How is it
beneficial? Piles or hemorrhoids are swollen, bulging veins
in and around the anus. It is one of the commonest
anal conditions traditionally associated with low
fiber diet. The common distressing features of Piles
(hemorrhoids) include anal discomfort, pain, bleeding and itching
around the anus. Mucus discharge along with
stool contents (associated with prolapsed internal
piles) tend to deposit on to the perianal area,
causing localized skin reaction or dermatitis leading
to persistent itching and problems in local
hygiene.
Essentially,
ThankGod Pain & Itch Relief Cream™ takes care of each of the
distressing features in Piles (hemorrhoids) to provide
much needed prompt relief in the following way:
Mucus discharge and
itching : Mucus discharge associated with intense
itching and inflammation around the anus is a
troublesome symptom in Piles (hemorrhoids).
Hydrocortisone acetate relieves intense itching and
inflammation in the affected area.
Anal discomfort and
pain : Lignocaine is a local anesthetic which acts
on the nerve endings to relieve pain, anal discomfort
and itching.
Local hygiene :
Problems of local hygiene (due to skin tags, mucus and
fecal leakage) may be quite important in Piles
(hemorrhoids). Chlorhexidine is a wide spectrum nonirritating
antiseptic agent (active against a wide range of
bacterias, viruses and fungi) which is useful in
preventing infections in the anal area.
