Regards
[|AI|]  HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor The use of a high fiber diet and a lot of water would help to reduce the frequency of acute hemorrhoidal episodes, so you should continue to do this. If you are not able to use enough fiber in your diet then you may also want to consider a fiber supplement such as Metamucil, benefited or citrucelIf there is a cut in the anal region then you can apply the antiseptic cream to the area. The use of a mild steroid cream as well may help to reduce any inflammation and discomfort associated with the hemorrhoids. When acute hemorrhoidal episodes occur, you can also try site baths. These would reduce the swelling and pain as well. I hope this helps
