(Helpful tip) Apply oil when hemorrhoids are severe.

I'm not sure if there is scientific evidence.

Recently, my hemorrhoids suddenly worsened, and I was very shocked.

It has gotten worse since childbirth, but I was extremely painful on the day of delivery, and I haven't experienced any particular pain since then.

This Lunar New Year, I was uncomfortable at my parents' house, and I also have constipation, so I exerted a lot of effort, causing a large, protruding bulge that didn't go down, and it was painful and uncomfortable.

Everyone was telling me to sit in a warm bath, but even after several days of doing so, there was no improvement, so I thought I might need surgery and was searching for a hospital.

While researching various things, I came across an old article about hemorrhoid oil. I didn't want to buy a new one, so I used a wound and inflammation remedy called Tamanu oil that I had at home. I wore vinyl gloves, dropped two or three drops, and applied it around and inside the anus.

After applying it for about a week, the swelling went down and improved. I applied it consistently every day, but after taking a few days off, it slightly recurred once. So I applied it again for a few days, and since then I haven't applied it, and it hasn't recurred.

I think it doesn't have to be that oil; something like olive oil would be fine too. Maybe because the oil is on it, it protects the wound and helps it come out smoothly and gently when it changes, which I think made it more effective.

It's not good to wash the anus with soap. They say the anus needs oil. I washed with soap after having a bowel movement, so maybe that made it worse... I wonder if the oil was effective.

If you're feeling overwhelmed and don't want to go to the hospital, please try it for just one week. ^^
