Water can be very soothing to inflamed, painful and itchy hemorrhoids. You may get relief from applying cold compresses or soaking your rectal area in warm water for about 10 minutes several times a day. A sitz bath, which fits over the toilet for this purpose, is a product sold at most pharmacies.
Many people find that wiping gently with moist towelettes, instead of toilet paper, is beneficial and convenient.
