hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoids. It’s a secret nobody would not like to share. Even for those who have been suffering the pain down there. That’s why most of us would succumb to over the counter ointments for instant pain relief. What if you have hemorrhoids?
Well, they are effective but that’s what they provide instant pain relief and unfortunately, it’s temporary. Over the counter ointments or drugs for hemorrhoids treatment are truly effective but have a also the potential to create side effects that we don’t like. Examples of which are itching and burning sensation not only in the anal area but also on the sensitive genital parts.
