Applying honey to the site of hemorrhoids

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I say: Honorable Shaykh, I seek Allah's forgiveness. I am the imam of a mosque and I attend your lessons regularly, praise be to Allah, but I suffer from hemorrhoids, and when I sit I am in pain. One of the brothers advised me to apply honey to the incision site where the hemorrhoids are. What is the ruling on applying honey to this area?

Answer:
If it brings healing or has some benefit, yes, for dire necessity, yes.
