Any outrageous ideas anyone? Doesnt matter if it sounds silly because my lecturer asks us to come up with something to test our creativity..
we are thinking of an ointment that when applied to hemorrhoids in piles diasease will cause the hemorrhoid to bleed and thus reduce the swelling..
the best that we can come up with is an antibody that will act against the hemorrhoid but that requires specificty.. HELP! ![]()

Well, you’re only supposed to put ointment on external hemorrhoids, but here goes:
An ointment with a vasoconstrictor in it to force the blood vessels to constrict and get blood out of the hemorrhoid.
Corticosteroid ointment to reduce inflammation and therefore reduce bloodflow to the hemorrhoid.
Arnica gel to "draw" the hemorrhoid.
Please understand that I’m NOT saying to actually use any of those, but answering in the spirit you asked. The first two are usually prescription medications you need to get from your doctor and the last has never been used on hemorrhoids to my knowledge.
m not sure exactly… for this purpose lysozymes or any of its component may work out… u must try this once….
actually hard stools make the hemorrhoids to bleed,so doctors suggest to take more liquid or diet fiber to smoothen that.
Usually, rectal bleeding does not impose pain, all throughout the bowel movement. This is a very common symptom of hemorrhoids. After the bowel movement, you may observe that there are bright red blood smudges on the feces or in the toilet paper after cleaning the anus. The quantity of blood is fairly small. However, even a little amount of blood can cause the toilet water to look like vivid red and can be alarming to the person.
Herbal supplements containing butcherâs broom and chestnut are used since the earliest age to prevent hemorrhoids. They are both used to aid in the primary bad circulation, though they should not be taken by people with hypertension, hyperplasia, and pregnant and lactating mothers.
