What Is Aromatherapy

There are a number of different foods capable of treating hemorrhoids and the unfavorable symptoms they carry which go far beyond eating a good hemorrhoids diet. Use garlic or onion to help decrease swelling and eliminate bacteria. Take the outer layer off of the onion or garlic and place it in the rectum. This will help remove waste, lessen irritation and bacteria. Disregard this method if you have bleeding hemorrhoids.

Another alternative is lemon juice. With the peel still in place, cut the lemon into four equal parts. Put the lemon pieces into a about 34 ounces of water and let it boil for approximately 15 minutes. To help stop constipation and make bowel movements easier, drink one cup of the lemon water daily. In addition, the juice builds up the blood vessels and capillary vessels.

Another unconventional method is potato suppositories. Skin the potato and cut it into little, cone-shaped pieces. Place the potato inside your rectum three times a week, just like you would insert a suppository. This will encourage proper bowel movements and decrease pain.
