PLEASE tell me how to get rid of external piles

I've had them for years. They don't bleed or itch, they don't cause discomfort. They just look fucking awful; my bumhole is barely visible because I have these "blueberries" round the edge of it. It's so unsightly and really getting me down! I had no idea how bad it looks till I looked in a mirror. I have been applying witch hazel but doesn't seem to be shrinking them. I got some anusol cream too. Everything seems more geared around internal piles or ones that are bleeding / itching etc. And mine aren't.
Will I have to get surgery on them? It would only be cosmetic really. I am not constipated but I was when pregnant, and I had dreadfully long labours with all of my pregnancies. However my youngest is now 3!

There isn't any way to get rid of them without surgery. Creams etc only shrink them temporarily. Personally I'd get the surgery - they might not be bothering you now, but in the future they could cause problems. Good luck.
