If you have a thrombosed external hemorrhoid products such as Anusol and Prparation H may shrink the hemorrhoid some but you really should go to your doctor and explore the possibility of ligation which is a painless and quick procedure which simply involves choking the hemorrhoid with a tight rubber band reducing the blood flow until the hemorrhoid falls off itself.

If you have a thrombosed external hemorrhoid then go to your doctor as Anusol will not be an effective treatment as it merely deals with the symptoms of the problem and  not the underlying cause.
