Avocado seed for Hemorrhoids: grate an avocado seed. pour in some filtered water. strain. add some honey for taste and drink throughout the day and your hemorrhoids are gone. It worked for me. I learned this from somebody who had to wait for surgery while his surgeon was recuperating from an illness. By the time his surgeon return there was no need to go under the knife. People from Haiti should know about this.

Been suffering from non stop hemorrhoids for well over a decade. Enemas of all sorts never helped, they seem to make it worse sometimes. Tried ozone olive oil suppositories for vaginal or rectal use, I use promolife kind or made at home using purchased suppository molds, three placed at night, placed very shallow, not deep, push suppository in and don't insert finger into anus, left in overnight, wear some sort of padding for absorbing any leakage, did this nightly for about a week, then one day as I was sitting doing my normal straining, was normally expecting usual hemorrhoid to pop out, and noticed that all traces of hemorrhoids are completely gone for the first time in many many many years.
Witch Hazel for Hemorrhoids

I sat on a frozen cement step in the dead of winter and my mother told me I was going to get 'piles'. I didn't even know what she was talking about. Well unfortunately about a week later I did!!
I lived with this problem for a while until trying witch hazel. I mixed it with zinc oxide powder from the health food store which is another popular natural remedy and it worked! I would apply once or twice a day for 2-3 days and it would be pretty much entirely gone. It kept coming back however which was frustrating.
However it is almost completely gone now, rarely I have a few small symptoms but barely noticeable. I think that may be due to now taking magnesium oxide daily. I now have zero constipation whatsoever and no straining. I also use a stool to put my feet on. So those are the things that worked for me, best of luck to everyone!
Calendula and Goldenseal Tea

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.
