Hemorrhoids (Piles) are swollen or inflamed veins in the anus and lower rectum that can be itchy, painful, and potentially cause bleeding during bowel movements.They can be located both externally or internally, and affect about half of adults over the age of 50.

According to the Mayo Clinic, there are two types of hemorrhoids, internal and external.

External hemorrhoids are under the skin around your anus. When irritated, external hemorrhoids can itch or bleed.

Internal hemorrhoids lie inside the rectum. You usually can’t see or feel these hemorrhoids, and they usually don’t cause discomfort.

HOW TO USE APPLE CIDER VINEGAR TO GET RID OF HEMORRHOIDS FAST

Using apple cider vinegar is one of the most popular natural treatments for hemorrhoids.

One logical explanation why this vinegar might work effectively for this condition is because it has astringent properties. These properties help to reduce swelling and due to this swollen veins of hemorrhoids start to shrink.

Depending on the type of piles you have (internal or external), the usage of ACV should be different.

For external hemorrhoids, take a cotton ball and soak it with apple cider vinegar. Apply gently on the infected area. Repeat this process until the inflammation disappears and symptoms resolve.

It might sting a lot but this will help in stopping irritation from stepping in. You should see improvement instantly.

In case you have internal hemorrhoids, you are recommended to drink a teaspoon of vinegar a couple of times a day. In case you don’t like the taste of apple cider vinegar you can add some honey, which will greatly improve the taste.

Consuming a teaspoon of vinegar with water, may provide relief from pain and bleeding.

Note: Remember that you can not just put any brand of apple cider vinegar on the affected area. Look for apple cider vinegar that is as natural as possible. It will make the results better.

It is important to know that there are no scientific studies that would support effectiveness or safety of this remedy.

However since there are many positive testimonials from other people claiming that it helped with this condition and also this vinegar is very cheap you don’t have much to lose either.
