Effectiveness of anal dilation for hemorrhoids

Dilation does not cure hemorrhoids and may aggravate them and lead to acute attacks. In particular, some elderly patients with Qi-deficient subluxation type of hemorrhoids are themselves caused by poor anal contraction, which leads to the downward shift of the anal cushion to form hemorrhoids, and this type of patient can aggravate the symptoms of hemorrhoids if they are treated with dilation. The initial dilation should be done with the finger for 3-4 times a week for about 15 minutes each time. If you dilation at home by yourself, you can go to buy dilation device, then first small dilation device, and then slowly to large dilation device. Before dilation, the anus should be fully lubricated, and during dilation, the patient should do the movement of defecation to assist dilation and avoid rough force to avoid bleeding of the trauma.
