How many days did it take your hemorrhoid to go awayget significantly better?

Northport

I had a few days of diarrhea after a stomach virus combined with a recent change in the length of time that i sit. I'm now on day 5 of at home treatments...prescription proctofoam, frequent hot sitz baths, eating lots of fiber, drinking more water...i try to lay down on the couch rather than sit...so for those of you with success stories...i'd like to know...how many days of treatment did it take...what products do you think got you the results and how long did it take?

Well, it depends on the treatment, type and size of the hemorrhoids.In general external hemorrhoids cure much faster than internal. With Rue Care Oil a medium size hemorrhoid can shrink within 5 - 7 days, and a larger one about 12 - 14 days (this is from personal and family experience). While in case of a prolapsed internal hemorrhoid it took about 7 days for the prolapse to shrink and about 2.5 weeks for the internal hemorrhoid to shrink.This is, as I mentioned, by treatment with Rue Care Oil. All other treatment options including Preparation H, which hazel, sitz bath etc didn't help.
