Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.
As suggested earlier, a digital rectal examination / anoproctoscopy should be done to confirm whether your hemorrhoids.
Hemorrhoids of lesser severity does not require surgery and will resolve with good bowel movements. You need to take high fiber diet and drink enough fluids which will ease bowel movements and help resolve hemorrhoids of lesser severity.
Ansol is just to provide relief from symptoms like irritation and itching in that part. But for complete relief, good bowel movement is important.
But as suggested , first you need to confirm whether you have hemorrhoids.

Dr.R.K.
