What to do if hemorrhoids itch? There are ways to relieve itching

Hemorrhoids are a very common disease. The symptoms of hemorrhoids include bloody stools, prolapse, pain, etc. Another problem that makes hemorrhoid patients unbearable is the itching caused by hemorrhoids. Patients with hemorrhoidal itching should not scratch because they are afraid of causing infection. But the itching can make people upset and unable to sleep. So what are the methods to treat hemorrhoid itching?

1: First, when hemorrhoids cause anal itching, we need to actively treat it; secondly, we need to eliminate the factors that lead to abnormal increase of perianal secretions from personal hygiene habits and eating habits;

2: Avoiding long periods of sitting and doing regular ani-lifting exercises can enhance the anal muscle sphincter function;

3: The anus is the organ for excreting feces. There are many bacteria in the feces. Feces often remain around the anus after defecation. After each defecation or before going to bed every day, rinse the anus with a shower. The effect will be better if you lift the anus while rinsing.

4: Cold or warm water baths can also relieve anal itching and prevent disease. Taking medication and taking a sitz bath can stabilize the condition and relieve symptoms and pain.

5: Patients with hemorrhoidal itching should avoid spicy foods and abstain from alcohol. Eat less refined carbohydrate foods. Eat more fruits and vegetables rich in fiber;

6: Eat less irritating foods. For example, water chestnuts are rich in fiber and have a relatively cool nature, making them good for maintaining smooth bowel movements. But if you have a bad stomach, you can drink more fresh milk and eat fruit after meals;

7: You should drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated;

8: Finally, it is important to remind you that frequent scratching can cause lichen-like changes and skin pigmentation on the skin, which is not conducive to the recovery of the disease, so avoid it.

The skin around the anus is very delicate and may be damaged if it is over-cleaned, so avoid scratching it. When summer comes, we should pay more attention to protection.
