Anal itching caused by hemorrhoids

Anal itching may be caused by hemorrhoids, which are usually accompanied by swelling, burning sensation and slight bleeding. To relieve symptoms, you should pay attention to your lifestyle, use medication, and consider surgery if necessary. The following is a detailed introduction to the causes and treatments of anal itching.

1. Cause analysis

Hemorrhoids are a disease caused by swelling of the venous plexus at the lower end of the rectum. Its main causes can be attributed to the following:

a. Genetic factors: A family history of hemorrhoids may increase the risk of the disease.

b. Environmental factors: Bad living habits such as sitting for long periods of time, riding for long periods of time, drinking and eating spicy foods will aggravate the formation of hemorrhoids.

c. Physiological factors: Changes in rectal pressure caused by constipation or diarrhea, physical changes during pregnancy, etc. can lead to increased venous pressure.

d. Pathological development: From mild swelling and discomfort to severe pain and irregular bleeding, it will cause greater health problems.

2. Treatment Methods

The following treatment options are recommended for anal itching caused by hemorrhoids:

a. Drug treatment: Topical application of hemorrhoid ointment or suppository, such as Mayinglong Musk Hemorrhoid Ointment and Anning Ointment, can effectively relieve itching and inflammation.

b. Adjust your lifestyle: Keep your anus clean and clean it regularly. You can use warm water to sit and bathe to relieve local discomfort. Increase dietary fiber to ensure smooth bowel movements. Avoid reading or playing with your phone in the toilet to reduce the causes of constipation.

c. Surgical treatment: If medication and lifestyle adjustment are not effective, you may consider surgical methods such as rubber band ligation, sclerotherapy injection or hemorrhoidectomy. The specific plan needs to be consulted with a professional doctor.
