Seymour Wells has suffered from hemorrhoids.He
understands the attitude of many sufferers who do not want to discuss this
affliction because they feel embarrassed or think that their friends might
think less of anyone who develops this actually very common
ailment.
They
probably don’t realize that many of the people they know well either have
hemorrhoids or may have suffered themselves at some time in their
lives.
Many
people don’t like to even discuss the ailment with their Doctor because of
embarrassment or fear of the treatment which they might have to
undergo.
But, Seymour says that a
full discussion with your medical advisor is the first and most important
step in minimizing the pain and other effects of hemorrhoids. It also is
the first step to recovery.
He says
that we must ignore the myths and rumors about hemorrhoids and “secret”
hemorrhoid cures because there is currently no specific
cure.
But,
many patients can look forward to a full recovery from hemorrhoids and the
prognosis is improving as new drugs and procedures are developed and
tested.
Seymour has tried to give a broad
picture of the current state of hemorrhoid treatment and the best methods
of coping with their effects.
He has also
included information about some natural methods but emphasizes that no-one
should self-medicate without first consulting their
Doctor.
