A few misconceptions about hemorrhoid treatment

When we open the newspaper, turn on the TV, many advertisements for the treatment of hemorrhoids flying all over the place, bragging about what “no hospitalization”, “no surgery”, “no surgery”, “no surgery”, “no pain”, “with the treatment”, “never recurring” and so on, in the eyes of laymen, as if the level of high, but if the insiders look at it, it is obvious that the efficacy of the treatment is exaggerated and mislead the patient. Spend less, just first sweet and then bitter A said ” spend less “: many small clinics playing a very favorable price to attract patients, claiming that a few hundred dollars will be able to eradicate hemorrhoids. In fact, the several hundred dollars is only the surgery fee, does not include the later treatment fee. At the end of the day, the total cost does not add up, and even higher than the normal price. The anal area is quite sensitive to nerve sensation, and a small stimulus can cause significant pain. Therefore, postoperative pain after hemorrhoid surgery is unavoidable, only the degree is different. Experienced anorectal surgeons with standardized operations and skilled techniques can avoid unnecessary surgical trauma and local irritation, and the post-operative pain will be much lighter. Many patients, due to misbelief in the beautiful lies of the advertisements, receive improper surgical treatment, resulting in varying degrees of sequelae and complications. The most common are serious defects in the skin of the anal canal, anorectal stenosis, wound infection, long-term non-healing, etc., and even the need for a second operation to solve the problem, resulting in irreparable trauma, which is considered painless ? ” with the treatment”, very dangerous three said ” no hospitalization, with the treatment”: this is a small clinic to attract patients of the common tricks. In fact, even the smallest hemorrhoid wound, to heal at least a week or more. Moreover, the first few days after the operation, wound bleeding and other complications may occur at any time, requiring professional doctors to carefully observe and timely treatment. Therefore, hemorrhoid surgery ” do-it-now ” is a great risk, especially those with severe hemorrhoids. ” No surgery “, purely fooling people four said ” no surgery, no incision “: some small clinics to take advantage of people revered high-tech and fear of surgery psychology, to ” no surgery ” to attract patients under the guise of, such as many advertisements boasted of laser treatment. This is in fact not mysterious, it is just the use of laser high-intensity heat to replace the scalpel to remove hemorrhoids, in the removal of the same time, so that the tissue coagulation, without the need for stitches, more suitable for smaller hemorrhoids. It is just as traumatic as surgical treatment. Since there is trauma, can you still justify the nonsense of ” no surgery” ? Besides, laser treatment of hemorrhoids is not suitable for larger hemorrhoids as the wound is prone to form ulcers and take longer to heal after surgery. At present, the regular big hospitals have rarely used this method. ” Never relapse “, impossible Lastly, ” complete cure, never relapse “: hemorrhoids is a disease unique to mankind, it is the price paid by mankind in the evolutionary process of choosing to walk upright. When a person walks, stands or squats, the venous return of the anal area is affected, and over time, hemorrhoids are formed. A spicy diet, prolonged squatting and sitting, and prolonged physical labor in an upright position are all triggering factors for hemorrhoids. So, even if the hemorrhoids are completely removed, as long as these triggering factors exist, there is a possibility of recurrence. Reminder: more heart eyes, ask why Realistically speaking, each treatment method has certain indications and limitations, one-sidedly exaggerate the role of a method, certainly contrary to the objective reality, like a panacea, claimed to be able to cure a hundred diseases, in fact, what disease can not be cured. A professional anorectal surgeon, no matter what method he uses to treat hemorrhoids, be it surgery, drugs or application of instruments, will not cause unnecessary pain to the patient. A non-professional doctor, even if he is allowed to use the most advanced instruments, will cause harm to the patient. Now, with a variety of English head boasts the so-called “advanced technology instruments”, or title “Tibetan medicine”, “Miao medicine”, “ancestral secret recipe” and other titles of the hemorrhoid medication, even with more than ten years of experience in the treatment of anorectal specialists are sometimes confused, not to mention professional knowledge of the blank ordinary people it? So, for the boasted godlike things, we must be more mindful, ask a few more why, do not easily believe in the overwhelming advertisements. About hemorrhoids misunderstanding, there are two: First, some people say, “ten people nine hemorrhoids, do not need to go to the cure”. This is wrong. No treatment is not required for hemorrhoids that do not show symptoms, in other words, the patient does not know that he has hemorrhoids, there is no discomfort, of course, do not need treatment. However, if the patient once bleeding hemorrhoids, prolapse, pain and other symptoms, should be treated, otherwise it will only aggravate their own pain, to the health of the potential hazards. Second, some patients are worried all day long, worrying that hemorrhoids will turn into cancer. In fact, so far, there is no evidence to confirm that itchy hemorrhoids have the possibility of cancer. However, the early symptoms of rectal cancer are often similar to hemorrhoids, which sometimes leads to rectal cancer being misdiagnosed as hemorrhoids, thus delaying the treatment. The purpose of anal fingerprinting and even pathological examination is to distinguish hemorrhoids from rectal cancer.
