Hi,
With the question “Can I use cream for grade 3 hemorrhoids? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
With grade 3 hemorrhoids, doctors recommend you to perform hemorrhoid ligation procedure, hemorrhoid sclerotherapy procedures or surgical treatment. In case you do not want to have surgery or procedures, you can use some drugs to help relieve pain and stop bleeding in the acute stage without long-term treatment indications.
In addition, you should maintain a reasonable lifestyle such as eating a lot of fiber, drinking lots of water, limiting alcohol, keeping the anal area clean, ... will be good for hemorrhoids. Topical medicine in hemorrhoids only applies in cases of pain, itching, ... in the anus and has no effect on grade 3 hemorrhoids.
If you still have questions about grade 3 hemorrhoids, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
