Hemorrhoids :: Warm Water, Ice Packs And Creaams Won't Work
Nov 26, 2007
i had hemorrhoids for about 6 years now and it pains like hell...just feel like that u r going to die .. i have external hemorrhoids. i sit in a warm water with salt in it...and i use ice packs as well...but it does not seem to help...i am also using a cream to get pain relief.
is anyone can suggest a better cure for hemorrhoids...i don't wanna operate it. i want to use herbal product...as i am also scared that i don't have any kids yet...what if i can't conceive and if i conceive will it get more worse...

Basically in april 2015 i went to consultant for pile treatment, he advised me to have them treated by injection, i went ahead with this procedure, for a week i was fine then i noticed the itching and pile/pain had returned went back to my consultant he told me he thinks it was a fissure and to take creams and come back to him in 3 weeks time for further consultation.
alas 2 weeks later i was in severe pain and discomfort and phoned the consultants office that i was in bad pain and was told the consultant was on holidays and would not be back for a further week!
at this stage i was told by my doctor to attend hospital a+e for emergency
treatment ,this i did and was told to present myself at the hospital fasting from night before to see a new consultant---Phew it gets worse!
arrived at the hospital new consultant in fairness said he would put me under a full GA and see what is going on there
the following morning he told me yes indeed the piles were back there was one internal and one external and that i was better off going for the laser treatment called THD, which i booked in for the following week this was at this stage mid may had the procedure and for 2 weeks felt great
however on the third week i was in severe pain in the anal area and knew something was wrong (bearing in mind i was told the THD procedure has a 90%success rate..presented myself back to the consultant in hospital had to go under a full ga again he told me afterwards that the procedure had not worked for me for fu..s sake i was one of the 10% that it did not work for so i was booked in for the following week to have the piles which i was now told one of them was thrombosed removed by surgery so have had this done in mid june and have been in terrible pain since, especially after bm to the point where all i could do is sit/lie in the house all day taking pain killers stool softeners and baths every day. every time i phoned the consultant i was told it takes time to heal so after 7 weeks of severe pain id had enough, i went to my doctor got a letter of him to see the consultant urgently as i was in severe pain meet with the consultant am now booked in again for early next week this is what he said the wound is healing however it is a time thing, he will have a further look at me to see if there is something else causing this awful pain he said there is no fissure but wants to give me a botox injection in the anal area to help with the healing, can anyone please advise with this as i do not want to get any worse pain than i am in presently sorry for the long rant but this is actually what happened to me it has changed my life whereby in the last 6 months being in terrible pain and discomfort and am now wary about this botox injection

I have always used bags of ice or frozen peas, corn, green beans, etc. for icing ankles, knees, etc.
Recently, at my PT session I found that they had the same type of gel packs used there FOR SALE.
Since I go in for my second knee replacement Friday I decided to get my knees a PRESENT...two gel packs for icing!
My soon-to-be SURGICAL KNEE has really been acting up, so I used the gel packs tonight.
They worked SO WELL, and were very easy to wrap around my knees because they are about a foot and a half wide. I just wrapped each in a bath towel and enjoyed the experience without any drips or frozen peas escaping onto the floor!
They were pricey...$25 a piece...but the convenience, the great performance, and the ease of use definitely are worth every penny in my opinion!
Unlike ice the gel conforms to do a very efficient job of touching the exact areas you want them to touch.
I wish now that I had known about them sooner!
Oh, and they don't slide off like bags of ice always do.
The ones I got were Sammons Preston Cold Packs. No latex and all non-toxic ingredients inside.
They are like a PARTY for my KNEES!

I have had PR for 3 weeks now.
I have spots all over my stomach, chest, arms and a few on my upper legs.
The itching is driving me mad.
I have tried calamine, bio oil, moisturisers, piriton and anti-itch creams but they just don't do the trick. Today I tried anti dandruff shampoo as I know it has worked for a lot of people on here. Sadly not on my spots. The minute I put it on the itching got 10 times worse!
The only thing that I have found to work is to have a warm shower and exfoliate them. I have found that after doing this I have at least 90 minutes with no itching. So far this evening I have had 4 showers!!!!! Fingers crossed this is nearly the end of PR as I may go crazy if it doesn't go soon.

I have been dealing with the first few months of CRPS which started as burning hot and has changed to a freezing foot that turns blue or purple. Lately I have noticed the bottom of my foot will be ice cold but the top of my foot is normal temp, my toes are like ice. Is anyone else experiencing this? I am battling the workers comp nightmare right now and I hate to tell them about this as it may complicate an already horrible experience dealing with them.

I was very happy to find that common table salt in a warm bath cured my Scabies. After soaking for 15 minutes, get out of the bath and drip dry. Do not use a towel, but if you must, just pat dry with kitchen towels as they are more hygienic.If needed, repeat after 4 days.
I feel this treatment should be made public, as it is free of harmful poisons associated with common cures prescribed by the physician.
The salt will get into the mite holes to kill the eggs, and also kill the mites on the surface almost instantly.
This is something all families have readily available in the kitchen, and is very simple to use.
Make sure all bedding is washed in at least 50 degrees, and clothing is changed and washed as hot as possible.

In March I started taking my birth control again after being off of it for two months. I was going on vacation in April and I didn't want to be on my period. So, I started my next birth control pack during the placebo week of April which started March 30th to avoid getting my period that week. I still ended up getting my period anyway. Well my placebo week for the second pack was the week of April 20th I never got my period and the week of April 27th was technically suppose to be the real week I got my period since my period never skipped with me taking my birth control pack back to back and it still hasn't shown. Is it possible it hasn't shown because of me taking my birth control packs back to back has thrown it off?
As of now I am still taking my birth control like normal. I started my third pack the week of April 27th.
Also, I am not pregnant because even with me still being on birth control I always use condoms. So, no worry about that.

swollen neck glands are pretty common I know, but do many of you also get swelling in the groin area as well? This is new to me. I have not had a good week and earlier in the week I had swollen neck glands which I am familiar with, sore throat, aching muscles etc but today found a swelling in my groin which is tender and warm. Should I be worried?

Hearing heartbeat in ears. Sometimes it gets stronger First symptom is face gets very warm no fever, ears get hot and red and sensitive (right one) and whoosh or tzzing hearing in ears like pulse. It subsides after 8 hrs or less. Impossible to sleep. If I sleep flat on back am awakened 2 hrs later by
very strong heart beat like its forcing a lot of blood thru. Subsides with exercise. Condition goes away for 48 hrs so heart system not fighting infection. If I sleep with upper torso at 45 degree angle still wake after 2 hrs but pulses not as strong. Then after I can sleep for hrs no problem. Dr checked ears ok, did all blood work ok, I'm male 67 yrs and in gen good health. Did ultrasound on abdominal kidneys bladder ok. Seems like some chemical command triggering heart to pump harder and faster not too fast. I tested things to try to determine what triggers the face heat, ears hot and harder beats, chocolate, caffeine, pepsi's, salt, coughing, cigarette smoking, stressful video games have no effect. BP normal am taking Ramipril 10 mg Altace nothing else. Dont think its heart but something telling heart to work hard, feel it thumping in chest. Just repeated T3's blood test..and 24 hr urine special test..awaiting results. Reg urine test showed nothing, and abdominal ultrasound clear. No dizziness, nausea etc. Bowel and urine movement perfect, no pains or lightheadedness.

My internal hems. are not responding to a doctor's injections. They (3) are not major, but I wish (almost) they would become thrombus so it/they could be cut out. I had that years ago.
The pain is not so great as to cause bleeding, toilet trouble but the pain is there every day for two months.
Putting on ointments in public toilets all the time to cool the pain. Awful. Inconvenient and interferes with daily life.
Gets worse with stress.
Getting desperate, looking online - Venapro. But online wonder-meds never seem to work so I'm sceptical.

Now at day 41 and stapedectomy still not working. Hearing was no better when packing was removed at 2 weeks. Surgeon said it will still be fluid. Climbing the walls counting EVERY single day. Waiting for something to happen. Just had a weeks course of steroids, no difference. It feels as if i'm in a goldfish bowl and everybody around me is on the outside, i feel like i'm in a deep hole and can't get out. I'm sure there's still fluid there as i can feel it when i swallow, and also on several occasions each day when i swallow, mainly listening to music, i get a one split second burst of loudness which after reading the internet makes me thinks it's my tube blocked? But it doesn't hold open for longer than a swallow. I also get like a thumping on my eardrum when i belch, as if a blast hits it? This also wakes me in the night with the banging. Not that i sleep much as EVERY waking moment of my life at the moment is consumed by it. I've had 6 weeks off work until now, due to go back in tomorrow. My unsteadiness had cleared for about 10 days but came back with avengence a couple of days ago. Not vertigo dizziness, but like the quick movements dizziness. I do still get crackling and clicking in my ear. Spoke to surgeons secretary last thursday who is going to get a message to him this tuesday, as that's the first time she will see him apparently. Has anybody else had fluid for this amount of time, or can give any advice or anything to make me feel it'll still work and that i can get my life back?

I'm currently suffering from a Uti that causes me to Urinate litres of water and I was given a seven day course of Trimethoprim when the doctor found bacteria and blood in my urine. It been 48 hours since I started and I have had 5 of the tablets. There has been no difference, should it have already started? I'm male, which may mean that it takes longer to work than say a women in this situation.
