Re: I've got one! Ouch.

Someone suggested dabbing it with cider vinegar (which stings) but it takes away the pain. Also, applying vit E topically, just get a capsule, prick it with a pin and smear the offending rhoid with it.

I had a sitz bath with Epsom Salts and yarrow and calendula tea. Not really hot, but warm enough. Seemed to help a bit.

Apparently you have to do all the same sorts of stuff you would for varicose veins. I'm drinking half a teaspoon of cayenne in hot water every morning. ...you get used to it. Also ordered an enema bag for 'evacuation' without straining, when that would normally be the only way.
