Can hemorrhoids cause constipation?

The probability of hemorrhoids is very high. Both men and women may be affected by hemorrhoids. If hemorrhoids occur, they need to be treated correctly. Generally, if constipation is delayed for a long time, it will cause diseases such as hemorrhoids and anal fissures.

1. If constipation persists for a long time, it will definitely cause diseases such as hemorrhoids and anal fissures. So, will hemorrhoids cause constipation if left untreated for a long time? Experts point out that this possibility is very high.

2. There are two main reasons why hemorrhoids cause constipation. One is that patients suppress the urge to defecate for fear of the pain of defecation, causing the feces to stay for a long time, the water is reabsorbed, and it becomes dry and hard, leading to constipation. At the same time, the nerve reflexes inside the rectum become sluggish due to hemorrhoids, resulting in a slow urge to defecate, which can also cause constipation. Second, hemorrhoid patients are very prone to inflammation and frequent infection around the anus, or due to itching and scratching around the anus, scars are formed, causing anal tissue hyperplasia and stenosis, resulting in difficulty in defecation and then constipation.

? 3. Experts say that the latter is more common in patients with a longer history of hemorrhoids. If this problem is not solved, hemorrhoids will worsen or recur due to constipation, forming a vicious cycle. Similarly, patients who originally had simple constipation may become difficult to treat due to anal stenosis after a long history of the disease. Therefore, these patients must solve the problem of anal stenosis, otherwise neither constipation nor hemorrhoids can be cured. According to him, for the recurrent symptoms of constipation and hemorrhoids caused by anal stenosis, the best clinical effect is anal enlargement (anal canal expansion). This surgical method can solve the problem of obstructed channels and achieve good treatment goals. Director Zhong Xianwen has profound attainments in this treatment. Through nearly 30 years of summary and clinical application, he can accurately grasp the surgical scale during the operation, which can not only ensure good treatment results, but also restore the appearance of the surgical site very well.

4. It is understood that many hemorrhoid patients are not aware of the problem of anal stenosis. Experts suggest that hemorrhoid patients with a certain medical history or existing constipation should check whether they have anal stenosis to avoid detours in treatment.
