I concur. I too, age 40 and it seem to have gotten worse. But I used acv for the first time. It had a stinging sensation that subsided after a few minutes. I continued twice a day for three days. (warning!!! it worked!!! ) On the third day it burst!! I saw a few blood clots and bright red blood. No more pain. Beeding lasted for some days. Because of bleeding I went to Dr. But the Dr. said it was normal and seemed healthy - bright red and not dark, maroon, or black blood is no good. sooooo.....Thanks apple cider vinegar....it worked for me!!!

Found an external grape size H several months ago and healed it by taking warm baths and improving diet. Was still experiencing soreness when sitting for long periods and suspected that the cause was internal H. Read about the use of ACV and decided to try it. Used a cotton swab to apply ACV with immediate results! Thanks for sharing.

Got hemorroids when I was Pregnant 17 years ago. Had the normal flare up once or twice a year from constipation. They always went away by themselves in a few days. Now at the age of 40 I got one at the end of Sept. Was a little stubborn but got Preparation H. It was gone in 7 days. Few days later got a bad case of diarrhea and it came back with a vengeance. Nothing at all was working to shrink it. I tried everything. Was finally going to call the Dr.
Started reading about Apple Cider Vinegar Treatment and though what the hell going to try it. WOW, it worked after just one day of treatment it shrunk by half. 2 days of treatment I finally have my pucker back with just a bb size bump. This thing was the size of a grape when I started.
I used ACV 3 times a day for 15 min. Soaked in a cotton ball and shoved it up you know where. This being day 3 of treatment I am not going to use ACV now because my bummy is a little sore but the hemmie seems to be mostly shrunk back to normal. Going to use Desetin to relieve the sting.

Wow. I've had internal hemorrhoids for many years but they did not bother me very often. As a vegetarian, I get a lot of fiber so am usually not constipated. Regardless I had a hard stool and then had a huge external hemorrhoid. The nurse said to get some Anusol but didn't write a prescription so I started looking online and found this great site. ACV sounds implausible. How could it work?? But I put a little on a cotton ball, wedged it between the cheeks and went to sleep. When I woke up, it had reduduced it's size by half. So I really soaked the cotton and reapplied it. The ACV soaked in quickly and when I checked it an hour later, it was almost gone!!!! I had only had it for a couple of days but my colonoscopy showed many hemorrhoids. It is a miracle! Felt tingly. But my hemorrhoid did not cause me any pain. It just felt odd. Do try this. I am thinking about using a small amount in an enema to see if it would get rid of the internal ones. I'm amazed and pleaded not to have to use steroids.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Thank you all good people that shared this amazing information regarding ACV.
I have been having problems with hemorrhoids for past 3-4 years. After trying all prescribed medication, I thought that I will just have to learn to live with them until I die, and at certain point do the surgeries.
How was I wrong!!! Two days ago my hemmies got inflamed and started giving me excruciating pain. Yesterday at work I was literally crying from pain. I was actually googling for info regarding where I can do the surgery immediately, when I stumbled upon this site ' earthclinic' . Oh I am so glad I did ... After reading almost everything regarding my best buddy hemmie in here I decided to try ACV, thinking I really have nothing to loose.
I applied undiluted ACV to cottonball and externally onto my buddy hemmie. I did expect a little discomfort and stinging, but it passed in 20 seconds. I left it for 10 minutes on the spot.
I did this straight coming from work, and repeated later before sleep.
This morning my buddy hemmie was half of its size (warning gross: hemmie is not one but couple of roids making one huge pile of smth that irritates and hurts me).
The pain was gone 5 minutes after applying it first time. Itchiness is still present in the internal ones, but external is subsiding in all ways.
This morning I sat finally after 3-4 years like a human being, not being scared of pain that might appear.
Please, please whom ever is having problems with hemorrhoids, please try this, it sounded ridiculous to me too.
I will update how the progress is going.
Note:
I've been having serious multiple hemorrhoid, both internal and external problem.
This is the cure!!!

Have had piles on and off for 30 years. Tried Apple Cider Vinegar on cotton wool. Works wonders! Tried this before checking what the internet had to say about it. ACV also removes moles on the skin. Apply undiluted on cotton, fix.a sticking plaster over it. Repeat twice a day for five days. The mole will drop off.... I've tried it and it works.

I've dealt with hemorrhoids on and off since the birth of my first child 3 years ago, but after having my second, it's been hard to get them to go away! I've tried creams, cold packs, sitz baths, crushed garlic (OUCH! ) tucks pads, coconut oil.. Needless to say it would help them go away in about a week or so but they would never be fully gone.. I do take miralax every night because I am recovering from an anal fissure caused by me itching my hemorrhoids but I think it's healing if not healed since I finally tried using ACV after reading all 85 YEAS on here over and over to convince myself!
I did what everyone else does..put it on a cotton ball (not diluted) and WOW!!! It didn't really sting, left it on there for about 30 min or so and I couldn't feel any pain down there anymore! My BM this morning was painless!! I'm going to use it again today. I am so happy!! I came home from work the other day because of the pain. Ugh I was desperate to try this and I'm soo happy it worked.

Am simply amazed to the point where I do not know where to start pointing this out, am a 26 year lady and I have been suffering for hemorrhoids as long as I cant remember, this might have result to staying too long during bowel movement and on/off constipation. But recently, I have been experiencing crucial sharp pain and discomfort while sleeping, walking and sitting down. So I went to hosp and Dr mentioned surgery as the only way to solve it, since I have never done surgery before I started searching in internet and come across this site. You guys are simply amazing, thank you for all for the post, I have been using ACV and am on day two and am simply amazed by the result.

Wow, I love this website. I've been following the Gerson Institute's initiative for curing cancer with Coffee enema's for Hyperthyroidism and a potentially cancerous thyroid/Goiter. I've been practicing this for over a year and found this site doing research on why my 'roids are so angry with me. Thought it might be inserting the enema tip. I've tried Witch hazel, which does stop the bleeding immediately but the problem persists and I sweat bullets worrying about the damned things starting to bleed un-announced! Especially in public, ugghh!!!
Years ago, my research on health tonics lead me to drinking ACV daily but I never enjoyed it, ..eventually stopped. But I, just 2 days ago read many of the testimonials on this site and decided to try it again. I doused cotton pats with it and kept them in the fridge. The first time I held one with my buttocks (love that word..but-tocks! Funny) against the roids, it stung like crazy for about 15 minutes, but subsided and I kept it there all night. Next a.m. swelling gone down greatly but was sore I felt from the acidic personality of the vinegar. (I use only organic ACV for good measure. Also a part of the Gerson's is organics).
It's working in that the pain from the roids is gone and I've had no blood streaking since I started. There seems to be thicker skin down there or something. Seemed like I could think about touching a roid and it'd break out singing opera and gushing bloody tears. But now, I can wipe and everything with no pain or tears. I've also started garlic, canned garlic in oil is good, and Im taking Horse chestnut tincture because I'd already ordered it before finding this website.
Thank you so much. I've suffered for quite a while and it has begun getting worse lately. But now I feel there is hope that me and my great down under will get along.
A sidenote...when I've washed my hair the last 2 days, I've found less in the tub afterward. Make sense? I read years ago that ACV used to be given to cows to encourage birthing and hormonal health. Seems ridiculous a farmer could make enough of the stuff or afford to buy enough to feed such a large animal, but only I wonder about these things it appears. So, wonder if the ACV is propping up the few hormones I may have left or turning the clock back a bit for this 60 year old. Either way, I endorse the use of ACV and will continue using it likely for the rest of my life, such is my excitement for blessed relief.

ACV for Hemmorhoids really works. I've been to 3 different doctors and countless percription ointments and nothing seemed to work I've even has rubber band ligation done on two veins 10 days ago Thinking that that procedure would cure me boy was I was wrong another grape popped out this morning and it was more painful then ever. So I end up finding this page through a google search and ran to the store to buy ACV rushed home soaks two cotton swabs in the ACV and shoved it up you know what and laid on my stomach for 15 mins and just left the ACV just seep in and my goodness it has done 1000x more than anything that and doctor or ointment has ever done. I suffered for 2 years because of these grapes popping out and I think my problem might be solved because of ACV so sick how 3 different doctors not one of them ever mentioned anything about ACV. I guess they where only interested in me coming back and them making more money. Very sad that I've lost faith in these doctors and realized that there just selfish greedy people. Take it from me 43 yr old white male in decent shape saturate those cotton balls and you'll be like wow wow wow.

I have tried the garlic clove suppository. It worked for a couple of days. They are back. I'm trying the ACV now. Seems to be helping. I want to give the garlic another go. It may take more than one time.

Hey everyone so I never really noticed my internal hemorrhoids until they recently became external. I am only 22 but I distinctly remember not eating well (skipping meals and not drinking water) for final exams and this is what resulted. Apple Cider Vinegar is great at shrinking the blood supply to the hemorrhoids in order for them to go away and I have also used it for some skin tags I got back there. VERY effective. I will let you know how well it works for my NEW external Hems :(

I'm a 39 year old male and a few days ago I discovered a hemorrhoid and freaked out thinking that it might be a cancerous tumor. After a bit of googling I realized that it was more than likely a hemorrhoid. I thought perhaps that if I just left it alone it would go away of it's own accord but it became more and more uncomfortable to sit down for long periods of time. Back to google again where I found your website and after reading a couple of the reviews I tried the apple cider vinegar treatment. I dabbed a bit of the ACV on the affected area using a folded tissue and within an hour the swelling had reduced substantially. I plan to carry on using the ACV until the hemorrhoid has totally disappeared. I'm so grateful that I discovered your website. My brother suffers from hemorrhoids and has already undergone two painful surgeries to have them removed, will definitely mention this treatment the next time I see him.

I had HFH (Hemorroid-From-Hell). It was the size of a large grape. I tried all the over the counter stuff but nothing worked. Then I tried the ACV and within a few days it went half down in size. I then started getting some bleeding, so I stopped the ACV for a few days and used Prep-H. Once the bleeding stopped I went back on the ACV until it disappeared. From beginning to end of using the ACV it took about 3 weeks to go from the painful large grape size to nothing. I have made the long term adjustments to hopefully prevent this from happenings again. High fiber and low dairy and meat.
