Piles (Haemorrhoids)

Soothe the itching, discomfort and swelling of haemorrhoids.

Piles (Haemorrhoids)

Piles (haemorrhoids) are swollen blood vessels in and around the bottom. They can cause itching, soreness, a lump, and bright red blood when you poo. They're very common — often brought on by constipation and straining — and most settle down within a few days with simple treatment at home.

Piles (Haemorrhoids) — your questions, answered

How are piles treated?
Soothing creams and suppositories such as Anusol ease the itching and discomfort while piles heal. Just as important is keeping your poo soft so you don't strain — Fybogel adds gentle fibre and Dioctyl softens hard stools. Our pharmacist can put together the right combination for you and your symptoms.
How can I stop piles coming back?
Keep your poo soft and easy to pass: eat plenty of fibre, drink lots of fluids, and don't put off going to the toilet when you feel the urge. Avoid straining, and don't sit on the toilet longer than you need. If constipation is the root cause, treat that too — see our constipation page.
When should I see a GP about piles?
See your GP if there's no improvement after seven days of home treatment, piles keep coming back, or they're very painful. Always get bleeding from the bottom checked — especially if the blood is dark or mixed in with your poo — so anything more serious can be ruled out.

Information only — always read the patient leaflet and ask our pharmacist if you're unsure. Prescription treatments are supplied only after a consultation and our pharmacist's approval.
