Prevention
Avoid straining during bowel movements. You can also help prevent hemorrhoids by preventing constipation. Drink plenty of fluids (at least eight glasses per day). Eat a high-fiber diet (fruits, vegetables, whole grains). You may want to consider fiber supplements.
Fiber
Soluble fiber, such as psyllium, may be recommended by a physician to help soften stool and reduce the pain associated with hemorrhoids.
Flavonoids
This group of antioxidants, found primarily in dark berries, can help maintain or regain vascular integrity. Loss of vascular integrity due to age or other causes can contribute to the development of hemorrhoids.
Herbs
The use of herbs is a time-honored approach to strengthening the body and treating symptoms. Herbs, however, contain active substances that can trigger side effects and interact with other herbs, supplements, or medications. For these reasons, herbs should be taken with care and only under the supervision of a practitioner knowledgeable in the field of herbal medicine. Some remedies that such a practitioner might consider based on clinical experience include:
-
Goldenrod (Solidago virgaurea) – used topically in traditional herbal medicine to reduce inflammation of hemorrhoids.
-
Gotu kola (Centella asiatica) – used for venous insufficiency, pooling of blood in different locations such as the legs.
-
Grape seed (Vitis vinifera) – used by European folk healers to stop bleeding, inflammation, and pain, such as the kind brought on by hemorrhoids.
-
Roman Chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile) - This herb may reduce inflammation associated with hemorrhoids.
-
St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) – applied topically, may prove to be beneficial for reducing pain and inflammation from hemorrhoids.
-
Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) -- popular in European folk medicine, this herb has traditionally been used to treat wounds and bleeding hemorrhoids.
