Hemorrhoids are a disease related to the anal veins. To reduce symptoms and limit recurrence, you should eat a healthy and nutritious diet.

Here are the foods to eat and not to eat when you have hemorrhoids:

Should eat:
Foods rich in fiber: Like green vegetables, fresh fruits, whole grains, seeds, beans and bean products. Fiber helps to strengthen stools and reduce pressure on the anal veins.
Water: Drink enough water to keep stools soft and easy to pass through the intestines.
- Antioxidant functional foods: Like fruits containing vitamin C, green vegetables, red and dark fruits.

Do not eat:
High-fat foods: Such as red meat, fast food, fried foods, and junk food can increase pressure on the anal veins and increase the symptoms of hemorrhoids.
Irritant foods: Like coffee, alcohol, and foods containing cayenne or chili peppers, these can irritate anal veins and increase symptoms of hemorrhoids.
Foods containing sugar: Reduce consumption of foods containing sugar to avoid defects.

In addition, you should avoid prolonged sitting and exercise regularly to reduce pressure on the anal veins. If your hemorrhoid symptoms do not subside after making changes to your diet and lifestyle, consult your doctor for an examination and treatment.
