  I can imagine it’s pretty horrendous having a bunch of swollen blood vessels in your asshole, also known as haemorrhoids. There are a whole load of treatments available for those who do suffer with it. However, as with most afflictions, people still try to find cheaper home remedy’s to sort the problem out. Which brings me to the new haemorrhoid ‘cure’ brought to you by some random from the Internet.
  
  
   
  The remedy involves sticking frozen potatoes up your ass, and surprisingly, people are actually attempting it. Here’s what one advocate had to say: 
   
  

  Quote:Here’s what you need to do: Peel a raw potato and cut into thin slices, like you do it for French fries. 
  Put the slices into the freezer and wait until they are frozen.
  Insert the frozen potato slice in your anus and leave it inside for 30 seconds.
  Repeat the process for three to five days.
  The next three to five days leave the slice inside for 30 seconds more each time.
  The potatoes have astringent properties and help relieve the pain and itchy sensation which usually happens with this condition, while the ice cold potato constricts the blood vessels, reduces the swelling and relieves your pain instantly.

   
  
   
  I mean it does sound like it’d work tbf, but I think I’d still rather use some cream designed for this particular ailment. A doctor later waded I’m on the matter and labelled the remedy as complete and utter bollocks. Here’s what Dr Diana Gall had to say about it: 
   
  

  Quote:Piles can be an irritating condition and sufferers are sometimes too embarrassed to get professional help, turning to old wives’ tales instead. 
  
  There is no medical evidence that putting frozen potatoes inside the anus can help cure piles, so I would urge caution to anyone thinking of doing it.
  
  Piles often go away on their own after a few days, but there are some tried and trusted ways to keep them at bay. You should drink plenty of fluids and maintain a fibre-rich diet and try having regular warm baths to ease itching and pain.
  
  If home treatments do not banish your piles, it is advised to go to your doctor and explore alternative treatments
