Anusol's three-way action shrinks piles, relieves discomfort and soothes itching, calming irritation and relieving sore, cracked skin — through astringents rather than anaesthetics or steroids. 25g.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow the astringent approach works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eZinc oxide and the bismuth salts tighten and shrink swollen tissue while forming a protective barrier over damaged skin, and balsam Peru soothes. It's a gentler mechanism than a local anaesthetic — less instant, but well tolerated, and it addresses the swelling rather than just masking the feeling of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCleanse the area and pat dry, then apply as directed on the pack — typically at night, in the morning and after each bowel movement. For external use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf symptoms haven't improved within 7 days, see your GP. Rectal bleeding always needs assessing. If the piles are internal rather than external, suppositories will reach them where an ointment cannot.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anusol","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57730069496195,"sku":"0014886","price":4.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1006\/9282\/0355\/files\/61ILyHtKbHL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1787063052","url":"https:\/\/www.stockmymedicine.co.uk\/products\/anusol-ointment","provider":"StockMyMedicine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
