Pregnant women are prone to constipation during pregnancy. Severe constipation can cause anal fissures, which are very uncomfortable. Therefore, pregnant women must eat less spicy food, exercise moderately, drink plenty of water, and try not to get constipated. As long as they are not constipated, anal fissures will not occur. What is anal fissure? Anal fissure is a ridge-shaped crack or ulcer formed when the skin of the anal canal below the dentate line breaks. It is a common anal canal disease that occurs more frequently in young and middle-aged people and children, but less frequently in the elderly. Early prevention and treatment of anal fissure should be advocated. Some people never suffer from anal fissures in their entire lives. The experience is to keep their stools soft, have regular bowel movements, and avoid bad habits of squatting for long periods of time. This is the fundamental way to prevent anal fissures. What should pregnant women do if anal fissures bleed? Pregnant women with anal fissures should develop the habit of defecating in the morning. After getting up in the morning, a person's body position changes from lying down to standing, and the gastrointestinal motility is enhanced, both of which are conducive to promoting defecation. Moderate exercise in the morning, such as doing calisthenics, practicing Tai Chi, practicing Qigong, etc., can prevent constipation. After constipation occurs, you can use drugs to lubricate and relieve constipation, but use laxatives with caution. Although these laxatives can make the stool thinner, they can also cause constipation after diarrhea and aggravate anal fissures. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can use general painkillers in short periods of time and in small doses to relieve pain. It is best to take them after meals to reduce the adverse reactions of the drugs to the stomach. Bathing At the same time, pregnant women with anal fissures can take a sitz bath: a warm water sitz bath before defecation can relax the anal sphincter and reduce the impact of feces on the anal fissure. Taking a sitz bath after defecation can wash away fecal residue, reduce foreign body irritation, and relieve sphincter spasms and anal pain. In addition, you can also eat more fruits and vegetables that help with bowel movements, such as pears, bananas, corn with high fiber content, fungus, and leeks. People with poor gastrointestinal function or stomach problems should soak pears in boiling water before eating them to reduce stomach coldness. |
