I recently had a pelvic surgery and my hemorrhoids flared up horribly nearly 2 weeks after the surgery. I had never experienced the pain like this. I tried to manage it on my own, with EVERY OTC available, but into the 4th day, after realizing I now had a fissure, I was done. Called my doctor in tears and she prescribed this cream. Within 20 minutes, I noticed a huge decrease in pain and swelling....

You never know the full value of anusol until you get to use the suppository. The ass relaxed for me in two days like an electric car. No itching , no pain, and best of all , my poop is no longer pencil thick. It's adult poop from an adult man.

Honestly , I almost went crazy with the itch. Hardest on me during sleep but also occasionally very intense during day working hours. Took me only 4 days to shrink the piles and now it's only occasional and very mild.

Just wanted to add... absolutely follow the instructions... I know it goes without saying, and I am a grown adult who should know better. However, in my desperation, I used 3 suppositories at once. As they began to melt, they actually leaked out. I did not feel a thing - they are so gentle - and had leaked through my clothing. I am certain that this would not have happened if I had properly followed the instructions! So - be patient!

I've never experienced a hemorrhoid in my life until I took a medication that drastically decrease bowel function and stool hardness resulting in getting one. This was the first one I picked off the shelf and I'm seriously regretting it. This ointment burns so bad when applied, I do not understand what this is suppose to achieve. After immediately doing some research on Anusol, it appears that this is a very common report amongst its users. I'm sitting here now feeling much better just because the burning pain has subsided, but this ointment did do '$**t'! Avoid!Read More Read Less

Packaging too difficult to open - esp for elderly users.
