Patient's question:
Prostate hyperplasia, diagnosed in 2008, with frequent urination and urgency, less likely to occur in summer, more frequent in cold weather. Confirmed with Chengdu Jiulong examination that I have this disease.Doctor's answer:
Hemorrhoids, also known as rectal prolapse, is a condition where the rectal mucosa, anal canal, the entire rectal wall, and part of the sigmoid colon descend and protrude outside the anus. It is more common in physically frail children and the elderly, as well as in tall and thin individuals. The treatment for this condition includes internal and external medication, acupuncture, injection, and surgical procedures.Internal treatment focuses on replenishing qi, elevating and lifting, and reinforcing containment. For external hemorrhoids, traditional Chinese medicine is used for steaming and washing or applying topical medications to astringent and consolidate. Acupuncture helps to replenish qi and reinforce containment, enhance pelvic tension, and strengthen the supportive and stabilizing function of the rectum. Injection with (hardening agents) causes adhesion and fixation between the rectum and surrounding tissues or layers of the rectum, preventing further descent. Ligation procedures can remove parts of the prolapsed mucosa and artificially create scars, leading to adhesion, fixation, and support.
Modern medicine now employs transabdominal rectal suspension and fixation techniques.
