Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. There are tablets like sitcom and daflon for treating hemorrhoids. But these tablets alone wont be helpful in most cases. You have to take stool softeners and hemorrhoid ointments containing hydrocortisone and anesthetic.

Sitccom is given once a day for 2 weeks.
If daflon then 6 tablets daily for 4 days followed by 4 tablets daily for next 3 days.
You can also do sits bath, apply hemorrhoid ointments like proctosedyl and take non habit forming stool softeners like softovac.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
