    Looked it up? You could have any number of conditions, some of which are more serious. If you can actually feel hemorrhoids or have someone look, then start with some OTC cream, such as Preparation H, or a bottle of witch hazel. If they get worse, then there is a very easy day surgery that is done in minutes and you just have to pad your underwear for a few days, eat lightly, eat enough fiber, and drink lots of fluids.

    Hemorrhoids is just one of dozens of reasons, I am glad you properly examined the area and saw and felt the hemorrhoids.

    Yes, depending on how bad the hemmorrhoids are, can depend on treatment, some camphor to the cream ( will burn seriously) but helps cure faster) but yes many creams at the store for that

    And next step is doctor if that does not cure it up quickly.
