The good news is that hemorrhoids can be effectively treated with various natural home remedies.

Alternatively, you can take a small bundle of scent leaves, crush them, and add water to make a paste. You can apply this paste to the affected area. Repeat this process twice daily for relief.
2. Warm Salt Water: To alleviate hemorrhoids, you can mix equal parts of warm water and salt in a bowl. Fill a bowl with warm water, add a pinch of salt, and allow it to dissolve. Use this solution for a sitz bath, where you sit in the warm saltwater for a period. Perform this activity twice a day for relief.
3. Aloe Vera Gel: The application of aloe vera gel can contribute to the healing of hemorrhoids. Apply the gel directly to the affected area for soothing relief.
4. Ice Packs: Applying ice packs or cold packs to the anal area for 15-20 minutes at a time can reduce swelling, especially for large hemorrhoids causing severe pain. Always wrap the ice pack in a cloth or paper towel before applying it to the skin. Never apply frozen items directly to the skin.
