How often should I apply ointment

I have hemorrhoids but it sounds like I'm lucky...mine hurt but not all that much and the stuff at the drugstore helps. I'ts just a nuisance applying 3-4 times a day. I know the box says up to four times, but I was just wondering how often other people apply the ointment (or use the wipes, I bought both).

Cheers

Hi and welcome. If you want them to clear faster then see your doctor. They make a 2.5% cortizone cream that is very effective in reducing inflamation and itcheyness
