During normal childbirth, episiotomy or perineum protection may be performed during childbirth, and the perineum may be slightly lacerated. The wound is close to the anus, which sometimes causes anal pain. The following methods can be used to alleviate it:

1. If the wound causes anal pain, you can apply a facial mask, ice pack, or use a pain-relieving suppository to relieve the symptoms;

2. In addition, bowel movements should be maintained smoothly. Do not skip bowel movements or meals for fear of pain, which will affect wound healing and constipation.

3. If the pain during defecation is more obvious, you can use enema to help defecation;

4. Excessive force during childbirth may cause hemorrhoids to slip out of the anus, which may cause hemorrhoid edema and hemorrhoid incarceration. In severe cases, hemorrhoid incarceration may cause necrosis of the slipped hemorrhoids. It is necessary to force the slipped hemorrhoids back into the anus, apply warm saline cotton pads to the anus to relieve pain, and train the anus to contract to prevent the hemorrhoids from slipping again. If it slips again, you can still use techniques to put it back and repeat the above method. For severe hemorrhoids, surgical treatment is recommended after breastfeeding.
