Hello... All pilles creams contain chemicals that decrease local oedema and capillary permiability that in turn shrinks the pile masses and stops bleeding. Local creams are helpful in interoexternal or internal piles... i.e effective on mucosa. If you have interoexternal piles then it will help symptomatically. However in pure external piles ( skin tags) it dsnt help much, although there is no harm in applying.. Regards

Yes. You can. But as this cream composition may cause little itching to the area. Kindly add hot seitz bath with betadine twice daily. If constipation is present, then take a laxative.
