What are the effective treatments for hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids are a more common disease. Frequent eating of spicy and irritating foods and being too tired will not only make people feel unbearable pain, but also cause bleeding problems during bowel movements.

1. Conservative treatment

1. Eat a light diet

Whether it is constipation or diarrhea, it will induce hemorrhoids and aggravate the condition of hemorrhoids, so you should usually pay attention to your diet, eat more light foods such as fruits and vegetables, do not eat spicy and irritating foods, and do not eat too greasy foods.

2. Pay attention to hygiene

Because there are many wrinkles around the anus, it cannot be wiped clean with toilet paper after defecation. It is recommended to wash with warm water after each defecation to keep the area around the anus clean and hygienic, avoid bacterial infection, and prevent the condition from worsening.

3. Medication

Patients with hemorrhoids can use medication under the guidance of a doctor. For example, every night, boil a Chinese medicine soup with potassium permanganate, warm salt water, Sophora flavescens, Phellodendron chinense, and wild chrysanthemum. Note that each bath should be about 15 minutes, and the temperature should not be too high to avoid scalding the skin. Hemorrhoid suppositories and other drugs can also be used for anal treatment. These methods have certain effects, but they cannot cure.

2. External processing methods

1. Injection therapy

If the hemorrhoids are slightly detached, hemorrhoid injections can be used to harden and detach the hemorrhoids, thus achieving the purpose of treatment.

2. Rubber band hemorrhoid therapy

When the hemorrhoids are relatively small, you can use a special latex ring to cover the base of the hemorrhoids. Generally, the hemorrhoids will become necrotic and fall off in about a week.

The above two external treatment methods are both for treating mild hemorrhoids. Although the effects are good, there is a certain recurrence rate.

3. Surgical treatment

If the hemorrhoids are in serious condition and conservative treatment and external treatment are ineffective, surgical treatment can be used. Currently commonly used surgical methods include external peeling and internal ligation, ultrasonic knife hemorrhoidectomy, PPH surgery, vascular ligation hemorrhoidectomy, etc. Doctors are advised to go to a regular hospital to choose the appropriate surgical method according to their own conditions.
