Abstract
The present invention provides a non-surgical method for treating prolapsed hemorrhoids. The first step is to clean the anus and surrounding areas, preferably with soap and warm water. The second step is to apply a powder that increases friction and dries the surface of the hemorrhoid. The third step is to gently push the prolapsed hemorrhoid back through the anal sphincter. After reinsertion, the drying effect of the powder prevents the hemorrhoid from prolapsing again by sufficiently increasing the friction to prevent passage through the anus. Held internally, the hemorrhoid shrinks, increasing user comfort.
