TREATMENT FOR HEMORRHOIDS
 | Colace (a stool softener): one capsule twice
daily. Generic is OK. |
| Metamucil or Citracel (fiber supplement): start
with one teaspoon in fluid each day. Increase slowly as needed. |
| Calmol-4 suppository (lubrication): insert one
into the rectum after each bowel movement. This will prevent the hemorrhoid from
becoming worse. |
| Sitz Baths (hot water): soak for 10 minutes twice
a day. |
| If there is persistent pain or bleeding, please follow-up with the office. |
