Eating spicy food causes blood in the stool

Modern medicine's research on the pathogenesis of hemorrhoids is still not very clear, but it is undeniable that a person's diet is closely related to the onset of hemorrhoids. For example, people in Sichuan have a very high chance of suffering from hemorrhoids. Because people in Sichuan like to eat spicy food, some food is not digested and completely irritates the anus. So what is the problem of blood in the stool after eating spicy food?

If it is caused by hemorrhoids, you need to pay attention to your diet, avoid alcohol and spicy foods, increase fiber foods, eat more fruits and vegetables, drink more water, change bad bowel habits, keep the bowels open, take laxatives when necessary, and clean the anus after defecation. For prolapsed hemorrhoids, be careful to gently push the hemorrhoids back with your hands to prevent them from falling out again. Avoid sitting or standing for long periods of time, do appropriate exercise, take a sitz bath in warm water (which may contain potassium permanganate) before going to bed, etc.

Dietary adjustment is an important factor in preventing hemorrhoids, alleviating hemorrhoid symptoms, and reducing the recurrence of hemorrhoids. As the saying goes, "Diseases come from the mouth." Many diseases are caused by eating, and hemorrhoids are no exception. Relevant data show that the cause of hemorrhoids is closely related to diet, and patients may develop hemorrhoids if they are not careful about their diet. Therefore, correcting bad eating habits is an important measure for the treatment of hemorrhoids.

From a preventive perspective, constipation should be prevented and bowel movements should be kept smooth. Therefore, you should eat more green vegetables and fresh fruits, such as celery, spinach, leek, day lily, wild rice stem, as well as apples, peaches, apricots, melons and other foods rich in fiber, which can increase gastrointestinal motility, moisturize the intestines and promote bowel movements, and excrete harmful substances and carcinogens from the intestines. In addition, foods that have a preventive effect on hemorrhoids include red beans, locust flowers, black sesame, Cistanche deserticola, pig large intestine, sheep large intestine, turtle meat, walnut meat, bamboo shoots, honey, etc.

Therefore, people must pay more attention to eating spicy food in moderation, especially some patients with hemorrhoids should not eat it. At the same time, once blood in the stool appears, everyone must not be careless, and must go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. I wish you a speedy recovery!
