1. Children should not get hemorrhoids Hemorrhoids are a sign of age and their incidence rises as they get older, but this does not mean that children will not get them. Some children who are thin or have constipation will have purple bubbles protruding from the perianal area during bowel movements, large ones the size of a small nail cap, which are actually varicose external hemorrhoids. Most cases can be solved by improving constipation, but if a single is too large a small surgery can also be done. 2. eat peppers to get hemorrhoids In the vast southwest and northwest of China, people generally like to eat spicy food, while the southeast does not like spicy food, we do not find a big difference in the incidence of hemorrhoids in these two regions. But why does this misconception arise? It is dangerous for some people who usually rarely eat spicy food to suddenly eat a lot of it. So some patients ask if they can still eat spicy food after surgery. The answer is: Yes! But it should be in moderation. 3. no hemorrhoids because there is no pain Some patients come to the clinic, a checkup is quite serious hemorrhoids, but he (she) says: “I never have pain, how can I have hemorrhoids?” No pain is not necessarily a non-hemorrhoid, and pain is not necessarily a hemorrhoid. The most common symptoms of hemorrhoids are bleeding and prolapse, which are usually painless and only painful when accompanied by an acute attack of thromboedema. There are other reasons for anal pain such as abscesses, so you can’t use pain to determine if you have hemorrhoids. 4. Blood is hemorrhoids 80% of the time, hemorrhoids are painless drops of blood or spray blood, but anal fissures, rectal polyps, rectal cancer, rectal ulcers may also be fresh blood, clinical must be distinguished. The anal fissure is painful combined with bleeding; polyps bleed less; low rectal cancer will be accompanied by mucus, while blood will remain in the intestinal cavity, then a finger diagnosis can be immediately clear; rectal ulcers will be accompanied by falling, the urgency of the posterior weight. 5. Diarrhea is not hemorrhoids Constipation is easy to get hemorrhoids, so we mistakenly believe that as long as the stool is not dry or diarrhea will not get hemorrhoids, in fact, diarrhea is an important cause of hemorrhoids. The number of squatting toilets will increase, diarrhea is mostly caused by enteritis, long-term chronic inflammatory stimulation will cause the anorectal local blood vessels become brittle elasticity decline, hemorrhoids formed. This is why it is important to keep the anus locally clean and hygienic. The more diligent you are, the better. Some people who have hemorrhoids always like to use hot water to soak a bubble, scald a hot, or even sit in a hot tub and do not feel comfortable, but I do not know that this is wrong. It is true that the sitz bath itself has the effect of preventing hemorrhoids, but the water temperature should not be too hot, the sitz bath time should not exceed 5 minutes each time, and the number of sitz baths should not exceed 2 times in general, otherwise it may aggravate the hemorrhoids and affect the healing if post-operative. 7. surgery also recurrence so simply endure Some patients have very serious hemorrhoids, but when you tell him (her) need surgery, “do not do!” The reason is to hear others say that it is still recurring, and if you do it is not the same as taking a knife for nothing. In fact, this is playing smart, if a knife can protect you 5 years 10 years, but also better than you suffer every day, not to mention that many times can be a knife once and for all. The key is that you do not fall into the hands of the second knife. 8. breastfeeding can not operate maternity are hemorrhoids favored object, many in the breastfeeding period of maternity in order to baby safety, endure the torture of hemorrhoids and do not dare to surgery, which is also a misconception. The impact of surgery is intra-operative and post-operative medication, intra-operative anesthetics are generally metabolized within half a day, post-operative mainly antibiotics and local medications, choose cephalosporins and control within 1 day, feasible surgical treatment, 1 day after surgery can be normal breastfeeding. 9. treatment on the go is better than hospitalization A patient said his hemorrhoids to the hospital injection, has been 10 times, there were no symptoms, drummed up to bleeding, but he did not regret, said the place has a lot of patients, “treatment on the go” is too tempting. The consequences of treating patients as they go are believed to be that they have to go back. The shorter the surgery the better I’m afraid no one is afraid of surgery, so the biggest expectation lying on the operating table is to end it quickly. So this time someone told you 3 minutes, you will think the method is good. The other day there was an operation that took a little longer, but the patient always said comfortingly, “Doctor, there is no hurry, make sure you do it carefully for me”. But don’t praise him yet, because he really didn’t want to do it for the 6th time, and his greed for speed made him treat 3 times for nothing.
