The nozzle applicator should be used for internal haemorrhoids in order to ease application. The nozzle applicator should be cleaned thoroughly with warm soapy water before and after each use. It should be screwed onto the end of the ointment tube and inserted fully into the back passage.
Then the tube should be squeezed gently from the lower end while simultaneously pulling it out of the back passage. The nozzle applicator should then be unscrewed and washed.
The hands should also be washed thoroughly after application of the ointment.
The area should not be covered with bandages or plasters, or any other dressing. It is safe to cover the area with undergarments and clothes.
