Such as mutton, dog meat, garlic, onion, pepper, curry, pepper, ginger, fennel, incense, wine, etc., because spicy food directly stimulates the rectal mucosa and aggravates hemorrhoid bleeding and prolapse symptoms. Eat more foods rich in fiber, such as wheat bran, corn, brown rice, soybeans, oats, buckwheat, water bamboo, celery, bitter melon, fruits, etc. Do not eat too much, so as not to aggravate the condition due to dry stool.

2. Regulate emotions: Patients should stay calm, keep their emotions comfortable, and avoid impatience and anger, as anger harms the liver, and stagnation of liver qi causes spleen qi to sink, causing hemorrhoids to prolapse and bleeding to worsen.

6. Bathing: Bathing can clean the anus, clean secretions, reduce irritation to the mucous membrane skin, improve local blood circulation, and reduce inflammation, congestion and edema.
