What to do if you have moles after giving birth

Postpartum hemorrhoids are a relatively common disease. This is closely related to the fact that the enlarged uterus of new mothers during pregnancy affects their blood circulation. In addition, because they often sit for a long time during pregnancy, it is easy to cause venous thrombosis, which induces the occurrence of hemorrhoids. If a postpartum mother has hemorrhoids, she must seek treatment in time. After all, the harm is relatively large and it is easy to be infected by bacteria. In addition, you need to breastfeed your child. If you don't take care of it properly, it can easily lead to a decrease in immunity. If you get hemorrhoids, you need to take medication in time, pay attention to your diet, and develop good bowel habits.

The harm of postpartum hemorrhoids

1. Harm to women themselves

For the mother herself, in addition to having to endure the pain and difficulty in defecation caused by hemorrhoids, the greater harm is that if not treated for a long time, the bacteria will destroy the immune system through the blood and cause infections in the genitals, breasts, pelvis and appendages. In addition, it also greatly increases the risk of colorectal cancer, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and other diseases.

2. Harm to the baby

What is more worrying for new mothers is that the hemorrhoidal lesions are extremely vulnerable to invasion by bacteria in the anus, leading to infection, and then producing a harmful substance called "SP hemorrhoidal poison", which on the one hand threatens the woman's own immune system, and on the other hand also affects the health of the baby. For postpartum women, "SP hemorrhoidal poison" can infect the mammary glands, contaminate the milk source, and directly affect the quality of milk. In addition, it will enter the baby's body through breast milk, causing the newborn baby's immunity to decline and increasing the baby's risk of colds, fevers, palpitations and various epidemic diseases.

How to treat postpartum hemorrhoids

For postpartum hemorrhoids, mothers should receive symptomatic treatment based on their own condition and try to avoid taking oral medications to prevent the medications from affecting the health of the baby and fetus through breast milk.

1. Increase water intake

At first, drink more water and eat more foods rich in dietary fiber to prevent dry and hard stools. Such as coarse grains (corn, millet, sorghum, oats, buckwheat, soybeans, red beans, mung beans), vegetables (wood ear, kelp, cauliflower, bamboo shoots, carrots, celery, pumpkin, spinach, etc.), nuts (walnut kernels, melon seeds, peanuts, etc.) and dried and fresh fruits (bananas, lemons, etc.).

2. Scientific Movement

You can also do self-abdominal massage through jogging, Tai Chi, and yoga. The specific steps are: place your right hand close to the point 4 fingers above your navel, and rub around the navel in a clockwise direction, applying moderate pressure while rubbing. It is best to rub once with one breath. Do three as a group, rest for two breaths, and repeat again. But be careful to press slowly when massaging and rubbing, until your palm is completely close to the navel. End after ten groups. In addition, you can also exercise the anus, or hold your bowel movements. When you lift the anal sphincter, you should inhale slowly and pull your navel inward. Then relax the anal sphincter. Be sure to exhale slowly and repeat this. You can try it every morning and evening, and do it thirty times each time. It is best to lie on your back in bed and exercise your anus lift when you just wake up in the morning. This will help develop a good habit of defecating after getting up every morning and accelerate the healing of hemorrhoids.

3. Choose topical medication appropriately

Medicines for external use, such as ointments, suppositories, laxatives, etc., can help postpartum women to have smooth bowel movements (use laxatives with caution); soaking in medicated sitz baths can accelerate blood circulation and gradually relieve constipation. The soaking basin method is also very good. Once you add disinfectant and warm water in a certain proportion, soak for about 3 days, there will be a certain effect. You can use it once every morning and evening, each time for about ten minutes to a quarter of an hour. Disinfectant must be purchased from a regular pharmacy and used according to the instructions.

4. Develop good living habits

A good life routine is very important for postpartum women. They should have regular bowel movements every day, preferably around 7 o'clock in the morning. At this time, the intestinal meridians are active, which facilitates bowel movements and keeps the bowels smooth. After defecation, the skin around the anus becomes dry and peeling, which makes it impossible to be completely clean and sterile. Hemorrhoids can easily fall out, causing swelling and inflammation around the anus, and the hemorrhoid infection becomes increasingly serious. At the same time, these dirts irritate the anus, causing itching and aggravating the infection. Therefore, you must insist on washing the vulva with warm water after defecation to keep it clean and hygienic. Underwear should also be changed frequently. It is worth mentioning that women's underwear must be washed separately and not mixed with other clothes. This is conducive to maintaining the hygiene of the underwear and preventing secondary infection or cross infection.

5. Surgery if necessary

If postpartum hemorrhoids are severe and fistula is serious, you must seek medical attention promptly and undergo surgery.
