Yes it can. Peel and slice a raw potato the way you would when making french fries. Take this finger sized potato and insert it overnight as a suppository.


You could also keep the potato piece submerged in water in the refrigerator and insert it rectally the next night. This is an inexpensive way to get great relief for swollen and itching hemorrhoids.

Another way to use raw potato is to grate one medium potato, mix in 2-3 tsps of slipper elm powder or flaxseed powder.


Form into small patty and apply to affected area for 10-15 mins for about 3 times a day.
