For Hemorrhoids "It seemed to work at first and ended up getting a refill and using it for almost a month, but it's been a couple of weeks since my refill ran out and I have blood on the toilet paper again. Maybe it's my own fault for not eating enough fiber while I was using Proctofoam, but still, it's frustrating."

For Hemorrhoids "After struggling for several months with external thrombosed horrible hemorrhoids, I finally got an exam and was prescribed Proctofoam. Within 48 hours, my body was happy. Hemorrhoid gone, no itching or bleeding! So worth the uncomfortable anal exam."

For Hemorrhoids "I have had a bad case of hemorrhoids for 6 months now and have tried everything OTC, even a few trips to the ER! I finally was referred to a general surgeon who said while yes, I have some hemorrhoids, I also have an anal fissure. He prescribed Proctofoam and so far, so good! No pain, no bleeding! My insurance did not cover this, and I had to pay $135, but it has been worth it! When I go back to the doctor in 10 days, I will update my review and rating!"
