My husband has hemorrhoids and they are very swollen, no bleeding but real swollen and he is constipated. He has recently finished up rounds of chemotherapy and radiation (head neck cancer) and I believe all the medications have caused this constipation. I have given him a mix of milk of magnesia and Prune Juice which seemed to loosen up the stools enough to clear out a little bit of stool.

We have some Desoximetasone Cream USP, .025% that he used on an allergic reaction to shot he was getting for radiation. I have read on the internet that a cortisone cream would help with hemorrhoid's. Could I use this cream on his hemorrhoid's? Right now I am using the preparation H cream and suppositories and a cold ice pack applied directly to the hemorrhoid's.

Thank You for your help.
