Should I Seek Treatment for a Painless, Itchless Hemorrhoid with a Lump?

Generally refer to piles. Piles are painless lumps of flesh. If the lump is small, generally no treatment is required. However, if the lump is large, treatment may be necessary. Piles are usually related to congestion, hematoma, and enlargement of the venous plexus in the anal canal or the lower part of the rectum, which may lead to local venous enlargement and even the formation of pile mass. If the lump is small and not accompanied by other obvious discomforting symptoms, generally no special treatment is required. Warm water sitz baths can be taken to promote blood circulation and prevent the condition from progressing. If the lump is large, affecting normal bowel movements, causing deformed stool or difficulty in defecation, etc., it is necessary to take drugs such as Maizhiling Tablets, Sodium Aescinate Tablets, and Diosmin Tablets under the guidance of a doctor to improve local microcirculation. If necessary, hemorrhoidectomy can also be performed to aid recovery from the disease. In daily life, it is advisable to wear clothes with good breathability and avoid wearing overly tight clothing. It is also necessary to change unhealthy habits and avoid eating spicy and stimulating foods such as chili peppers and ginger, as they may cause dilation of local capillaries and affect recovery.
