief.
Homeopathic medicines for hemorrhoids are prescribed according to individual symptoms to manage the condition on a long-term basis and prevent its recurrence. Conventional treatment involves the use of medicines that make the condition more manageable, but offer only temporary relief. So, you need to consume them life-long.
Whereas, homeopathic medicines for haemorrhoids aim to manage the problem internally, by restoring the internal processes of the body. Homeopathic medications help address the condition naturally and effectively. Invasive procedures like surgery can be held-off with the help of homeopathic medicines.
