Hemorrhoid treatment

Hello, I am 20 years old,  few months ago, due to the excessive straining during a bowel movement I developed a lump which was around anal skin, after few days it went away, but every time during a bowel movement, it pops out for maybe a minute and then pops in again. It is completely painless, no bleeding and unnoticable without touching it.Are there any home treatments that I can apply to cure it? Thanks!

Home Remedies for the Treatment of Hemorrhoids:

1) Warm water relaxes the sphincter muscle, which can help soothe the pain associated with hemorrhoid protrusions.

    Fill your bath with three to four inches of warm water.
    Don't add anything to the water.
    Sit in the tub for 15 minutes.
    Repeat this several times a day.

When hemorrhoids are sore, sitz baths are the best and easiest way to get quick relief.

2) Studies have shown that Petroleum Jelly and/or Zinc Oxide work as well as other expensive creams. To reduce the pain and swelling of hemorrhoids either or both can be used.

    After wiping, dab a small amount of Petroleum Jelly or Zinc Oxide on a cotton ball and apply to the swollen area.
    Keep the swollen area dry and clean. Make sure not to use any scented toilet paper, soap or body wash containing chemicals that can irritate the skin.

3) The most common cause of hemorrhoids is a low-fiber diet, which causes constipation and leads to small and hard stools that are difficult to pass. Psyllium seeds are high in fiber and help make the stool softer and easier to pass. Psyllium seeds help prevent hemorrhoids and also make bowel movement less painful. It is recommended to make Psyllium fiber part of your diet. It can easily be found at most herbal nutrition stores.

    Start taking one teaspoon of Psyllium seeds in an 8 ounce glass of water in the morning as part of your breakfast for a week.
    In the second week add another glass with your lunch.
    Slowly during your third week make it a habit of drinking psyllium seeds three times daily.

When you are taking psyllium seeds 3 times daily, you don't need to take any other fiber supplement. Make sure you drink lots of water when taking psyllium or any other type of fiber or fiber supplements because fiber creates large, soft stools by absorbing water. It is recommended to drink 1/2 ounce of water for each pound you weigh.
