We have heard time and time again: "you are what you eat" and if you've suffered from haemorrhoids, you will understand just how much diet can impact the level of suffering when going to the toilet. A high fibre diet and plenty of water can help to keep bowel movements regular by bulking out and softening the stool, alleviating symptoms of constipation.

At-home remedies such as using a sitz bath and the cooling sensation from an ice pack can provide effective and convenient symptom relief during a piles flare-up. So, what do you do when the unavoidable happens – you have a haemorrhoid flare-up while you’re away from home?

Here at eXroid, we believe the best advocates for our treatment are our patients. Mrs Kennedy tells us her eXroid story of how, before being treated with us, she was struggling to sleep from the pain and pressure her haemorrhoids were causing her. Mrs Kennedy was unable to get treatment via the NHS, as the Covid-19 pandemic cancelled nearly all elective procedures and she chose to take her treatment into her own hands with eXroid. Read her story here, to see how the eXroid treatment has had a transformative impact on her life quality.
