What should I do if I have hemorrhoid pain?

Hemorrhoids are a relatively common disease. Although they are not considered a serious illness, the pain can be life-threatening. Patients with hemorrhoids cannot sit or stand comfortably. Many of them cannot eat or sleep well, especially when going to the toilet. Hemorrhoids are prone to recurrence and are difficult to treat. The treatment process is also relatively long. The following editor will tell you what to do if you have hemorrhoids and it hurts.

The first step in treating hemorrhoids is to keep the bowels open and eat easily digestible food with less residue. The diet should be a combination of coarse and fine foods, drink less strong tea, coffee, alcohol and eat less spicy food to reduce irritation to the anal canal. Take a warm water sitz bath after defecation and apply hemorrhoid suppository or hemorrhoid ointment topically. Depending on the condition, injection therapy, cryotherapy and physical therapy can be used. Severe cases can be treated with surgery, including ligation, rubber band ligation, hemorrhoidectomy, etc.

1. Develop good bowel habits. Whenever you feel the urge to defecate, you should go to the toilet immediately. Concentrate on defecation and don't do two things at once.

2. To prevent constipation, ensure you drink enough water every day. After getting up, drink a glass of light salt water on an empty stomach, which has the effect of laxative and softening hard masses. It can not only increase gastrointestinal motility, but also adjust the autonomic nervous function, which is conducive to smooth bowel movements.

3. Dietary taboos: Eating less spicy and irritating food is essential for the care of hemorrhoids. Because irritating foods such as chili, strong tea, coffee, mustard, etc. will not only aggravate local congestion of the anus and inflammation of the anal sinuses, but also weaken the resistance of the blood vessel walls.

4. The diet should be light, eat less spicy, fried, deep-fried, strong alcoholic and other indigestible and irritating foods, eat more fruits, vegetables and fibrous foods, drink plenty of water, especially bananas, honey and other laxative foods. Don't sit for too long. Get up and exercise if you sit for too long. Eat less spicy food. Eat more healthy foods such as vegetables and fruits. Supplement more foods containing calcium and magnesium to enhance intestinal motility. Maintain a good life routine and go to bed early and get up early to give your body better rest.

5. Think more and do more things that can relax you, relieve stress, and make you happy, so as to avoid losing control of your emotions and becoming irritable;

6. In daily life, pay attention to eating less or no spicy and other irritating foods, and do not drink or drink less iced drinks and alcoholic beverages. If you have already eaten, you can increase the amount of water you drink (clear water) that day to excrete irritants from the body as soon as possible; 3. Eat regularly and eat more green leafy vegetables and fruits, which can effectively regulate gastrointestinal function and prevent toxic substances from accumulating at the end of the rectum.

Patients with hemorrhoids are advised not to undergo hemorrhoid surgery unless it is absolutely necessary, because surgery is not only risky, but most importantly, it can lead to recurrence. You can choose Chinese medicine treatment. Although the recovery process of Chinese medicine treatment is relatively slow, it has no side effects. If you suffer from hemorrhoids, try not to eat irritating foods to prevent constipation from aggravating the pain.
