Sphincter relaxation symptoms, need to pay attention to

The sphincter controls our daily bowel movements and is a necessary place for eliminating toxins from the body. If you do not pay attention to hygiene or if there are lesions, it will cause the sphincter to relax. Many people have symptoms of anal sphincter relaxation, so how to warn of anal sphincter relaxation? Let us understand its symptoms.

symptom:

1. Complete anal incontinence

The symptoms of incontinence are severe. The patient cannot control his bowel movements at will. There is no fixed frequency of bowel movements. Feces are discharged from the anus during intestinal peristalsis. Even when coughing, squatting, walking, or sleeping, feces or intestinal fluid may flow out and contaminate clothes and bedding. The area around the anus is damp, erosive, itchy, or the skin around the anus shows skin changes such as eczema.

2. Incomplete anal incontinence

There is no incontinence when the stool is dry, but once the stool becomes loose, it cannot be controlled and anal incontinence occurs.

3. Anal sensory incontinence

There is no large amount of feces flowing out, but when the feces are loose, a small amount of feces will unconsciously overflow before defecation, staining clothes. It is more serious during diarrhea, and mucus often irritates the skin.

treat:

1. Non-surgical treatment

(1) Promote bowel movements? Treat colorectal inflammation, make stools normal, avoid diarrhea and constipation, avoid taking irritating foods, and often eat high-fiber foods.

(2) Anal sphincter exercises: Improve the voluntary contraction ability of the external sphincter puborectalis and levator ani muscles, and increase anal function.

(3) Electrical stimulation? Commonly used for neurogenic anal incontinence.

2. Surgical treatment

Congenital diseases, anal sphincterotomy after rectal cancer surgery, etc. require surgical treatment, which can be done by sphincter repair, rectovaginal sphincter repair, sphincter plication, skin graft tube plasty, sphincter plasty, etc.

Through the introduction above, I believe you already know the symptoms and treatment methods of anal sphincter relaxation! We must pay more attention to it in daily life and do not ignore these seemingly very small things, which may cause serious harm to our body. Exercise more often to allow the anal sphincter to gradually contract, and pay attention to a healthy diet and regular work and rest schedule.
