So, here’s my experience. I’ve actually gone through external hemorrhoid surgery twice now, and man, it hurts. I tried doing everything by the book—avoiding sitting on cold surfaces, staying away from spicy food, you name it. But it turns out the issue was actually linked to high stomach acid, which just gets worse whenever I’m stressed out. I mean, I could probably be a total pushover at this point. I tried taking Pilex tablets, but they didn't really do much for me; the symptoms just kept coming back. I also went through about a hundred different types of creams and ointments, but nothing seemed to stick. Then, my wife heard about this natural remedy. She takes a spoonful of lard and mixes it with five to eight calendula flowers—they can be fresh or dried—and lets it simmer gently for maybe an hour or two. Once it's pressed and cooled down, you just apply it to the painful area, and it works wonders. I even went out and bought 20kg of beeswax! She would melt it all together until it had the consistency of a store-bought cream. For me, it worked perfectly. It’s been three years now and I haven't had any issues. Thank God. I’m just happy if this helps anyone else out there. (Thank you, dear, and may the angels watch over you)
