What are hemorrhoids? Hemorrhoids are a very common clinical disease, accounting for about 85% of all anorectal diseases, so the folk have “ten people nine hemorrhoids” said. Both men and women can suffer from the disease, women account for about 2/3, men account for about 1/3, of which 30 to 50 years old people are more common. The traditional concept that, sedentary, standing for a long time so that the human body in a fixed position for a long time, thus affecting blood circulation, so that the pelvic blood flow is slow and abdominal organs congestion, caused by hemorrhoidal vein overfilling, varicose, bulging, vein wall tension is one of the important reasons for the onset of the decline. If the movement is insufficient, intestinal peristalsis slows down, feces downward slow or due to habitual constipation, thus compression of the veins, so that the local congestion, and blood reflux obstacles, caused by hemorrhoidal vein pressure rise, the vein wall resistance is reduced, can also lead to increased incidence of hemorrhoids. The modern concept of hemorrhoids is that there is a normal anal cushion in the upper part of the anal canal, when the anal cushion is pathologically hypertrophied, the surrounding support structure is damaged, the anal cushion is pathologically displaced that is called hemorrhoidal disease, commonly known as “hemorrhoids”. Hemorrhoids are divided into internal hemorrhoids and external hemorrhoids with the anal dentate line as the boundary, and if they cross the dentate line, they are called mixed hemorrhoids. External hemorrhoids manifested as a swelling can not enter the anus. Internal hemorrhoids are mainly bleeding and prolapse, internal hemorrhoids are divided into four degrees: Ⅰ degree: only blood in stool. The second degree: there is both blood in the stool and hemorrhoidal prolapse, but can be self-returned. Ⅲ degree: after the stool mass prolapse can not self-return to the anus need to use the hand to return. Ⅳdegree with the hand can not be returned, serious embedded necrosis can occur. What are the symptoms of hemorrhoids? Hemorrhoids is a common disease, in the early stage of hemorrhoidal disease, often the symptoms are not obvious, with the hemorrhoidal nucleus gradually increase, the symptoms will gradually aggravate. 1, blood in stool, painless, intermittent after stool with bright red blood is its characteristics. 2, hemorrhoidal prolapse, often late symptoms. 3.Pain Simple internal hemorrhoids without pain, such as hemorrhoidal disease occurs inflammation swelling, hemorrhoids within the thrombus or embedded then there is pain. 4.Mucus outflow. 5, itching. What harm will hemorrhoids do to a person? Hemorrhoid symptoms are various but the most important is blood in stool and prolapse. Therefore, the harm caused by hemorrhoids is also mainly due to these conditions. 1, under normal circumstances iron absorption and excretion to maintain a balanced state. Normal adults will not lose more than 22mg of iron per day while patients with blood loss of more than 6-8ml of blood per day lose more than 3-4mg of iron, long-term blood loss will cause iron deficiency anemia. 2, hemorrhoids another symptom is prolapse. Prolapsed out of the anus of the internal hemorrhoids, by the sphincter muscle pressure so that venous return is blocked, and arterial blood is still continuously input hemorrhoidal core, until the arterial blood flow is pressed closed thrombosis, appear hemorrhoids hard, pain, can be sent back to the anus, and even continue to be seriously infected endangering the patient’s life. Hemorrhoids can be hereditary? Hemorrhoids is a common disease in adults, it is in the anal canal in the anal cushion of the tissue degeneration displacement caused. Pregnancy constipation, diarrhea and other causes of increased intra-abdominal pressure, long-term standing squatting caused by the occurrence of hemorrhoids, etiologically speaking, is acquired, the likelihood of heredity is small. However, some patients believe that the number of people suffering from hemorrhoids in a family is higher, may be associated with the family of people with congenital weakness of the venous wall, the blood vessel wall elastic fibers less collagen fibers, lack of elasticity, can not tolerate the pressure of the blood vessels, in the same conditions are easy to dilate and hemorrhoids, but most scholars believe that there is no sufficient evidence of hemorrhoids related to heredity. Can hemorrhoids become cancerous? Hemorrhoids are the most common disease in the anal region, and many patients are concerned about whether it will become cancerous. Hemorrhoids are pathologically enlarged anal cushions that displace and bleed while rectal cancer is a malignant lesion that occurs in the mucosa of the rectum. Although the early symptoms of hemorrhoids and rectal cancer are similar in that they are both characterized by blood in the feces and blood in the stool, they are two very different diseases. In fact, it is very easy for doctors to distinguish internal hemorrhoids from rectal cancer. As long as we do an anal fingerprinting, it is easy to diagnose, and misdiagnosis rarely occurs. Often some non-anal surgeons just listen to the patient say I am hemorrhoids and prescribe medication without doing rectal fingerprinting. Therefore, it can be seen that internal hemorrhoids will not be cancerous, but will cover up many cancerous manifestations and delay timely treatment. What is the modern hemorrhoid treatment concept? When hemorrhoidal disease develops to the clinical manifestation of bleeding, prolapse and other obvious symptoms, affecting the life of the first to consider improving their habits can be drug treatment. If the internal hemorrhoids developed to Ⅲ degree, Ⅳ degree or acute embedded hemorrhoids, necrotic hemorrhoids and symptoms and signs of significant external hemorrhoids, whether the patho-anatomy or physiological function has irreversible damage. The choice of surgical treatment is very necessary, the purpose of surgery is to eliminate symptoms, improve signs, as far as possible, to protect the normal anal cushion tissue, that is, now with the PPH surgery that is anastomosis hemorrhoidal mucosal circumferential resection. How do hemorrhoid patients carry out self-care? As we all know, hemorrhoids is a common and frequent disease in clinic, and its symptoms are mainly characterized by bleeding and prolapse: such triggers as climate change, fatigue, alcohol consumption, respiratory infections and so on can induce this disease, which brings great pain to the patients. Therefore, self-care to prevent the occurrence of hemorrhoids is particularly important. 1, prevent infection, prevent cold, cold makes the condition worse. 2, avoid alcohol, alcohol can cause perianal tissue congestion and edema and thus lead to acute attacks of hemorrhoids. 3, eat less spicy stimulating food. 4, can not hold stool. 5, not overwork. 6, avoid sitting and squatting. 7, change bad habits, read books and newspapers when defecating. 8, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. 9, massage the abdomen is conducive to intestinal peristalsis. 10, often do anal exercises.
