After some loose stools, I had a particular bad case of hemorrhoids. I have bleeding hemorrhoids before, and I healed it with hygiene and witch hazel. This time it came back, and witch hazel did not help. Tried castor oil and mouth wash, did not help either. I then put h2o2 on first then put gel from fresh aloe leave to sooth. It helped but it still bothered me though significantly less. I then made a tea out of golden seal root powder and dabbed it on. It helped but not completely. I then made a tea out of dried calendula flower and added it to the golden seal tea, so each portion is about half and half. I dabbed on the mixture. I could feel it made a real difference. I continued this tea mixture every time after a bowel movement. After a couple of days, I could not feel it anymore. Also, don't sit right the hemorrhoid spot. Elevating your bottom a bit, whether by tilting it left or right by lifting up your thigh or sitting on donut shape cushion, so that area is not touching anything. Hygiene is another must. Put some water on toilet paper and damp wipe until no spot after each bowel movement. Among all of the remedies I tried, the mixture of golden seal root and calendula flower tea worked the best.
