When using the raw potato method for hemorrhoids, (trying to put this eloquently…), what happens the next morning? Do you have to retrieve the potato?? And what is it about the potato that reduces swelling? Is it just cooling? And will this get rid of the hemorrhoids or is it more for comfort and the “butt-ups” are what will relieve the hemorrhoids? Thanks!!

It is eliminated when you defecate, it acts as a local anti-inflammatory and no it helps relieve the swelling and pain, it does not get rid of hemorrhoids
