Hemorrhoids are a condition of inflamed veins on you rectum and anus. They are caused usually by straining to hard when you are going to the bathroom. Peperation H is not a medical condition, it is an over the counter cream or suppository used to shrink hemorrhoids and kill the burning, itchy pain that hemorrhoids cause. There are prescription strength medicines for hemorrhoids you can get from your doctor if Prep H doesn’t work. Hemorrhoids can also be removed surgically if they get really bad and don’t respond to treatment.
Pinworms are a parasite usually found in children that inhabits your colon and part of your small intestine. The main symptom that they cause is itching around your anus, so it might be confused for hemorrhoids, but a doctor can tell the difference with a visual examination and by taking a sample from you anus and rectum and looking under a microscope for the eggs of the pin worms. Pin worms need to be treated with medications you can only get from a doctor.

Preparation H is for the hemorrhoids. If that doesn’t solve your problems go to your family doc.

Hemorrhoids are just swollen veins in your rectum and anus. They hurt really bad and can be caused by any number of things. Preparation H helps with these but you have to be patient. They also go away on their own. If you want advice on how to not get them, don’t sit down for long periods of time and don’t strain while going to the bathroom. Those are two major causes of them.
