Mr. Tsai, 52, a chauffeur, has to be sedentary for a long time because of his work, but he is afraid to drink water for fear of traffic congestion, so he suffers from constipation and hemorrhoids at the same time, and it takes half an hour to relieve himself every time he goes to the toilet. Last month, when he went to the toilet after returning home, he ruptured his hemorrhoids and spurted blood from his anus, and finally fainted before his family took him to the hospital, where he returned home to recuperate after a blood transfusion.
Chinese medicine doctor Sheng-Pu Lee said, high temperature, hot weather is the peak of hemorrhoids! Recently, it was found that the number of patients seeking treatment for hemorrhoids has increased by 20%, mostly due to the hot weather and water loss, resulting in intestinal fire in the body, but also closely related to lifestyle habits, such as staying up late, eating spicy and stimulating food, or many people like to slide the smartphone while going to the toilet, lengthening the time spent in the toilet will increase the chance of hemorrhoid attacks, the lighter the hard stool or constipation, the more serious fear of injury to the anal artery to cause massive bleeding. In serious cases, it is feared that the anal artery will be injured and cause massive bleeding.
According to Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee, the Chinese medicine point of view, hemorrhoids is “intestinal fire for a long time, blood stagnation” caused by the varicose veins near the anus, therefore, the real cause of hemorrhoids in the stagnant blood stasis. The general public often have incorrect myths about defecation, such as defecation should be clean, the anus should be hard and defecation should be flushed immediately after the flush, on this, Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee thinks that people suffering from hemorrhoids often feel that the defecation is not clean enough, so they stretch the toilet time, and even more and more hard, but in fact, these actions will aggravate the symptoms of hemorrhoids.
The treatment for hemorrhoids in Western medicine is mostly surgery, which can immediately remove the lesion, but if the root of the problem is not regulated, hemorrhoids will easily recur. Clinical Chinese medicine treatment is based on anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling, improving rectal stenosis and helping to lift the Qi of the rectum, starting from the root, so that the anus can be strongly lifted upward, allowing the stagnant blood in the veins to dissipate, strengthening the vascular contraction force, and effectively preventing the recurrence of hemorrhoids.
Dr. Sheng-Pu Lee suggested that the most fundamental way to prevent hemorrhoids is to do a good job of ” 8 methods to prevent hemorrhoids “, eliminating toxins in the intestine; doctor advised, do not play cell phones when going to the toilet, after defecation can take a look at the stool, if you find that the stool becomes smaller and not easy to expel, or often with blood and other abnormal conditions, beware of colon pathology, should seek medical attention as soon as possible.
