Hemorrhoids are dilated and irritated rectal and anal veins that burn, itch and bleed. The internal hemorrhoids tend to bleed more than the external hemorrhoids and it is the external hemorrhoids that burn and itch. There are fortunately several herbal hemorrhoid creams available that can ease the discomfort and cure the condition. Most herbal hemorrhoid creams help to improve the tone of the veins and make the blood flow easier through the veins.

One herbal hemorrhoids cream is called Neo Healar. It is a combination remedy that claims to return the hemorrhoidal veins to normal size and prevents inflammation of the veins. The preparation contains Lupinus albus, an essential oil that is supposed to be ten thousand times stronger than Vitamin E and at least five thousand times stronger than vitamin C in the repair of the skin overlying the delicate hemorrhoids.

It’s supposed to help in the recovery of the tissues. The cream also contains Vateria indica, which is a bitter resin that has been used for centuries in ancient East Indian preparations for the treatment of hemorrhoids. It has an anti-inflammatory effect and helps to promote the healing process. The next ingredient is peppermint, an herbal ingredient in natural hemorrhoid creams that helps reduce the pain associated with hemorrhoids and helps control the itching. The herbal remedy also contains aloe for healing and pain relief.

Another good herbal hemorrhoids cream is Himalaya Pilex. It is a hemorrhoidal cream that is based on Ayurvedic medicine.

In Germany, a well used herbal hemorrhoids cream is made from the seeds of the fruit of the horse chestnut tree (Aesculus hippocastanum). It is particularly good in any disorder that involves having sluggish circulation and hemorrhoids qualify as having that. It has been used for this purpose for over two hundred years.

There seems to be many good herbal hemorrhoid creams. One such cream is made from the bark and leaves of a woody plant known as Hamamelis virginiana.
