Patient's question:
Prostatitis often requires straining to urinate, which frequently increases abdominal pressure and requires forceful anal effort for a whole day. Recently, a thorough examination revealed mild rectal prolapse, slight hemorrhoids, and enteritis. Currently, I cannot relax my anus at all, and it feels particularly tight—could it be due to constant straining? In the past, I often strained to urinate because of rectal prolapse, hemorrhoids, and enteritis. What should I do now?Doctor's answer:
When you strain the anus, the anal opening becomes a weak, fleshy lump, and then it retracts when you don't strain it. This condition is often seen in hemorrhoids. It is recommended to visit the colorectal department of a local hospital for a thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis. Maintain a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods. You can visit the colorectal department again for a detailed examination to confirm the diagnosis. If it is hemorrhoids, hemorrhoid cream and other treatments can be used. Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term oral medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
