17. Wear Loose-Fitting Clothing

Tight clothing, especially synthetic fabrics, can trap heat and moisture, making hemorrhoids more uncomfortable. Switching to loose-fitting clothes and breathable cotton underwear can help keep the area dry and reduce friction throughout the day.

Natural fibers allow better airflow, which supports healing and prevents irritation from getting worse. It’s a small wardrobe shift that can make a noticeable difference.

When comfort’s the goal, softer and looser usually wins.

A person wearing loose-fitting gray sweatpants and white sneakers walks on an outdoor track. Loose clothing helps reduce friction and keeps the area dry, offering relief from hemorrhoid discomfort.
