How to treat piles

Piles can be treated at home in a few easy steps.

Start by drinking lots of fluid and eat plenty of fibre to keep your poo soft and make sure you wipe your bottom with damp toilet paper

Take paracetamol if piles hurt or take a warm bath to ease itching and pain.

While constipated, do not take painkillers that contain codeine, as they cause constipation.

You should not take ibuprofen if your piles are bleeding.

Use an ice pack wrapped in a towel to ease discomfort and do not wipe your bottom too hard after you poo.

Never ignore the urge to poo but also don’t push too hard when you’re on the toilet if it won’t come out and don’t spend more time than you need to on the toilet.

Gently push a pile back inside and always keep your bottom clean and dry.
