Topic: How To Use Apple Cider Vinegar For Hemorrhoids?

Strictly speaking, hemorrhoids are naturally occurring blood vessels in your anal area. They play a role, in particular in anal continence or during defecation.

A person says they have hemorrhoids when these blood vessels stay dilated and increase in size. They can become painful and even bleed. We also speak of hemorrhoidal crises or hemorrhoidal bundles.

They can occur at any age, even if it is found that one in two people over 50 years of age suffers or suffered from it during their lifetime.

Having hemorrhoids is usually by no means related to any disease, but you may be wondering how to get rid of hemorrhoids naturally.

An alternative to the medication that your grandparents may have advised you is to use apple cider vinegar to treat them and make them go away.

To be effective, apple cider vinegar should be applied to the area affected by hemorrhoids two to three times a day.

Through this article, you will discover our opinion on this solution and how to treat your hemorrhoids with apple cider vinegar. 

In most cases, hemorrhoids are painless and related to transit disorders, hormonal disturbances (during pregnancy and even after childbirth, for example), if you have a terrible habit of sitting if you are sedentary, or have an unhealthy diet.

We then distinguish 2 types of hemorrhoids, internal hemorrhoids and external hemorrhoids.

INTERNAL HEMORRHOIDS

Internal hemorrhoids are located inside the rectum. Usually, they are not visible, although some of them may protrude slightly from your anus when they are large (prolapse).

This type of hemorrhoids may be more challenging to detect than external hemorrhoids. However, your doctor can diagnose them by taking a digital rectal examination or using an anoscopy.

EXTERNAL HEMORRHOIDS

External hemorrhoids are located outside the anus and on your buttocks. They are visible, sensitive, and can quickly become annoying when you sit for a long time in a chair, for example.

HEMORRHOID THROMBOSES

A thrombosed hemorrhoid is an internal or external hemorrhoid with a blood clot that clogs it due to unhealthy clotting. This type of hemorrhoid can be excruciating and responsible for a bluish swelling, burning sensation, discomfort and may require surgical treatment.

You may then find traces of bright red blood on your toilet paper or wipes after passing stool.

Apple cider vinegar for Internal Hemorrhoids

Orally 

If you are suffering from internal hemorrhoids (and external hemorrhoids as well for this method), you can use the following methods to treat your swelling.

  • Start by diluting in a glass of water, morning and evening a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
  • Drink the mixture

This routine will allow you, in particular, to warn you of their appearances. It is also recommended in people with chronic hemorrhoidal appearances.

Suppositories

  • Introduce it into your anus
  • Keep it for 30 minutes

Another variation of this application is to use a small piece of vinegar in the form of an ice cube as a suppository.

CAUTION WHEN USING CIDER VINEGAR ON YOUR HEMORRHOIDS

If you experience a tingling or find that the apple cider vinegar is too strong, you can dilute it in water.

Some patients are more sensitive than others. If in doubt about your sensitivity to apple cider vinegar or how to treat your hemorrhoids with this method, seek the advice of your doctor.

OTHER TIPS AGAINST HEMORRHOIDS

Apple cider vinegar is not the only effective natural solution for hemorrhoids.

Lemon juice against hemorrhoids

Lemon effectively stimulates blood circulation. Consuming lemon should help you limit the risk of the appearance and development of internal and external hemorrhoids.

Be careful; however, applying pure lemon to your hemorrhoids can be painful and irritated.

For local application on your external hemorrhoids, dilute it in as much water as necessary.

Green clay and external hemorrhoids

Green clay can be a long-lasting natural solution to soothe your hemorrhoids.

For that,

  • Mix green clay powder and water in a container
  • Apply a thick layer on your hemorrhoids
  • Leave on for about 30 minutes
  • The operation is to be repeated 2 to 3 times a day

Baking soda and hemorrhoids

The use of baking soda is very effective in treating hemorrhoids. Usually, it is used to treat external hemorrhoids. However, you can add it to your eating routine to treat internal hemorrhoids.

Orthopedic cushion

Hemorrhoid pillows work effectively by reducing anal pressure while sitting. Indeed, it is interesting to complete the application of natural solutions by relieving your posture when you are too long in a chair or when you drive.

Conclusion : 

There is still a multitude of tips for the treatment of hemorrhoids. Applications based on the essential oil of cypress, red vine, or horse chestnut may be more suitable for you.

Also, know that an excellent hygienic habit can significantly help you relieve hemorrhoids. It is essential to drink plenty of water, eat a diet rich in fiber (prunes, for example), and avoid consuming too many spices.

Despite your best efforts, some hemorrhoids may be more challenging to treat than others. Know that drug treatments exist. They can be creams, ointments, and capsules with various properties (analgesics, analgesics, cortisone, etc.) and applied to the painful area.

If in doubt, your doctor will be able to advise you on a method that is right for you to relieve hemorrhoids.
