I don’t think so.
Not that I am aware of. Usually external hemorrhoids will respond well to creams, ointments and change in diet. Hope that helps.
To answer your question, no. Rubber bands are used for internal hemorrhoids.
Some diets that you can do is to increase your water and fiber intakes. Taking warm water baths for about 15 mins a day will also help.
I recommend this site which has quite alot of info on hemorrhoids and i personally had bought h miracle which i also found there and it has worked for my wife to get rid of her hemorrhoids. It’s a home based remedy solution that you can use at home. See if you can benefit from it as well.
Hope this helps.
