If you see blood when you have a bowel movement, you should consult doctor because it might be a case of internal hemorrhoid. Internal hemorrhoid treatment is necessary otherwise it might become strangulated hemorrhoids.

External hemorrhoids are visible and can be felt outside. These are very uncomfortable. Normally external pile can itch and painful. In acute condition, you might not sit properly. You might develop thrombosed hemorrhoids if a blood clot develops. Thrombosed hemorrhoids bleed a lot and require surgery to repair.

External hemorrhoid treatment includes hemorrhoid cream, ointment, warm baths, witch hazel, or another soothing remedy. Mild internal hemorrhoids can be treated with suppositories of hemorrhoid cream, witch hazel, and possibly by taking a supplement.  You can also take laser based operation as it is less painful.

Finding the right kind of hemorrhoid treatment depends on types of piles you have. Several invasive treatments for thrombosed, prolapsed, and strangulated hemorrhoids are also available. These include rubber band ligation, hemorrhoid surgery, and laser coagulation (an electric current being delivered to the area, shutting down the blood supply to the hemorrhoid).
