Germoloids
Haemorrhoids are triggered by constipation in almost one in two sufferers, says Bayer. The Germoloids range, which includes suppositories, ointment, cream and a spray, contains a local anaesthetic that has a cooling effect to numb the pain caused by haemorrhoids at the site of irritation. The range is designed to relieve anal itching and helps shrink piles, easing bowel movements and providing effective relief from discomfort, says the company.
