Hemorrhoid cream: not just for hemorrhoids
Hemorrhoid cream: not just for hemorrhoids Comment Subscribe Subscribe
Got hemorrhoids? If not, the cream used to treat them still has plenty of medicinal uses. Items such as Preparation-H (and the equate version) are 
used topically for hemorrhoid issues in order to shrink the swollen vessels that contribute to the painful burning and itching. The same cream (not ointment) that allows the vessels to shrink are also great for cellulite, under-eye bags, and healing cuts, to name a few.
Cellulite: An at-home spa treatment can be used over night or for one hour prior to an event, depending on what results you want, where legs are a main event (pool parties, pageants, etc). Slather the cream on problematic cellulite areas and proceed to wrap your legs with plastic wrap. This helps the cream soak into the skin to tighten the surface, and allows your skin to sweat. The result? Smoother legs and up to about 1/2 an inch to decrease off your legs. Disclaimer: make sure to drink plenty of water to prevent dehydration… I know from experience. Also, make sure you wash it off once the wrap is complete or you will smell like fish (shark oil is an ingredient).
Under-eye bags: For years, models have been using hemorrhoid cream to treat under-eye bags to decrease morning puffiness. To use this way, rub some of the cream into the skin under the eye where puffiness is prominent. Make sure to not get it in your eyes. Leave on for no more than 20 minutes and wash off. The area should be noticeably less puffy.
Cuts and acne: The cream should not be placed on a fresh, bleeding cut; however, when placed on an area that has redness and inflammation from a laceration or bruise the cream greatly speeds up the healing process. When placed on a swollen acne blemish, the swelling decreases. It does not help redness, but swelling will be greatly reduced.
