If you want to get hemorrhoid relief, one of the first things you will want to try to increase the amount of fiber in your diet. You will be less likely to get constipated and so you will not only be able to deal with the hemorrhoids that you have now but really prevent them from recurring in the future. Dried fruits like prunes and raises are often used to help soften the stool. Drinking lots of water is a great idea too as it helps to hydrate the colon. Two of the best natural herbs include Witch Hazel and Butcher’s Broom. These herbs help to relieve swelling. Horse chestnut is another herb that can help with hemorrhoid relief. This is an herb known for relieving symptoms such as swelling and inflammation and to strengthen blood vessel walls. It can be taken either as a tea or in capsule form. Taking a warm bath is a great way to relive some of the symptoms of hemorrhoids. Also applying ice to the area can help to shrink the hemorrhoid.

i had a similar problem after i had my baby 16 weeks ago.
i ended up having a hemorroid, how i found out was i got in front of the mirror and had my bottom side facing it and i bent over and looked.
i went to the doctor and they gave me a cream for it.
do the same.
