Zinc Oxide Powders and Creamers
These agents aren’t magic, but they are good for ordinary problems. The creams soothe the irritated area while the body heals the inflamed veins. They also help toughen the skin over the hemorrhoids so that they are less easily irritated. Don’t trap bacteria beneath the creams; apply them after a bath when the area has been carefully cleaned and dried.
Reading the Labels
I do not advocate the use of creams that contain ingredients identified by the suffix “-caine” because repeated use of these local anesthetics can cause further irritation. The other heavily advertised products, in my opinion, offer little advantage over zinc oxide.
Dosage
Apply as needed, following label directions.
Side Effects
Essentially none.
Hemorrhoids are treated according to the types and its symptoms.Sometimes its too painful and also difficult to pass stool at that time, shooting local anesthetics help you in pain relief but its not the proper treatment.We can also use sitz bath ie sitting in hot water tub for a while which will help sooth the pain. While definitive treatment involves surgery.
