Sometimes, but seldom, a hemorrhoid heals itself through the development of a blood clot, which shuts down the vein. Surgery in moderately severe cases is minor and like a treatment for varicose veins of the leg: a chemical is injected to harden the vein's walls and make it close down.

After a hard day on the slopes, the first order of business is-or ought to be -a good long soak in a hot bath. Hot buttered rum, Glühwein or glogg, and a spicy new potion called the Broken Leg -bourbon, hot apple juice, cinnamon, cloves, raisins and lemon-are also good therapy for aching muscles. Then it is time to dress for the pleasures of après-ski.
