Question

I'm dealing with hemorrhoids for about a year and a half now, and I'm really eager to find a solution. Could it be an issue if I start going to the gym or playing sports? Any advice would be great!

Soak regularly in a warm bath or sitz bath. Soak your anal area in plain warm water 10 to 15 minutes two to three times a day..... Don't use dry toilet paper. To help keep the anal area clean after a bowel movement, use moist towelettes or wet toilet paper that doesn't contain perfume or alcohol. Apply cold. Apply ice packs or cold compresses on your anus to relieve swelling. With these treatments, hemorrhoid symptoms often go away within a week.
