Applying cream for piles is a straightforward process that can help alleviate discomfort and promote healing. By following these steps, you can effectively apply the cream for optimal relief:
Before you begin, ensure your hands are clean by washing them thoroughly with soap and water. Maintaining good hand hygiene is essential to prevent any potential infections. Start by gently cleansing the affected area around the anus using water and mild soap. Pat the area dry with a clean, soft towel. This step helps ensure cleanliness and prepares the skin for the application of the cream. Next, retrieve a small amount of the ointment onto your fingertip or use the applicator provided with the medication. It's important to use an appropriate amount as directed by your healthcare professional or the instructions on the packaging.
With the ointment on your fingertip or applicator, carefully apply it directly to the affected area around the anus. Make sure to cover the entire area, applying a gentle and even layer of the cream. To aid in absorption, gently massage the cream into the skin using a circular motion. This technique helps the active ingredients penetrate the affected tissues, promoting relief and healing. Once you have completed the application, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water to remove any residue.
