Use this buttermilk cure.
Drinking buttermilk after food helps to cool the body and it is one of the best home remedies for hemorrhoids. Drinking white radish juice or applying the paste of white radish in the anus or coriander juice, or cumin seeds paste will reduce pain. These are home remedies for hemorrhoids. Drinking 8-10 glasses of water a day is very helpful as well as avoiding the abundance of processed foods. If you are regularly consuming these types of fast foods it is important to stop or to at least cut down on the junk foods and start eating healthy fresh foods. Drinking a glassful of buttermilk combined with 2 tablespoon of bitter melon juice could help reduce the swelling of piles. Do this everyday for one month.
Avoid sitting or standing in the same position for long periods.
Avoid sitting or standing in the same position for long periods, or sitting on the toilet for a long time, and becoming either constipated or having loose stools. Those things will help you avoid getting an uncomfortable problem that won't go away. Avoid prolonged sitting or too much straining on the toilet. Practice regular toilet habits. Avoid straining and sitting for more than a few minutes, even if you feel you are not done. The urge will return and do not stifle it.
Avoid strong or harsh laxatives.
Most of these laxatives type products induce unnecessary straining at the bowel movements and often overdo their jobs by creating a condition similar to diarrhea.
Other things to avoid...
Avoid over working yourself and have a warm sitz bath at east once daily to sooth the affected area. Avoid straining yourself while passing a stool. Don't hold your breathe when passing a stool. Avoid eating foods like cheese, or those that are high in sugar and low in fiber. These foods will slow down the digestive system and can cause constipation.
Make good use of your bathtub.
Fill your bathtub with just enough warm water to cover the anal area. Do this several times a day, especially after you have had a bowel movement. Fill your bath with three to four inches of warm, not hot, water. Don't add anything to the water.
There are universal applications for anal hemorrhoids everywhere. However, it is up to you to decide the way to use these applications and get the best results from them.
