ANUICEMedical Device to Treat Internal and External Hemorrhoids, Without The Dramatic Effects of Surgery.

I am what you call a chronic sufferer – someone who is trying to avoid surgery. It is – quite literally – a pain in the butt. So when I found this product, I was both skeptical and open to anything that might make my life a little bit easier. I was also fairly desperate, so I took the chance and purchased Anuice.That was over a year ago. In the time that I have had this – device – I have used it at the first sign of hemorrhoid problems. Each time I have used it, I have avoided the most severe complications – prolapse, severe pain, etc. Within 24 hours, it has typically shrunk back inside and I can go about my life as if it didn't exist. This is a really big deal for someone who experiences chronic problems in this area.Now, in the spirit of disclosure, I am going to be completely upfront and tell you that it is not comfortable or particularly enjoyable to use this device. It is extremely cold and takes a couple of minutes to settle into the feeling that occurs when you have an ice cube up your butt. That just isn't a normal feeling for most of us.But I have found that setting the timer and simply breathing – often doing something distracting like reading or playing on my phone – go a long way in getting through the handful of minutes required for this treatment. It is hands-down easier and less painful than dealing with an angry hemorrhoid for several days at a time.One of the obstacles I faced initially was reconciling the fact that I would use this device multiple times over the course of many months. Despite the fact that it is washable, it just felt unsanitary to me. I addressed this with condoms – I simply slip one onto the device before insertion, add a little bit of lube, and we are ready to go! I often use a latex glove as well – that allows me to easily slip it off and not feel like I am laying there with a dirty hand during treatment.Anuice has not only lessened my suffering, but it has saved me money in the long run because I have not had to spend money on creams and wipes and other products with limited value. It has not cured me of my hemorrhoid problem – and it won't, most likely. Perhaps if my problem were less severe, it would. But it has certainly reduced my symptoms significantly enough that I am willing to post this review despite that I would prefer not having my name attached to a hemorrhoid product that I lovingly refer to as "the icy finger."The short version is that if you suffer from chronic hemorrhoids, Anuice is absolutely worth the price. It has literally changed my life. Anyone with this as a chronic issue will understand what I'm saying. Add some condoms, latex gloves, and your favorite lube to the cart if you are concerned about it being unsanitary.If you are dealing with the first hemorrhoid you have ever experienced, you may not find that you get your money's worth from this product. Don't get me wrong – it will absolutely help quickly heal the problem. Just reconcile the fact that you will spend $40 or so and may never use the device again. Regardless, it will be there in your freezer - waiting, just in case!Update: I can't believe I'm about to admit this, but I have now been using this 'device' for 2 years. I haven't had a serious problem since I began using it. I never thought I would be able to say that... my doctor was talking surgery and I was miserable. This 'icy finger' works... and it holds up over time. As soon as the first sign of symptoms appear, I begin using Anuice and I keep using it for about a day after the last hint of a symptom.I will say that I use a protective barrier between the 'device' and my body. Otherwise I don't think I would continue using it for this long (it is made of plastic and that's porous and just... eww.) I haven't ever gotten anything from this company other than relief from my embarassing problem (and that's enough.) Wishing all of you the same bliss!

$30 for a cold butt plug?One of the more stupidest purchases I made off Amazon...and I've made plenty

This is great!!! I bought this for my husband who has some bad external hemorrhoids. The bleeding was getting bad all of a sudden and limiting his daily life because he could not leave the house! I was very skeptical about this thing making a difference, and especially gambling $40 on something that might not work. I am studying to be a nurse, and even though I don't have experience in hemorrhoids, I understand the "why" behind it. I wanted something that would help, but wouldn't be too invasive and potentially cause more problems. I did a little research and I'll tell you why I bought it:1. One of the methods doctors use to treat hemorrhoids is to freeze them off! But they go in there and use liquid nitrogen which is super cold, something you don't have access to, and wouldn't want to mess with anyway. It instantly freezes it, and the hemorrhoid eventually falls off. It's called "cryotherapy". Google it and read about it. So basically, what you can get out of this is that doctors use a freezing technique which relies on something cold.How does this relate to this product?: Well, it tells you that Anuice at least has some kind of basis that is used by the educated people that treat them. So it's not a total scam like what you might think at first.2. Why would making hemorrhoids cold make them go away or reduce their size? Well, you should know what hemorrhoids are. There are tubes in your body that transport blood. There are 2 kinds: arteries and veins. The arteries job is to bring blood to all of the tissues in the body from your heart. Veins take the used blood back up to your heart and lungs to get more oxygen in it. Then, it goes back to the arteries, then back to the veins, to the heart, then back to the arteries... on and on it's a never ending process.Hemorrhoids are veins located in your anal canal, that passageway the poop goes through when you poop. They are trying to take the blood back up to your heart BUT if the sides get stretched out, they can swell with blood. Think of a nice tube transporting liquid (like a water hose), then the middle of the tube gets stretched out like a balloon. More liquid collects there in that balloon part right? That's exactly what can happen to your veins. That balloon part is a hemorrhoid, and it is filled with a lot of blood. It might even pop out of your anus! Well ,there's a hole there right? Of course its going to pop out if it gets too big. So, we know hemorrhoids are balloons filled with blood.If you make blood cold, it reduces swelling. If you bump your head, you put an ice pack on it and make it cold so it doesn't swell as much. SO if we make the hemorrhoid cold, it will reduce the swelling: it will make the hemorrhoid smaller. That's what you want!3. The reason I chose this $40 one, instead of the $12 one of a different brand is that this one says it is FDA approved. It's safety approved by the government. The other ones don't say if they are. This brand can only get cold to a certain extent. You don't want to damage your hemorrhoid tissue by putting ice on it over and over. I just think of the danger of killing or damaging the tissue, like frostbite. I have no idea whether the other ones control the amount of freezing as well, or if this matters I don't know. But safer is better!Yes, this will feel cold and uncomfortable but it will reduce the swelling and that is the key. You have to do it more than once a day, because it doesn't solve the problem. It just reduces the swelling for a while. It makes the blood colder. If this works for you, you can't get happy and stop using it. Your hemorrhoids will swell back up. Continual use is necessary to get the results you want. Since it's a balloon in a vein that shouldn't be there, you can't fix it only a doctor can. But, you can reduce the size of them and discomfort. My husband loves it!

Easy to use, does what it says. It's not as uncomfortable as you would think. Overall satisfied with my purchase and would buy again.
