Patient's question:
Having difficulty defecating, sometimes the skin has been broken for a long time like this. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: : No treatment, what kind of assistance is needed: How can it be improved?...Doctor's answer:
This should be a symptom of cracked skin caused by hemorrhoids, which are induced by constipation. The key to treating habitual constipation lies in establishing scientific and reasonable bowel habits, dietary, and lifestyle routines. Develop the habit of squatting on the toilet at fixed times (regardless of whether you have the urge to defecate or not, or whether you can actually pass stool), and do not hold it in when you feel the urge—go to the bathroom immediately. This helps establish a normal conditioned reflex for defecation. Your diet should include coarse vegetables and fruits rich in dietary fiber, as well as sufficient amounts of rough, high-fiber grains like standard flour, tubers, and corn. Fatty foods, cool boiled water, and honey are also beneficial for bowel movements. In terms of lifestyle, balance work and rest, and engage in regular physical exercise. Abdominal massage is also helpful for defecation. The method involves massaging from the lower right abdomen to the lower left abdomen in a clockwise direction, once in the morning and once in the evening, with each session consisting of 50–100 strokes. It is essential to pay attention to a proper diet, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and drinking plenty of water and eating more fruits. The above advice is for the question "How should habitual constipation be treated?" and is hoped to assist you. Wishing you good health!
