Does hydrotopic cream (Ingredients Hydrocortisone 1% w/w) help with external hemorrhoids? Home treatments?
I have external hemorrhoids and they are there for already 4 days. I found this Hydrotopic cream which is made of Hydrocortisone 1% w/w . I’ve seen that Hydrocortisone can help in Hemorrhoids. But this hydrotopic cream that I have wasnt bought for treating Hemorrhoids though. It was used for the face before. Can I apply this ? Will it help or will it make it worse?
And I’ve heard that hot sit baths can help, are there any other ways to remove external hemorrhoids from treatment at home?

Use a proper hemmorhoid cream, such as Preparation H or Anusol. Sitz baths help—several per day. Ice also helps the swelling go down a lot—put an ice cube in a plastic bag, then in a towel. Ice for 10 min at a time, several times per day. If you can take one full day off work/school to do these things, plus to lie down as much as possible, you can dramatically improve the hemorrhoid.
Verify that its main active ingredient is Hydrocortisone 1%. If yes, then also check the inactive ingredients to make sure you are not allergic to any.
You can use hydrocortisone cream externally for hemorrhoids.
i probably wouldn’t use that stuff, go to the store and but the RIGHT product made to treat hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoidal ointment has mineral oil, petrolatum, phenylephrine, shark liver oil, beeswax, benzoic acid, BHA, corn oil, glycerin, lanolin, lanolin alcohol, methylparaben, propylparaben, thyme oil, tocopherol and water in it. Does the stuff you found have all these ingredients?? I don’t think it does, the only thing that cream you have will prevent itching. It wont take care of the hemorrhoids, and they will get worse…and who wants to have them surgically removed!
Hydrocortisone cream is good for assisting the skin to heal, however, prolonged use will cause skin to weaken and with haemorrhoids you don’t need weak skin, use for two weeks consecutive should be sufficient. Hope this helps. As a fellow sufferer I definitely feel for you.
