How to help piles go as quickly as possible?

[embarrassingbodyagain]

Since having DS (now 3) I have had bouts of piles.

Pregnant again and after a bout of food poisoning I have piles again.

How can I help them disappear as quickly as possible, they're a bit uncomfortable and the knowledge that I have them makes me feel gross (which is a bit silly really).

I am drinking loads of water and back to eating normal food again with plenty of fruit/veg/fibre etc. Using lashings of anusol.

Any magic tips?!

What works for me:

3 x baths a day. Especially straight after a bowel movement.

Lots of people recommend ice but I find warm water helps best.

Warm water to drink.

Feet on a step when you do a poo.
