How to treat anal fissure bleeding

For bleeding from anal fissures, you need to pay attention to correct care and adjustment methods. You should develop good bowel habits and avoid constipation. You should also eat scientifically, try to avoid spicy foods, and drink plenty of water.

1. Smooth bowel movements

Long-term constipation is the main cause of anal fissure. Therefore, maintaining smooth bowel movements is crucial to the prevention of anal fissure. Patients should develop a habit of daily bowel movements, regularly increase outdoor activities, and take laxatives when necessary, such as liquid paraffin, fruit laxative tablets, etc. They can also use Chinese medicine rhubarb, Panxie leaves, etc. to make tea and drink, which can soften the stool and facilitate defecation. Taking a hot water bath after defecation can improve local blood circulation, promote inflammation absorption, relieve pain, and relieve the patient's nervousness to facilitate defecation. Adjust the mentality: strengthen the education of anal fissure hygiene knowledge, explain to patients in detail the pathogenesis, prognosis and recovery of the disease, so as to relieve patients' tension, enhance their confidence in fighting the disease, and thus keep their mood comfortable and peaceful.

2. Adjust your diet

Reasonable meal arrangement is helpful to ensure smooth bowel movements. You should eat more fresh fruits, vegetables and crude fiber foods, eat less or avoid spicy and irritating foods, and drink more water to ensure that the gastrointestinal tract has abundant digestive juice secretion, which is beneficial to gastrointestinal motility and prevent constipation.

3. Pay attention to diet therapy

Regular consumption of crude fiber foods can stimulate gastrointestinal motility and facilitate defecation. Some foods that have the effect of nourishing blood and moistening the intestines, such as longan meat, jujube, walnut, sesame, fungus, mulberry kernel, pine kernel, etc., can be eaten regularly, or made into medicinal diet therapy recipes, such as longan meat porridge, sesame cake, fried pine nuts with corn, fried walnuts with lean meat, etc., which can moisturize the intestines and promote bowel movements, and promote wound healing.

4. Pay attention to hygiene

Keeping the anus clean, cleaning it in time after defecation, taking frequent baths, and changing underwear frequently can effectively prevent infection. If the amount of bleeding is heavy, you should go to the hospital for treatment. If the amount is small, you should strengthen observation and pay attention to eating blood-enriching nutritional supplements and foods to enhance the body's resistance.

5. Take a sitz bath

Take a sitz bath with warm potassium permanganate water before and after defecation, 2 to 3 times a day, each time for 20 to 30 minutes. Sitz bath can relax the anal sphincter, relieve pain, improve local blood circulation, promote the absorption of inflammation, and facilitate the healing of anal fissures.
