Hemorrhoids & Homeopathy
May 1 2002 Frank King Jr.

10 million people in the United States currently have the problem I recently received a call from a doctor who had just begun using homeopathy in his practice. He was most excited about one of his first cases, where he gave a hemorrhoid formula to a patient who was reluctantly scheduled for a hemorrhoid-ectomy that week. Three days later, the patient returned, tickled to life, claiming his hemorrhoids were healed! A month later, the doctor called me again, totally ecstatic. He shared that, since his first hemorrhoid case, he had seen more hemorrhoid cases than spinal cases. Better yet, he said, "I don't even have to look at them!" He said the referrals had been going through the roof and he felt revived from an all-time low in his 14-year-old practice. The doctor had previously been seeing about 150 patients per week and was now seeing 250 per week. And, best of all, he was really enjoying his practice again, and helping people with a diversity of prob­lems he never thought possible. This doctor inspired me to focus this article on simple ways the chiropractor can safely and effectively manage hemor­rhoids with homeopathy. Hemorrhoids, or fibrovascular cushions, are part of the normal anatomy and physi­ology within the anal canal. They are im­portant in differentiating liquid, solid and gas. They perform important functions in maintaining continence during the pres­ence of increased intrarectal pressure. Also, as an individual coughs, strains or sneezes, the fibrovascular cushions en­gorge and prevent unwanted leakage. It is wise to communicate the value and pur­pose of hemorrhoid tissue as a normal part of anoreetal anatomy and physiology, and their importance in our complex conti­nence mechanisms. Therefore, it is im­portant to know that surgical removal may result in varying degrees of incontinence, which is known to become worse with age. More than half the world's population will develop hemorrhoid problems. Ten million people in the United States cur­rently have the problem. The peak prob­lematic ages range from 45-65 years. The most common symptoms are itching in the anal area, a protruding lump, bright red bleeding during a bowl movement and pain in the localized area. Homeopathic Solutions I lomeopathy provides a fresh, safe, all natural, noninvasive and curative ap­proach for this perplexing problem of hem­orrhoids. The noninvasive more curative approach should always be applied first, by every conscientious physician. A well-formulated homeopathic will address the greater majority of hemor-rhoid related problems. The following is a priority list of gencrically named formu­lations that will address the underlying causes of hemorrhoids. Most homeo­pathic companies offer related products. You, the doctor, can recommend the products that best match your patients' needs. If you want to go beyond the cook, book approach, our reflex response tests, using leg length or muscle test, will give you confirmations as to which products your patient needs and doesn't need. Dosages For acute cases, I recommend taking, orally, at least six-to-eight times per day until significant improvement is experi­enced. Reflex response tests can confirm the specific formulas to use, when to in­crease dosage or decrease dosage, when to stop, and when to restart a formula to maximize curative potential. Topical dosages can also be applied, when appropriate. Patients prefer the oral delivery over the topical. However using the spray delivery, topically, is a highly appreciated advancement. I explain to the patient how homeopa­thy works from the inside out, as well as LIFESTYLE & HEMORRHOIDS "Doijft let your l&throom become your llbrf ry..." Hemorrhoids are commonly a secondary complaint associated with either chronic constipation or diarrhea. Correcting the cause of these problems will help correct the cause of hemorrhoids; i.e., adjust­ing bowel habits, improving eating habits to include appropriate rough­age, increasing fluid intake, elimi­nating food allergies, and adding homeopathic formulas to maximize health in these areas. 1. Certain medications can cause constipation, such as co­ deine, narcotic pain pills, certain high blood pressure medicines and any anti-cholinergic medicines. Excessive cleansing of the anal area with soap can remove the natural oils from this area and increase friction when you move, walk, etc. It is of utmost im­ portance to keep this area naturally lubricated and to add natural oint­ ments when needed. With protruding hemorrhoids, don't use dry, cheaper toilet tissue. Wet tissues with added lo­ tion are best. You may also con-' sider the use of a bidet. Last, but not least, don't let your bathroom become your library. A resent poll identified the bathroom as the most common read­ ing site in the United States. Exces­ sive sitting on the pot can weaken rectal structures! A good rule is, if you haven't any movement in a minute or two, get up, and try again later. Hemorrhoid Diarrhea Artery ■ Constitutional I Constipation Vein Detox & Drainage from the outside in, to bring a greater correction of the prob­lem. If results are not experienced within a few weeks of apply­ing all the related formulas, you should differentially diag­nose or refer to a specialist to rule out other anorectal prob­lems, such as fissures, fistulae or condylomata. In patients with family history ofcolorcctal cancer, a further evaluation including the GI tract, to rule out neoplasia, is mandatory. Hemorrhoids & Pregnancy Use of homeopathy offers the test-of-time assurance of safety and efficacy beyond any other form of health care. Home­opathy is so safe and effective, I say to my pregnant pa­tients that we are actually treating two for the price of one! With homeopathy, the problems or weaknesses you correct with the mother you can be correcting with the unborn in­fant as well. In fact, homeopathy works so gently, and yet so deeply, that even inherited weaknesses can often be cor­rected. Homeopathic treatment can help assure a more posi­tive pregnancy experience.
