Home Remedies for Hemorrhoids

Sitz Bath with Cypress

Cypress contains ingredients that have an antimicrobial and calming effect that will aid in controlling pain and regress hemorrhoids.

Ingredients

  • Bowl of boiling water;
  • 8 drops of cypress essential oil.

How to prepare

Drops of cypress essential oil should be placed in hot water and mixed well. When the water temperature is pleasant, you should sit in the basin and stay for at least 15 minutes, and allow the mixture to do the work.

Another choice is to add 2 or 3 drops of this essential oil to another vegetable oil, e.g. sweet almond oil and use it directly on the area of infection. The oil should, however, not be used directly on the skin because it can cause burning.
