Prevention and treatment of hemorrhoids

Prevention of hemorrhoids, the main aspects of the following: 1, strengthen exercise Regular participation in a variety of physical activities such as radio gymnastics, taijiquan, qigong, etc., can enhance the body’s ability to resist disease, reduce the possibility of disease, for hemorrhoids also have a certain preventive effect. 2, prevention of constipation Normal people defecate once a day, defecation time has a different habit of morning, noon and after dinner. To prevent constipation, the following points should be noted: (1) reasonable deployment of diet can increase appetite, correct constipation to improve gastrointestinal function, but also to develop the habit of regular bowel movements. Daily diet can be more vegetables, fruits, beans and other diets containing more vitamins and fiber, less spicy and stimulating food, such as chili, mustard, ginger, etc.. (2) to develop the habit of regular bowel movements Healthy people usually do not have feces in the rectum, with the morning wake up caused by the upright reflex, breakfast caused by the stomach, colon reflex, the colon can produce a strong “group peristalsis”, the feces pushed into the rectum, the rectum fecal accumulation to a certain amount, it will produce a bowel movement. It is best to get into the habit of having a regular bowel movement every morning, which has a very important role in preventing the occurrence of hemorrhoids. Some people believe that drinking a glass of cold water in the morning can stimulate gastrointestinal movement and prevent constipation. Scientific and reasonable simple self-therapy is important for this disease: 1, diet and living conditioning method regular life, regular bowel movements every day, to keep the bowels open; often clean the anus, and to keep dry, diet to light, avoid spicy and stimulating food, eat more vegetables and fruits, such as watermelon, bananas, tomatoes, etc. have the role of laxative. In summer, you should especially drink more salt water to avoid excessive sweat excretion. 2, drug conditioning method can be used Park nit, pepper to 10:1 ratio with boiling water fumigation. You can also insist on bathing with warm water after daily bowel movement, and apply Jiuhua cream, Wupei Zi San or Huanglian cream externally. 3, exercise conditioning method Proper exercise can reduce venous pressure, strengthen the function of the cardiovascular system, eliminate constipation, and enhance muscle strength. This is very useful for the prevention and treatment of hemorrhoids. The easiest and most effective method is to lift the anus: relax your whole body, tighten your hips and thighs, breathe in, lift the anus upwards, close your breath a little, then breathe out and relax your whole body. This exercise can be done anywhere and anytime: (1) Contract the anus Consciously do 3-5 anal contractions a day to enhance the function of the sphincter and promote local blood circulation. (2) Massage the anus Anal massage can improve local blood circulation and prevent the occurrence of hemorrhoids. (3) Sitz bath A sitz bath with hot water after defecation can not only wash away the dirt inside the folds of anal skin, but also promote local blood circulation, which plays an important role in keeping the anal part clean and physiological function. The treatment methods for hemorrhoids are as follows: 1. Drug treatment methods: (1) withered hemorrhoid dispersion therapy Apply withered hemorrhoid dispersion to the surface of the hemorrhoid nucleus to make the hemorrhoid nucleus necrotic, dry and fall off, and the wound heals itself, this method is applicable to stage III internal hemorrhoids and embedded hemorrhoids. (2) Internal Chinese herbal medicine that benefits qi and fixes bleeding, astringent and stops bleeding, astringent and resolves hemorrhoids, in order to reduce bleeding or stop bleeding, shrink hemorrhoids, reduce prolapse and reduce or eliminate symptoms, this method is applicable to any patients. (3) Use Chinese herbs that clear heat and detoxify the toxins and fix the detoxification and astringency of the intestines, decoction for external washing, such as bitter ginseng soup. It can be used for all kinds of patients and has good efficacy. It can also be treated by using Chinese herbal medicine or Chinese and Western medicine combination that can be easily absorbed by the skin, making ointment or medicine cloth, and applying it to the umbilicus or the sacral tail of the long strong point, which also has good curative effect. 2.Surgical treatment: Surgical treatment, removal of hemorrhoid nucleus, is still the most commonly used treatment method, its characteristics with the improvement of surgical methods, less pain during and after surgery, fast healing of the wound, the efficacy is certain, but requires high surgical conditions, is currently the most reliable method of treatment of hemorrhoids. 3, other therapies: (1) drug injection therapy that is sclerosing atrophy therapy, the sclerosing agent directly injected into the hemorrhoid nucleus, can make the hemorrhoid nucleus sclerosis atrophy or make the hemorrhoid plugs necrosis off. (2) withered hemorrhoid therapy that is drug twisting therapy, can make the hemorrhoid tissue abnormal and chemical inflammatory reaction, causing the proliferation of fibrous tissue, to achieve the purpose of treating hemorrhoids. (3) Infrared therapy Infrared light is used to irradiate or burn the nucleus of hemorrhoids, thereby causing them to shrink. In the solar spectrum, the wavelength from 0.76 to 400μ is called infrared. In physical therapy, it is often divided into two wavelengths with 1,5μ as the boundary. 0,76~1,5μ wavelength is called near infrared (short-wave infrared), which penetrates deeper into the tissue, 5~10mm. The wavelength of 1,5 to 400μ is called far infrared rays (long-wave infrared rays), which are mostly absorbed by the surface skin and penetrate less than 2mm deep into the tissues. Infrared therapy is mainly under the effect of radiation heat to make tissue heat production, local skin capillary expansion and congestion, blood flow accelerates, temperature increases, metabolism is strong, strengthen tissue nutrition, accelerate tissue regeneration capacity and cellular vitality, accelerate the absorption of inflammation and metabolic products, so it can be used to reduce inflammation and swelling; at the same time can reduce the excitability of nerve endings, so it also has the effect of analgesia and relaxation of muscle spasm. Therefore, infrared rays can be used for the treatment of inflamed external hemorrhoids, thrombosed external hemorrhoids, anal eczema, and embedded internal hemorrhoids. There is another kind of high power infrared ray, which can make the temperature of the irradiated area rise rapidly after irradiating the tissue and cause coagulation and necrosis. It is generally used for the treatment of smaller hemorrhoids, and its efficacy is roughly the same as that of rubber banding therapy. (4) Cryotherapy The use of freezers, liquid nitrogen as a freezing agent, the nucleus of the hemorrhoid frozen into a block, so that its necrosis off. Cryohemorrhoid therapy mainly applies liquid nitrogen to necrosis of the hemorrhoid nucleus tissue, and later the wound is postponed to heal, but there is a possibility of secondary bleeding, and the pain is long, the wound healing is slow, there are more hemorrhoid blocks remaining, the recurrence rate is high, and there are certain limitations. (5) Laser therapy The principle of laser treatment for hemorrhoids is to use optical energy to produce high temperature to carbonize and cut the hemorrhoid tissue, so while we use the laser to remove the hemorrhoid nucleus, the surface layer of the trauma left behind is also necrotic due to high temperature cauterization, so the actual trauma increases; after the surface layer of necrotic tissue falls off it is appropriate to cause hemorrhage, which often occurs about 2 weeks after surgery, causing great pain to the patient and even endangering The patient’s life is at stake, and the trauma only begins to heal after the scab falls off, so the healing time is greatly delayed. The treatment of hemorrhoids begins with keeping the bowels open and eating easily digestible, less dreary food. You should eat a coarse and fine diet, drink less strong tea, coffee, alcohol and less spicy food to reduce the stimulation of the anal canal. After the bowel movement, you should take a sitz bath with warm water and apply local hemorrhoid suppositories or hemorrhoid cream. Depending on the condition, injection therapy, cryotherapy and physical therapy can be used. Severe cases can be treated surgically, including ligation, rubber band ligation, hemorrhoidectomy, etc. Different treatment for different hemorrhoids When diabetic patients get hemorrhoids, they should consider the treatment in combination with the severity of the hemorrhoids and the severity of the diabetes. It is best to wait for the condition to stabilize before choosing an appropriate treatment for hemorrhoids. Stroke patients are prone to hemorrhoids due to limited limb movement function after the disease and prolonged lying and sitting. For those who are mildly paralyzed or semi-paralyzed and can move on the floor with the help of crutches, the principle of early prevention and treatment is used, such as appropriate exercise and surgical or non-surgical treatment according to the condition; for patients who are completely bedridden with severe paralysis, regardless of the severity of the symptoms of hemorrhoids, conservative treatment with internal and external medication is appropriate, such as decoction of cool blood dihuang soup and external application of musk hemorrhoid cream. The incidence of pediatric hemorrhoids is low, and treatment is appropriate with easy and painless treatments such as external Chinese medicine. The most important thing is to make sure that you have a good understanding of the situation. Older people are extremely susceptible to hemorrhoids because the nerves, blood vessels, muscles and ligaments in the anal area have become flaccid and weak. It is especially tricky to treat. It is best to use conservative treatments such as internal herbal medicines that moisten the intestines and transform hemorrhoids, as well as external herbal fumigation or applying creams or suppositories for hemorrhoids.
