Causes of hemorrhoidsHemorrhoids are caused by too much pressure in the rectum, forcing blood to stretch and swell the blood vessels.

What are Hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids are basically varicose veins that build up in the rectal area, either inside of, or outside of, the body. In either case they can become severe enough to get strangulated where tissue twists around itself, trapping minute blood vessels within. This causes immense pain and can lead to infection occurring within the site. The best way to deal with the swelling of external hemorrhoids is application of an ice pack to the area. Ice packs should be applied to the area several times a day, eventually reducing swelling and, subsequently, much of the bruised feeling associated with hemorrhoids.

External Hemorrhoids

External hemorrhoids develop outside the body, around the anus, often appearing to look like a bunch of grapes hanging from a stalk. While external hemorrhoids are often considered easier to treat, this makes them no less painful and they can still cause the sufferer considerable discomfort in terms of itching, swelling, bleeding and burning. Sitz baths are often recommended for soothing external hemorrhoids, although many people have reported little relief. There are also various creams and lotions that can be applied topically although, invariably, many sufferers only experience a slight relief from their symptoms.

Natural Remedies

One of the best topical remedies that has stood the test of time, is Witch hazel which is a natural astringent and is both cooling and soothing when applied. Naturally this is only really suitable for the treatment of external hemorrhoids - the relief obtained, however, is reassuring. Another natural remedy often recommended for external hemorrhoids is Aloe Vera which has similar properties to Witch hazel and is equally soothing. Does anybody remember when the HMiracle [Hemorrhoid Miracle] Treatment Plan was introduced to the market by Holly Hayden? Despite its effectiveness, it was treated with much suspicion until it had been tried and tested and found to be effective.

More recently, a product has come on the market following years of research by its developer, Jerry Holloway, also a hemorrhoid sufferer. Having reached the end of his tether, with nothing working, he came up with the idea behind Destroy Hemorrhoids - garnered, according to Jerry Holloway, from information about hemorrhoids that he came across in literature about Hippocrates in 400 BC. The main concept behind Destroy Hemorrhoids is to educate sufferers as to the condition. Sufferers will learn what causes hemorrhoids to develop, how they develop and how to treat hemorrhoids if they do develop.

In fact, the statistics revealed in the Destroy Hemorrhoids package will probably be quite an eye-opener! Furthermore, the treatments recommended in the Destroy Hemorrhoids package are certainly no more expensive - and probably cheaper - than many of the ointments and lotions you have been buying for years. The techniques that Destroy Hemorrhoids teaches you can be followed quite easily, offering advice on diet and specific food items that could make all the difference to your overall well-being - as well as eradicating the need for further hemorrhoid treatments in the future.

Destroy Hemorrhoids offers the sufferer a 3-step system to eradicate hemorrhoids within 3 days. Basically, you could probably find the secret ingredient, referred to by the Destroy Hemorrhoids advertising as being contained in Step One, in any grocery store. Common sense tends to tell me that it has something to do with a soluble fiber of one sort or another. Furthermore, Step Two refers to 95% of hemorrhoid sufferers suffering from dietary deficiency.

As a nutritionist myself that makes perfect sense - especially when you consider that today's diets tend to be lacking in fruit and fiber; and most people drink too little water. Any diet that lacks essential nutrients found in fruit and vegetables can result in a sluggish and inefficient digestive system. To work properly, the digestive system needs regular quantities of sufficient fiber and water: too little results in constipation, straining while attempting to evacuate too-solid feces and, subsequently, the development of hemorrhoids. Meanwhile, Step 3 advises on two foods that must be avoided if you are to prevent your hemorrhoids from returning.

Conclusion

The trouble with natural remedies, especially ones that claim in their advertising to work where traditional medicine cannot, is that it makes their claims rather unbelievable. Consequently, readers experience underlying qualms about accepting what sounds, to them, like dubious claims. This is compounded by the 'closed' aspect of these natural remedies' sites which don't allow you to find out exactly what it is they want you to purchase until after you have actually done so: it's hardly conducive to developing trust between potential customer and seller.

Having made that point, however, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind, following my extensive research into this product, that Destroy Hemorrhoids and others of similar ilk are effective in treating and eradicating hemorrhoids. The recommendations contained within this package offer a valid and cost-effective treatment for hemorrhoids which cannot be obtained from ordinary over-the-counter ointments, creams and lotions. Destroy Hemorrhoids is certainly something that I would recommend to sufferers to try.
