START BEING A FRUIT LOVER:
If you are not a fruits lover then start being a fruits lover. Fruits help to moisten your stool which is effective for your hemorrhoids. And try to eat the skin of the fruit too as like apple, pears etc. My best suggestion is that you must have papayas. Papayas has some soothing representative which will ease your bowel movement.

Try to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. If you drink more than 8 glasses then it is even better for yourself. Water helps to keep your colon area soft and clammy.

VEGETABLES WITH FIBER:
Try to have vegetables which are high in fiber. Fiber will moisten your stool and it will be helpful for your colon. You can have fruits and vegetables like beans, green leafs, avocados (very effective), artichokes, broccoli etc.
HEAVY LIFTING:
Try to avoid lifting heavy things. It is not obliging for a hemorrhoids patient.
WALK EVERY HOUR:
Walk every hour only for 5-8 minutes. Then it will not directly affect the rectum. But if you are unable to walking then try to stand for a while.
Remember it is essential to stay active if you are facing hemorrhoids issues. Add jogging or walking in your daily list. No need to be so extravagant by admitting yourself in the gym. You need to just add 30minutes of walking in your daily activities which will ultimately give you a greater outcome.
