I've been using HC Pramoxine 1-1% Cream for the past week to treat some discomfort from hemorrhoids. The cream has been effective in numbing the area and reducing itching, but I'm a bit worried about the potential side effects. Has anyone else experienced any of the severe side effects like allergic reactions or signs of a weak adrenal gland? I'm also curious about how long it typically takes for the cream to start working. Any insights or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

After undergoing multiple courses of Hydrocortisone Ace 30mg suppositories for severe hemorrhoids, I've become increasingly concerned about the potential side effects. I've been living in fear of encountering any of these severe issues such as bleeding or infection. I'm curious to know if anyone has experienced any of these adverse reactions, and if so, how they managed and/or treated them after experiencing them. I’ve read the list of possible side effects, but real-life experiences can be a lot more reassuring. If anyone has any insights or advice, it would be greatly appreciated.

I was recently prescribed Proctocort 1% Cream for some persistent hemorrhoids, and I have to say, it's been a bit of a rollercoaster. The cream has definitely helped with the swelling and itching, but I've also experienced some side effects like burning and stinging. After doing some research, I found out that these are not uncommon, but I'm still a bit worried about the more serious side effects mentioned in the medication guide. Has anyone else had a similar experience with Proctocort? How did you handle the side effects, and did you end up taking any additional precautions? I'm curious to hear other people's experiences and any advice they might have.
