There are a number of different foods capable of treating hemorrhoids and the unfavorable symptoms they carry which go far beyond eating a good hemorrhoids diet. Use garlic or onion to help decrease swelling and eliminate bacteria. Remove a portion of the garlic or onion—preferably the surface and then slide it into the rectum. This aids bowel elimination, in addition to bacteria and diminishes inflammation. This method is not advised if hemorrhoids are bleeding.

Another alternative is lemon juice. Cut the lemon into fours, but don’t remove the peel. Boil the lemon pieces for about 15 minutes in a liter of water. Drinking one cup of the lemon blend everyday will help soften the stool and avoid constipation. In addition, the juice builds up the blood vessels and capillary vessels.

Another option is potato suppositories. Peel the skin off of the potato and slice it into small pieces shaped like a cone. Place the potato inside your rectum three times a week, just like you would insert a suppository. This will lessen the pain and support healthier bowels.
