A local anaesthetic numbs the pain and halts the itching while the cream gets to work shrinking down the haemorrhoid. What makes Germoloids stand out from our other recommendations is that it’s suitable for treating external and internal piles and even comes with a handy nozzle for easy application. Let’s talk about haemorrhoids (or piles, if you prefer). They have long been the punchline of many a bad joke, but as sufferers will tell you, haemorrhoids are no laughing matter. In fact, they are, quite literally, a pain in the bum.
