How to Treat Hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids can generally be treated through dietary adjustment, sitz baths, oral medication, topical medication, and other methods.

1. Dietary Adjustment

Patients with hemorrhoids can consume more foods rich in vitamins and dietary fiber, such as apples, bananas, pitaya, spinach, and cucumbers. These foods can stimulate gastrointestinal motility and soften stool to a certain extent, improving constipation in patients with hemorrhoids.

2. Sitz Baths

When patients experience local pain, swelling, and other discomfort, they can also relieve these symptoms by taking sitz baths, which can accelerate local blood flow and help alleviate symptoms.

3. Oral Medication

Patients can take Diosmin Tablets, Lactulose Oral Solution, Ibuprofen Tablets, and other medications under the guidance of a doctor. These medications can reduce swelling and relieve pain, alleviating symptoms such as bleeding, pain, and edema caused by hemorrhoids.

4. Topical Medication

Improvement can also be achieved through topical medication as prescribed by a doctor. Commonly used drugs include Erythromycin Ointment, Chlortetracycline Hydrochloride Ointment, Compound Carrageenate Cream, etc.

In addition, treatment can also be performed through rubber band ligation, infrared coagulation therapy, hemorrhoidectomy, and other methods. Regular exercise, such as yoga and jogging, is recommended to avoid prolonged sitting.
