When you get hot, blood rushes to the surface of your skin to cool down - blood GETS to the surface because your vessel and capillaries dilate to allow as much blood as possible to the surface. Now, imagine your haemorrhoid - which is a an already dilated and sagging blood vessel, warm it up in a hot bath and imagine just how much more it dilates and how much blood rushes to the dilated, sagging vein to cool it down because you've just scalded it in a hot bath!! If you're in any discomfort, get some medical, latex rubber gloves - fill the glove with water and tie a knot and place in the freezer. When frozen, snap off a finger and wrap with a clean piece of cotton - perhaps off some old bedding. The cotton is just to avoid ice burns, but place it between your butt cheeks and be instantly soothed. It REALLY helps to reduce the swelling and to divert blood flow to other areas to 'warm up'back up... I had haemorrhoids AND varicose veins in my vulva after childbirth, both afflictions gone within the week :)
