Hemorrhoid suppositories are not recommended to be inserted very deeply, as they can easily cause damage to the rectum or affect the effectiveness of the medication. Hemorrhoidal suppositories are usually recommended to be inserted into the anus at a depth of about 2 to 3 centimeters, which is usually the depth at which the medication can have a better therapeutic effect. If inserted too deeply it may enter the rectum and cause damage to the rectal wall or rectal mucosa, which may result in irritation and inflammation. Insertion too deep may also lead to the drug can not act directly on the affected area, resulting in poor efficacy. The patient should clean the anus when using a hemorrhoidal suppository and then insert the suppository into the anus using a finger cuff. After the pessary is inserted into the anus, do not immediately stand up and move, you can rest in bed for a few minutes, and avoid the anal sphincter muscle force, until the drug is melted and absorbed. The use of hemorrhoidal suppositories should follow the doctor’s instructions, and when the symptoms are serious, you should go to the hospital in time for treatment.
