Patchouli does not cure hemorrhoids. Patchouli contains alcohol in it, and if the anal skin is not broken, patchouli will have a circulatory effect on the blood vessels of hemorrhoids when used topically. But this effect is also very tiny and has no essential therapeutic effect on the fundamental nature of hemorrhoids. If the skin around the anus is broken, the alcohol in patchouli will have a strong stimulating effect on the skin around the anus, which may lead to edema of the hemorrhoid nucleus and aggravate the symptoms of hemorrhoids, so patchouli is not recommended to be used to treat hemorrhoids. If you have hemorrhoids, it is advisable to visit a regular hospital to clarify the type and severity of the hemorrhoids and then take the appropriate treatment
