Principles and treatment methods for treating hemorrhoids

Everyone has heard of hemorrhoids! Hemorrhoids (commonly known as hemorrhoids) are a common disease located in the anal area. They can occur at any age, but the incidence rate gradually increases with age. Hemorrhoids can cause blood in the stool, which may be painless, intermittent, or may be fresh blood after defecation, or may drip blood during defecation or on toilet paper. It may be aggravated by constipation, drinking, or eating irritating foods. There will be a feeling of heaviness and swelling. So, what are the principles for treating hemorrhoids?

1. Drug therapy is the fundamental treatment for early hemorrhoids: Drug treatment for hemorrhoids should combine Chinese and Western medicine, attack both inside and outside, and be taken in cycles. Do not give up halfway.

2. Traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of early hemorrhoids

3. Oral administration: Use Chinese medicine for internal use that can replenish qi, consolidate the body, astringe and stop bleeding, and astringe the intestines to resolve hemorrhoids, so as to reduce or stop bleeding, shrink hemorrhoids, reduce prolapse, and alleviate or eliminate symptoms. This method is suitable for any patient.

4. For external use: One is to use traditional Chinese medicine that can clear away heat and detoxify, consolidate the intestines, and decoct it into a decoction for external washing. It can be used for various patients with good therapeutic effects. The second is to use Chinese medicine or a combination of Chinese and Western medicine that is easily absorbed by the skin, make it into ointments or medicated cloths, and stick it on the Changqiang acupoints on the navel or sacrum for treatment, which also has a good therapeutic effect.

5. Internal hemorrhoids: In the early stage, non-surgical treatment should be the main treatment, with the elimination and improvement of symptoms as the premise; for patients with recurrent attacks, obvious symptoms, and those who have difficulty in learning, work and life after non-surgical treatment, surgical treatment can be used;

External hemorrhoids: For asymptomatic external hemorrhoids, generally no special treatment is required. If the disease recurs repeatedly and even affects normal study, life and work, or the patient requests it, surgical treatment will be used

Mixed hemorrhoids: For mild patients, non-surgical treatment is mainly used; while for severe mixed hemorrhoids, surgical treatment should be used. For annular mixed hemorrhoids, the area should be divided according to its natural shape, and the surgery should be performed in different areas and segments, or in multiple stages if necessary.

It should be noted that even for early stage hemorrhoids, treatment cannot be effective in one step. Doctors emphasize: While focusing on drug therapy, attention should also be paid to health care therapy. For example, anal levator exercises, abdominal rotation exercises, and pelvic lifting exercises are all good ways to promote recovery. In addition, paying attention to diet and keeping bowel movements smooth are also essential, which can effectively avoid some complications. In short, when patients ask how to treat hemorrhoids in the early stages, the above-mentioned aspects should not be neglected, otherwise the effect will be as slow as a snail, which will make people lose patience.
