Often, doctors may recommend pads and wipes for hemorrhoid relief. These over-the-counter products often contain witch hazel.

To use a wipe or pad, you simply rub the product over the hemorrhoid and then throw it away.

Best Hemorrhoid Treatment

There are a number of other over-the-counter treatments available for addressing hemorrhoids. Creams and ointments that contain corticosteroid drugs can ease inflammation to help reduce swelling and discomfort. Gels that contain cooling ingredients like aloe vera and witch hazel are also available for reducing symptoms. For hemorrhoids that are difficult to reach because they are located inside of the rectum, suppositories may be helpful. A suppository is a small pellet that is inserted into the rectum through the anus. Once the suppository is in place, heat from the body causes it to soften and release its active ingredients to help soothe irritation associated with hemorrhoids.
