Self-care measures

  • Increase your fiber intake to soften stools and reduce straining during bowel movements.
  • Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and prevent constipation.
  • Avoid straining during bowel movements.
  • Clean the area gently with warm water after a bowel movement to reduce irritation.
  • Use over-the-counter creams or ointments to relieve pain and itching.

    • Medical treatment

  • For hemorrhoids, your doctor may recommend topical medications or a procedure to remove them.
  • For anal fissures, your doctor may recommend a topical cream to relax the sphincter muscle and promote healing.
  • For diverticulitis, your doctor may prescribe antibiotics to treat the infection and may recommend a low-fiber diet to allow the colon to heal.
