Is it normal to use paper towels as cure for hemorrhoids?

Ever since I was a small child, I have used paper towels as a cure for hemorrhoids. I would take a wad and stuff it between my crack, letting it sit there until my butt felt normal. This has nearly always been successful.

    Sounds more like fissures to me than hemorrhoids. Go see your doctor just to make sure.

    You're not curing anything and this sounds more like a fissure than piles. Get your crack looked at and then get the proper medication. A fissure is fairly easy to cure but pile can take a while and different medications may need to be tried

      +1 for the phrase 'a pile can take a while.'

    • The itching and bleeding would cease after a few hours or so.

        nevertheless go to the doctor just to be sure. good for you that it works, but why do they keep occurring/swelling?

    • Why the sarcasm? It really works when you don't have anything else.

      • You stated in your post that ever since you were a little child you have done this to cure hemorrhoids. I'm sorry I call bull shit. You never reported this to your parents complained to them from pain or anything? So as a young child suffering from hemorrhoids you decide to instead use a paper towel. Again like I said I bet.

        • Where in my post did I say that I didn't complain to my parents? You think everyone has the time/money to go to the doctor? Fuck off.
