What should I pay attention to when I have internal hemorrhoid bleeding?

1. Sitting for a long time is not good for the disease. Try not to sit or stand for a long time and don't let the blood stagnate in the anus. Exercising more (at least 15 minutes, avoid the wind when sweating, and persist in doing so) can promote blood circulation.

2. Food selection is also very important. Avoid spicy and irritating foods: avoid excessive consumption of raw onions, ginger, garlic, pepper, especially chili peppers.

3. The nutritional combination of food is also very important. A combination of meat and vegetables can reduce the occurrence of hemorrhoids or alleviate symptoms. Proper coarseness and fineness: In terms of diet, you should pay attention to not overeating both meat and vegetables, and balance coarse and fine grains appropriately, so that the stool will not be loose or dry.

4. There should be a time limit for urination and defecation. Defecation should be done on time, and you should avoid holding it in or straining. This will help to reduce the symptoms of congestion in the anorectal area. And soaking in warm water for 30 minutes after defecation can not only cleanse but also promote blood circulation.

5. Anal lifting exercises should be encouraged: no matter working with heavy weights, squatting for a long time, or sitting for a long time, it can eventually cause venous congestion and varicose veins in the rectum. Therefore, strengthening local exercises is very beneficial to reducing local venous congestion and varicose veins.

Internal hemorrhoid bleeding is very harmful, and other hazards should also be taken seriously

Internal hemorrhoid bleeding is one of the more obvious symptoms of internal hemorrhoids, and bleeding seriously affects people's normal life. However, in addition to bleeding, internal hemorrhoids can cause many other harms, mainly the following.

1. Iron deficiency anemia: Long-term bleeding can easily cause anemia in patients. It usually develops slowly, with no symptoms or mild symptoms in the early stages. When anemia is severe or progresses rapidly, pale complexion, fatigue, loss of appetite, palpitations, rapid heart rate, shortness of breath and edema after physical activity will appear. Some patients may also have neurological symptoms such as irritability, excitement, and irritability.

2. Skin eczema: As hemorrhoids often prolapse, the anal sphincter relaxes, mucus flows out of the anus and irritates the surrounding skin, which can easily lead to itching and skin eczema.

3. Cause sepsis, toxemia, and septicemia: Long-term bleeding can lead to anal abscess and anal infection. Once anal fissure is formed, bacteria, toxins, and pus plugs can easily invade the blood and cause sepsis, toxemia, and septicemia.

4. Prolapse of internal hemorrhoids and their incarceration: Long-term incarceration of hemorrhoids can lead to necrosis and infection, further aggravating local edema of the anus and the incarceration of hemorrhoids.
