Mugwort invigorates the blood and relieves blood stasis, which can relieve the symptoms of hemorrhoids, but it cannot cure them. If the patient has hemorrhoids, hemorrhoids can be treated by controlling the diet, abstaining from spicy foods and giving potassium permanganate 1:5000 sitz baths if the condition is not very serious. 5-15 minutes each time, 3 times a day. If the hemorrhoids appear edematous, you can give symptomatic treatment such as Mai Zhi Ling tablets, 2 tablets each time, 2 times a day, while keeping the perineum clean after stool. If the patient’s symptoms do not improve significantly, it is recommended that the patient visit the local anorectal department for consultation and, if necessary, surgical treatment. So, if a patient has hemorrhoids, try not to use mugwort for treatment at home, but go to a regular hospital for consultation and treatment.
