What to do if a pregnant woman has hemorrhoids

Pregnant women are relatively weak during pregnancy. They are particularly prone to hemorrhoids during this period. Especially when pregnant women reach the third trimester, their stomachs will become larger. The pressure from the stomach at this time will cause intestinal discomfort and leg pain, which will gradually compress the anus and cause hemorrhoids. So what should you do if you have severe hemorrhoid pain in the third trimester?

Hemorrhoids are a very painful disease, especially at this time. The better method is, first of all, do not make the stool too dry, do not eat irritating food, wash with permanganate water, warm water, try to squat or sit less, lie down more, and then use some topical medicine.

During pregnancy, but now combined with hemorrhoids, the symptoms are still relatively severe, the pain is also quite severe, and there is another one who is not due yet. Hemorrhoid surgery can be performed. It should take about one month to recover after hemorrhoid surgery, and hemorrhoid surgery has little effect on the fetus. You can go to the general surgery clinic to see if there is an indication for surgery.

Pregnant women are generally more susceptible to hemorrhoids due to lack of exercise. If there is no bleeding or pain, do not treat it for the time being. It is recommended that you pay more attention to your diet. Avoid spicy foods. Keep your anus clean and drink plenty of water. If the condition is severe after giving birth, hemorrhoidectomy can be performed.

The worsening of hemorrhoids in the late pregnancy is also related to the enlarged uterus of the fetus compressing the perianal vascular tissue. Generally, topical medications have little effect on the fetus, and hemorrhoids are currently mostly treated with topical suppositories or ointments. At the same time, you should drink more warm water and eat more vegetables and fruits. You should not sit or squat for a long time. You should ensure regular bowel movements every day. Consider systemic medication or surgical treatment after the fetus is born.

Since no detailed physical examination was performed, the analysis is not very good. But based on your description, the most effective way is surgical resection. However, considering that you are currently pregnant, surgery is unlikely, and conservative treatment with medication is recommended. Pay attention to your own condition, avoid sitting or standing for long periods of time, get enough rest, and check fetal heart rate regularly to understand the condition of the fetus.

The main consideration at present is internal hemorrhoids, which leads to prolapse after defecation, and may also be accompanied by mixed hemorrhoids. It is recommended that you do not take oral medication during pregnancy. You can take a warm water sitz bath every night, use anal plugs and hemorrhoidal suppositories, and apply Mayinglong Musk Hemorrhoid Ointment externally, which should provide some relief.

In this case, it is best not to undergo surgery, and symptomatic treatment should be the main approach. You can use some hemorrhoid cream, and also eat more vegetables and fruits.
