I feel a sense of anal drooping and always want to go to the toilet. What's going on?

If you often experience a feeling of anus heaviness and always want to go to the toilet, you can preliminarily diagnose it as chronic ulcerative proctitis. Of course, you still need to go to the hospital for a clear diagnosis. Ulcerative proctitis is a common anorectal disease, which not only causes a feeling of heaviness, but also easily causes mucus in the stool, and symptoms of alternating constipation and diarrhea.

Symptoms of chronic proctitis include:

1. Constipation and diarrhea alternate.

2. The stool contains mucus and blood.

3. Burning pain occurs at the anus during bowel movements because of irritation from secretions, which causes the epidermis around the anus to peel off and sometimes form cracks that cause itching.

4. Symptoms of distension and discomfort in the lower abdomen, loss of appetite, weight loss, and general discomfort.

How to treat ulcerative proctitis

1. Western medicine treatment for ulcerative proctitis: ① You must lie down and rest during the acute attack period. People with excessive mental and nervous tension can take sedatives appropriately. ② The diet should be soft, easily digestible, nutritious food, and only semi-liquid food without residue should be given during the acute attack period. It is advisable to fast for the first few days and provide nutrition intravenously to allow the intestines to rest. Avoid irritating foods and milk and dairy products. The preferred antibacterial drugs are sulfonamides which are not easily absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract.

2. Dietary treatment for ulcerative proctitis: During the diarrhea period, attention should be paid to nutritional supplementation, and the fiber content in the diet should be appropriately reduced. It is advisable to eat easily digestible liquid diet rich in folic acid, iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc and other trace elements. Avoid milk and dairy products. In severe cases, fasting is recommended for the first few days, and intravenous hypernutrition therapy can be used to allow the intestines to rest.

3. Psychological treatment for ulcerative proctitis: Do a good job in the patient's ideological work, and try to relax the whole body. For those who are overly nervous, sedatives and hypnotic drugs can be used!
