Patient's question:
A woman is 25 years old this year. For a while, she felt very tired and went to the hospital for a check-up, only to find out that she was sick. Please ask: What should I do if hemorrhoids and the anus are swollen after childbirth?Doctor's answer:
For postpartum hemorrhoids, symptoms such as redness and swelling can be relieved by soaking in potassium permanganate solution followed by the external use of hemorrhoid suppositories or hemorrhoid cream. Avoid using other medications for the time being to prevent harm to the child. Consume more vegetables and fruits rich in rough fiber, maintain regular bowel movements to prevent constipation, avoid spicy foods and alcohol, and develop good bowel habits, defecating on time. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible based on their specific conditions to receive targeted treatment and recover quickly.
