The most common lumps at the anus are hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are caused by the physiological and anatomical characteristics of the human anus. Hemorrhoids are prone to attacks when abdominal pressure increases, such as when the stool is dry and constipated.

[Treatment policy]

Asymptomatic hemorrhoids do not require treatment; symptomatic hemorrhoids do not require radical treatment and are mainly treated with non-surgical methods. When conservative treatment is ineffective, hemorrhoids are severely prolapsed, large fibrotic internal hemorrhoids are not well treated with injections, and combined with anal fissures, anal fistulas, etc., surgical treatment is used.

[Drug treatment]

1. Oral medication is generally used to treat varicose veins. 2. Injection therapy is more effective for grade I and II bleeding internal hemorrhoids; the sclerosant is injected around the venous plexus in the submucosal layer to cause inflammatory reaction and fibrosis, thereby compressing and closing the varicose veins; the treatment can be repeated after one month to avoid injecting the sclerosant into the mucosal layer and causing necrosis.

[Surgical treatment]

1. Thrombosed external hemorrhoidectomy is suitable for patients whose pain does not ease or the swelling does not shrink after conservative treatment of thrombosed external hemorrhoids. 2. Traditional hemorrhoidectomy is external peeling and internal ligation. 3. Circumcision of hemorrhoids (Whitehead procedure) This is a classic procedure in textbooks, which can easily lead to anal stenosis and is rarely used in clinical practice. 4.PPH surgery: stapler hemorrhoidectomy and hemorrhoidal mucosal circumcision and stapling.

[Other treatments]

The root of the hemorrhoids is ligated to block its blood supply and cause the hemorrhoids to fall off and necrotize; it is suitable for II and III degree internal hemorrhoids, and is more suitable for giant internal hemorrhoids and fibrotic internal hemorrhoids.

Daily care

1. Avoid sitting or standing for long periods of time, do anal exercises regularly, and actively participate in physical exercise; 2. Develop the habit of regular bowel movements to prevent constipation; 3.

On the 2nd to 4th day after surgery, patients should eat semi-liquid food with less residue, such as porridge, noodles, wonton and fruits, etc., and are encouraged to have bowel movements on time to avoid the disappearance of normal defecation reflex and constipation. 3.
