description Introduction. The use of traditional anti-inflammatory and local anesthetic preparations during the non-surgical treatment of acute hemorrhoids is liable to cause the progression of serious side effects in patients.Purpose of the study. To evaluate the clinical efficacy of homeopathic ointment as the topical preparation in the complex treatment of patients with acute hemorrhoids on the outpatient settings.Materials and methods. The comparative analysis of the results of the non-surgical treatment was conducted and applied to 48 patients with acute hemorrhoids of 1–3 degrees, who were divided into two groups. In 23 patients (control group), traditional non-surgical treatment was conducted without the use of topical preparations. In 25 patients (the main group), traditional preparation therapy was supplemented with local treatment using homeopathic ointment.Results. In the patients of the main group, a faster regression of pain syndrome and other manifestations of the disease (itching, burning and discomfort in the anal canal, perianal edema) was noted in the dynamics of treatment, and higher values of quality of life parameters were recorded than in patients of the control group. In the main group, good and satisfactory treatment results were obtained in 23 (92.0%) patients, unsatisfactory – in 2 (8.0%) patients. In the control group, good and satisfactory treatment results were observed in 18 (78.3%) patients, unsatisfactory results – in 5 (21.7%) patients.Discussion. The maximum therapeutic effect with topical application of ointment was observed in patients with acute hemorrhoids of 2–3 degrees, the disease in which proceeded with a pronounced inflammatory-allergic component.Conclusion. Our results allow us to consider homeopathic ointment as an alternative topical preparation in the non-surgical treatment of acute hemorrhoids in outpatient settings in patients with serious contraindications to the use of traditional topical preparations.
