What should I do if I get hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids can be said to be a common disease among modern people. Sitting for a long time and eating irritating food may aggravate the problem of hemorrhoids. If hemorrhoids are not treated in time, there will be problems such as bloody stools, dry stools, or even inability to defecate, which will seriously affect the patient's physical and mental health. Moreover, if not treated in time, it may even cause cancer. Therefore, if you have hemorrhoids, you must treat them scientifically.

For patients with hemorrhoids, they should pay attention to scientific diet, do more exercise, and eat more food that promotes digestion, so as to reduce the harm of hemorrhoids. So what should we do if hemorrhoids really occur?

Nursing knowledge Daily life care: Improper eating and drinking, or sitting or standing for a long time, carrying heavy loads for long distances, or long-term diarrhea and dysentery can cause hemorrhoids. Therefore, patients must first strictly quit smoking and drinking, avoid sitting or standing for a long time, carrying heavy loads, maintain cleanliness and hygiene, and exercise regularly and appropriately. Activity should be restricted after surgery. The patient should rest in bed, preferably lying on the side with the knees bent, especially in the first 3 days after surgery, and activity should be reduced as much as possible. To keep the anus clean, it is advisable to postpone bowel movements. Patients should not squat for a long time and should change their underwear frequently; Diet care: avoid spicy, hot and dry foods, eat more fruits such as pears, apples and bananas, correct picky eating habits, achieve a balanced diet, and keep bowel movements smooth. The diet should be light, and those with weak constitution should be given nutritious food. Those with weak constitution should eat nutritious food such as chicken, fish, and lean meat. Emotional care: Patients often have tension and fear, unstable emotions, and even irritability. You should stabilize your emotions, eliminate tension and fear, maintain a calm state of mind, and cooperate with the doctor's work; Health care: Develop good bowel habits to avoid dry stools or diarrhea; Change body positions frequently and develop the habit of regular bowel movements; Develop good hygiene habits to avoid intestinal infections; Stick to abdominal muscle contraction and anal lifting exercises to relieve symptoms.

So in order to reduce the harm of the disease to yourself in the future, it is best to reduce the bad habit of sitting for a long time in daily life.
