 ==Overview==

+The secondary preventive measures for hemorrhoids are similar to its [[Hemorrhoids primary prevention|primary preventive measures]].
-==Prevention==
-Prevention of hemorrhoids includes drinking more fluids, eating more [[dietary fiber]] (such as fiber supplements, fruits and vegetables, and cereals high in fiber), exercising, practicing better posture, and reducing bowel movement strain and time. Hemorrhoid sufferers should avoid using [[laxatives]] and should strictly limit time straining during bowel movement. Wearing tight clothing and underwear will also contribute to irritation and poor muscle tone in the region and promote hemorrhoid development. Some sufferers report a more comfortable experience without underwear or wearing only very lightweight panties, etc.
-Fluids emitted by the intestinal tract may contain irritants that may increase the fissures associated with hemorrhoids. Washing the anus with cool water and soap may reduce the swelling and increase blood supply for quicker healing and may remove irritating fluid.
+==Secondary Prevention==
+The secondary preventive measures for hemorrhoids are similar to its [[Hemorrhoids primary prevention|primary preventive measures]].
-[[Kegel exercise]]s for the pelvic floor may also prove helpful.
-Many people do not get a sufficient supply of dietary fiber (20 to 25 grams daily) and small changes in a person's daily diet can help tremendously in both prevention and treatment of hemorrhoids.
