I have had piles for the last 3 months with some pain but no bleeding, what medicine should I take?

Asked by Male, 45 · 5 days ago

For painful piles without bleeding, you can use over-the-counter topical ointments or suppositories containing lidocaine or hydrocortisone to relieve discomfort. Oral pain relievers like ibuprofen can also help manage pain. To prevent straining, I recommend a stool softener or fiber supplement like psyllium husk.Additionally, increase your daily water and fiber intake, and soak in a warm sitz bath for 15 minutes twice daily to soothe the area. Since your symptoms have persisted for three months, please consult a doctor for a physical evaluation to rule out other issues and discuss prescription-strength treatments.
