A little about the disease
Symptoms and manifestations of this diseaseare extremely unpleasant and painful and cause a lot of suffering. There are external and internal hemorrhoids. With external hemorrhoids, the hemorrhoidal nodes are low in the rectum, very often they protrude from the anus to the outside, hurt unbearably and bleed. Accordingly, during an exacerbation of the disease, defecation causes continuous torment, and any physical activity and just movement stimulate constant aching pain, bleeding, fever and a general state of malaise. The manifestations of internal hemorrhoids are similar to external ones, but the disease is complicated by the difficulty of treatment due to the inaccessibility of the inflamed nodes and the cracks that have formed. Based on the above, the seriousness of this disease becomes clear and especially its impact on the normal functioning of the patient's body and the quality of his daily life, which is filled with pain and suffering during an exacerbation of hemorrhoids. How serious is the disease itself, and what treatment methods exist?
Key recommendations
What are the ways to combat this disease?Is it possible to get rid of the disease forever or at least alleviate and prevent exacerbations? Is there a way to treat it with folk remedies without surgery? Can folk methods be more effective than surgery to remove the nodes? So, before deciding on the surgical intervention recommended by your doctor, you should try the most famous folk remedies for treating hemorrhoids. First, you need to make it a rule to wash your anus with soap after each visit to the toilet. At the same time as this procedure, you need to mechanically push back the prolapsed hemorrhoidal cones and stimulate the pelvic muscles to draw them in and hold them if possible. This exercise is very effective and useful, and also very efficient. Along with personal hygiene, there are many simple folk remedies for combating hemorrhoids. They are mainly based on the therapeutic effect of various herbs and vegetables when applied locally. The simplest and most effective method is treatment with raw potatoes. For internal hemorrhoids, a candle is cut out of a potato with a knife and inserted into the anus overnight. For externally prolapsed nodes, washed potatoes with the peel are grated, and this gruel is applied to the inflamed areas. The duration is not limited, and such a procedure will not cause harm. Another of the simplest external treatments, I would like to dwell on sea buckthorn oil, which is an excellent antiseptic, perfectly heals cracks, dries and reduces swelling of inflamed nodes. A cotton swab soaked in sea buckthorn oil is inserted into the anus for several hours, and the entire area of inflammation is lubricated.
Unusual ways to fight the disease
Along with mild symptom relief methodsdiseases, there are more radical folk remedies for getting rid of hemorrhoids. You can't immediately dismiss their effectiveness, since there are real cases of complete recovery even from an advanced form of the disease, which today is supposed to be treated exclusively by surgery. An interesting method for relieving pain and reducing inflammation is ice candles. This remedy is quite difficult to perform, and its effectiveness is achieved in a very painful way. Ice pieces of a suitable size are frozen in the form of anal candles. The main thing is to ensure that the ice is not sharp and has no chips. Next, such a candle is inserted into the anus and held until it melts completely. The sensations can be quite painful, but this method effectively relieves swelling. The most famous of the folk methods is garlic treatment in a bathhouse. To do this, peel several cloves of garlic and finely chop them into pieces. In a heated bathhouse, take hot stones from the stove and place them in a galvanized bucket. Chopped garlic is poured on top so that garlic smoke comes from the stones, and the patient sits on the bucket with his bare bottom. The evaporating and smoldering garlic has a very powerful effect. The procedure lasts about twenty minutes until the stones cool down. Repeat a couple of times a week. Several such sessions are enough to forget about hemorrhoids forever.
External and internal complexes
In addition to external exposure, it is recommendedtake herbal and vegetable decoctions that have a mild laxative and stool-thinning effect. This could be rowan juice, boiled beets, dandelion root decoction, mint leaves. Well, and knotweed has long been used during exacerbations to reduce bleeding. You can also try contrast baths, which will relieve the tone of the pelvis, improve blood circulation and return inflamed veins to normal. To begin, do a steam sitz bath: boil four small onions in half a liter of milk. The intestines are pre-cleaned with an enema. And then you should sit over a container with onion milk decoction and steam the anus thoroughly with the vapors. Next is a cold bath. For a few minutes, lower your anus into a basin of very cold water diluted with potassium permanganate. Then lubricate the passage with sea buckthorn oil or any other medicinal ointment or herbal gruel, wrap yourself in a blanket, lie down and rest for at least an hour. Repeating these contrasting procedures every day for at least a week, you can significantly alleviate your condition and at least relieve the most painful manifestations of the disease.
Some useful tips
The name of this disease has long since becomecommon noun. Any troubles and annoying obstacles are called hemorrhoids. It is not for nothing that hemorrhoids are called toothache of the anus. But I would like to place special emphasis on the well-known phrase that any disease is easier to prevent than to treat. And hemorrhoids are not an exception in this regard. All that is needed is to prevent stagnation in the body. With a sedentary lifestyle, do light warm-up exercises as often as possible. It is recommended to walk more in the fresh air. Walking itself is very useful and prevents the development of many diseases, and a set of light therapeutic exercises will not take much time, but will improve blood circulation and gas supply to blood vessels. The main advice: if possible, exclude the use of nicotine and alcohol and try to prevent constipation and long-term diarrhea. Eating a sufficient amount of fresh vegetables and fruits will improve the proper functioning of the digestive organs and normalize intestinal patency, which in turn will regulate stool. Strong tea and coffee also cause a rush of blood to the heart and pelvis, which has a very negative effect on the general condition of the body and the circulatory system as a whole. The main thing is not to forget the simple truth - our health is in our hands.
