ABSTRACT:
A hemorrhoid inflammation reducing device is disclosed. The device has a hollow flexible housing that is shaped to be inserted into and removed from the anus of the rectum of a person having internal/external hemorrhoids. The housing has an enlarged head portion to fit into the rectum, a reduced neck portion that extends from the head portion so that the neck portion can bear against the internal/external hemorrhoids, and an oversized body portion which extends from the neck portion so that the body portion can stick out from the anus allowing the person to grip the body portion for insertion into and removal from the anus of the rectum. A coolant is disposed within the housing for shrinking the internal/external hemorrhoids. A closure is provided for sealing the coolant within the housing after the coolant is placed within the housing. The closure has a pair of handle-like extensions and an aperture formed in the distal end of the body portion opposite the neck portion of the housing. The extensions are tied together sealing the coolant in the housing. The extensions are initially untied to allow the coolant to be initially filled through the aperture contained in the housing when first using the device.
