Effective Hemorrhoids Treatment
Here are some ways to treat hemorrhoids naturally:
Diet for smooth bowel movement
Constipation is the root cause for the hemorrhoids. In order to prevent constipation, you must eat fiber-rich foods because such foods help your stools become soft and bulky. Your diet should contain beans, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, carrots, fresh fruits and vegetables, bran cereals, and whole grains. Avoid foods that are non-fibrous such as wheat, sugar, cheese, ice cream, meat, processed foods, etc. thereby avoiding development of hemorrhoids.
If your diet has more fresh fruits and vegetables, your rectum arteries will get strengthened and your hemorrhoids will not deteriorate. This is mainly because the chemicals important for strengthening the blood vessels walls – Anthocyanidins and Pythochemicals – exist in the vegetables and fruits.
Drink good amount of water
In order to control constipation and diarrhea, you must drink lots of water every day. Intake of alcohol chili peppers will aggravate the hemorrhoids.
Less acidic diet
Itching of hemorrhoids occurs when the stools are acidic and hence the acid level should be under control. This can be done by avoiding citrus fruits and its juices, soda, wine, and beer – all of these are highly acidic in nature. In addition, you must avoid coffee and products that are caffeinated because these can cause flatulence, reduced pressure of the anal sphincter, and increased sensitivity of the anal skin.
Dietary supplements, tea and medication
Herbal teas are most useful for increasing your metabolism; they remove the toxins in the body and also strengthen the arteries in the rectum. The herbal items – butcher’s broom, barberry, neem, horse chestnut extract, Slippery Elm, Psyllium, Witch Hazel and White Oak Bark – are the most popular ones. Herbs can also be applied externally on the affected areas. The most popular one in this category is Aloe Vera, which in the form of gel is useful for soothing and cooling.
