What to do if you have prolapsed internal hemorrhoids for many years

What should I do if I have prolapsed internal hemorrhoids for many years?

Internal hemorrhoid prolapse is a common symptom of hemorrhoids. In the early stage of internal hemorrhoids, prolapse rarely occurs. Even if internal hemorrhoids prolapse, they can shrink on their own. But as the disease progresses, internal hemorrhoid prolapse will become more and more serious. Many times, after prolapse, they cannot shrink on their own, and they may even prolapse when walking.

Internal hemorrhoid prolapse should be treated actively. The specific treatment methods are as follows:

1. Drug cleaning and sitz bath: For prolapsed internal hemorrhoids, you can use normal saline to clean the perianal skin and prolapsed hemorrhoids, which helps to reduce inflammation, sterilize, stop bleeding, and reduce swelling. If conditions permit, it is best to take a bath with warm water every day, or you can ask a Chinese medicine doctor to prescribe some Chinese medicine for fumigation and washing.

2. Suppository treatment: Hemorrhoid suppositories can be used to treat internal hemorrhoid prolapse. Hemorrhoid suppositories are inserted into the anus, and the therapeutic effect can directly affect the affected area. Not only is the treatment time shorter, but the treatment effect is also better. Specific medications should be taken under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Prevent and treat constipation: People with internal hemorrhoids and frequent constipation are more likely to have internal hemorrhoid prolapse, so constipation needs to be prevented and treated. Usually, you should pay attention to eating less food that is easy to anger, spicy food, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and eat more food containing crude fiber to keep the bowel movement smooth and prevent constipation, which can effectively relieve the symptoms of hemorrhoid prolapse.

4. Surgical treatment: If the internal hemorrhoid prolapse is severe, it can be treated surgically. The hemorrhoids can be removed according to the condition, or minimally invasive surgery or internal hemorrhoid ligation can be chosen. It can solve the problem of internal hemorrhoid prolapse very well and the treatment effect is ideal.

In short, internal hemorrhoid prolapse should be treated as early as possible. When the internal hemorrhoids just prolapse, they should be pushed back to the original position in time with your hands. If it is difficult to push them back, you can take a warm water bath first and then push them back gently. If internal hemorrhoid prolapse occurs frequently, you can take a bath with medicine, or insert medicine for treatment. If necessary, surgical treatment can also be considered.
