Hemorrhoids are not terrible, so don’t be too embarrassed.
Early examination and treatment, and active improvement of living habits are the serious things.
Whether it is to prevent hemorrhoids or recurrence of hemorrhoids, there are 4 [golden rules] that I hope you can understand:
Concentrate on going to the toilet
The so-called concentration on going to the toilet mainly has two aspects.
On the one hand, it is to form regular defecation habits and carry out regular defecation 1-2 times a day. This period of time is the best time for defecation, such as getting up in the morning and eating for 1 hour.
On the other hand, it is necessary to focus on defecation: do not play with mobile phones, do not read books or newspapers, and control defecation time within 5 minutes. Relax anus when defecating, and do not hold your breath. When defecation is difficult, you can press your left lower abdomen with your hand, which will help defecation.
Have a good meal
Eat three meals well, that is, eat healthily.
First of all, the daily amount of drinking water should not be less than 2000 ml. Generally, the mineral water we buy is 500 ml, so the daily amount of drinking water should not be less than 4 bottles of mineral water.
In order to ensure smooth defecation, we can eat more vegetables and fruits rich in dietary fiber, such as celery, spinach, mushroom, apple, grapefruit, pitaya, etc.
On the staple food, some coarse grains, such as corn, oats and whole grains, can be appropriately added. Try to eat less spicy and greasy stimulating foods in taste.
Exercise more at ordinary times
Everyone can carry out regular fitness according to their hobbies and specialties. In addition, you can consciously do some anal lifting training.
The function of levator anus training is mainly to promote the blood circulation of our anus part, including enhancing the strength of sphincter and improving the function of sphincter.
How to do anal lifting training? You can imagine how you feel when you hold your stool. Tighten your anus, lift it up, then relax it, then tighten your anus, lift it up, relax it again… Just lift it up and loosen it again and again.
When we are skilled, we can carry out anal lifting training according to the rhythm of breathing. When we inhale, we lift the anus hard, tighten the anus, and relax the anus when we breathe.
Do it for 5 ~ 10 minutes at a time, preferably once in the morning and evening.
Speak hygiene after defecation
When we talk about hygiene after defecation, we do not mean washing hands, but … keeping anal hygiene.
First of all, let’s talk about the knowledge in wiping.
When wiping your buttocks after defecation, it is best to wipe from the front to the back. Because the human reproductive organs are in front of the anus, if you wipe them from the back to the front, dirty toilet paper is likely to pollute the reproductive organs. In addition to paying attention to the direction of wiping, you should also pay attention to the intensity of wiping. Don’t use too much force. If you use too much force, you may scratch the skin around the anus.
Next, let’s talk about washing.
When cleaning, pay attention to warm water, do not need to use special lotion, just use clear water to clean. After cleaning, you can use paper towel to clean dry water.
Incidentally, friends who are fatter or sweat easily may also consider using talcum powder around the anus to keep the anus clean and dry.
