Based on long evolving Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ma Ying Long Hemorrhoids Ointment has a respectable history. Widely acclaimed as the most used hemorrhoid medicine in China, it is the ‘go to’ Chinese topical treatment for the itching, burning and discomfort of hemorrhoids. Are these claims supported by actual, real hemorrhoid relief?
Ingredients
Ma Ying Long Hemorrhoids Ointment contains the following ingredients:
- Pearl
- Synthetic Bezoar
- Synthetic Musk
- Calamine,
- Amber
Interestingly enough, despite Ma Ying Long’s reputation as an ancient Chinese hemorrhoid treatment, not one of the listed ingredients has supporting clinical research to document these claims. The absence of real scientific proof is pretty suspicious in our book and should be in yours too.
Dosage
The ointment is recommended only for external application, ‘as needed.’ Frequency or a limitation on frequency of usage is not noted.
Price
It’s not expensive. While that might appeal to the pocket book, without safety, quality and effectiveness assurances, what are you really paying for. If you are really, truly suffering from hemorrhoid discomfort, you want the best relief at the best price. Not just the best price ($5.99) if relief isn’t delivered quickly and safely. That’s no bargain.
Guarantee
Reputable products generally have reputable, honored return policies. No such guarantee exists for Ma Ying Long Hemorrhoids Ointment.
Conclusion of Ma Ying Long Hemorrhoids Ointment Review
While traditional Chinese folklore reveals positive ‘anecdotal’ results with Ma Ying Long Hemorrhoids Ointment, we don’t think the product proves its case. As it does not contain clinically proven ingredients, allergy sufferers especially should beware. An allergic response on top of hemorrhoidal discomfort does not sound like a picnic to us.
