Are you suffering from those swollen external hemorrhoids? Being a professional Automobile Auctioneer sitting and standing for hours, I too suffered in this area for about 8 months with this problem. I too experienced all the symptoms that you are probably experiencing right now! The itching, bleeding and swollen external hemorrhoids! The fear of having to endure a 2 hour business meeting, a 2 hour flight with a delay or having to work on your feet for hours with this problem in the back of your mind, praying that the problem would not start to itch, bleed or just be uncomfortable. Well I had enough of this problem, I needed help, so I went to the doctor 2 times and even asked about surgery. It wasn't until about June of 2013 that I went to the Doctor with my wife and I asked the Doctor about surgery again and he stated "NO" could leave scar tissue and you would be worse off then! Then he shared with me a simple all natural way to correct my problem. So I tried what he had suggested and in about 2 weeks my problem with those hemorrhoids was gone! Amazing how a couple little things from your local drug store could fix this problem I had for 8 months. Now I am back to my regular daily activities!
