How to Reduce Itching and Burning with Hemorrhoids: Tips and Topical Remedies

Anorectal gel is a topical product applied to the skin around the anus to reduce itching, burning, and irritation — common symptoms that accompany hemorrhoids.
This article explains why these sensations occur, how to relieve them at home, and which products help maintain comfort every day.

Why Itching and Burning Occur with Hemorrhoids

Itching and burning are common symptoms of hemorrhoids caused by skin irritation, microcracks, or swelling in the anal area.
Possible causes include:

• increased moisture or friction in the irritated zone;
• excessive or insufficient hygiene;
• a sedentary lifestyle that impairs blood circulation;
• unbalanced diet leading to constipation;
• use of harsh cleansing products.

Gentle care, proper hygiene, and regular use of topical anorectal products help prevent flare-ups.

How to Reduce Itching and Burning: Practical Tips

1. Gentle hygiene

After each bowel movement, gently rinse the area with cool water or use alcohol-free wet wipes. Avoid soap or fragranced gels — they can worsen irritation.

2. Comfortable clothing and natural fabrics

Choose cotton underwear — it allows ventilation, prevents chafing, and keeps the area dry. Tight synthetic clothing may aggravate itching.

3. Balanced diet

A diet rich in fiber helps regulate bowel movements and prevent constipation. Include vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and sufficient water intake.

4. Movement and moderate activity

Even short walks or light exercise improve blood circulation in the pelvic area, reducing pressure on the anorectal zone.
