What are haemorrhoids:-Haemorrhoids (commonly known as piles) are swellings in or around the bottom which contain enlarged blood vessels. In many cases, hemorrhoids don’t cause any symptoms and you may not even notice that you have them. However, it is possible for them to cause some symptoms including:
Bleeding after passing a stool (you will notice that the blood is usually bright red)
Itchy bottom
A lump hanging down outside of the anus which may need to be pushed back in after passing a stool
Mucus discharge after passing a stool
Soreness, redness, and swelling around the anus area
Hemorrhoids are not often painful unless the blood supply slows down or is interrupted.
How to treat piles
Hemorrhoids tend to clear up on their own after a few days, but there are treatments that you can use which can help to reduce the itching and discomfort that can be experienced when suffering from hemorrhoids. Making simple dietary changes by including more fiber and water in your diet to ensure stools can pass without strain. Creams, such as Germoloids, ointments, and suppositories can be used to relieve swelling and discomfort. If you experience severe symptoms, pain, or discomfort caused by hemorrhoids, it is recommended that you seek advice from your doctor. If you experience any bleeding from your bottom (rectum) and you are not completely sure that it is hemorrhoids, seek advice from your doctor as rectal bleeding can be a symptom of potentially serious illnesses.
How can Germoloids Cream provide relief from haemorrhoids:-Germoloids Cream contains two active ingredients:
Zinc oxide
Lidocaine
Zinc oxide has astringent properties, which means that it causes contractions when applied to the skin. This action can help to shrink swelling caused by hemorrhoids. It also helps to soothe and protect the anal area from damage and has mild antiseptic properties. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that helps to soothe the pain, swelling, and irritation caused by hemorrhoids and relieve itching. The cream base of this treatment can help when passing stools and reduce straining during bowel movement.
