Hemorrhoids range from being a mild annoyance to a serious affliction.
They have also been known to affect the lives of as many as fifty percent of people.
The treatments options from home and at the doctor's office are vast in number, but you may be wondering whether or not hemorrhoids will go away on their own.
The answer to this question is that it depends.
Are you a first time sufferer or a chronic sufferer of hemorrhoids? Is this a mild case or a severe case of hemorrhoids? A mild case actually does have chance of being healed on its own.
There are certain things you can do to your diet alone to help along this process.
Then you may never need to turn to the over-the-counter treatments or more painful procedures that are a possibility when hemorrhoids get more severe.
The most important two diet changes that you can make to help cure mild hemorrhoids are to drink enough water and to increase the amount of fiber in your diet.
When you drink enough water you not only keep your body healthy and hydrated, you have a smaller chance of suffering from constipation.
Since constipation is a main cause and can aggravate hemorrhoids if you can keep it from coming than your hemorrhoids may heal and not come back.
Fiber in your diet will make your stool easier to pass.
Increasing fiber could be as simple as adding fleshy fruits to your diet or bran cereal in the morning.
Sometimes these changes might not be enough to help with your hemorrhoids and in these cases your hemorrhoids will not go away on their own.
However, it should be noted that you do not need to resort to painful treatments.
There are still natural remedies that you can consider to help heal your hemorrhoids permanently.
Please do not let your hemorrhoid problem go untreated if you are still suffering from pain.
