What should I do if I have vaginal bleeding after rectal cancer surgery?

Vaginal bleeding after rectal cancer surgery is a normal phenomenon, and it may also be caused by factors such as lack of dietary care, infection, etc. Generally speaking, it can be treated by strengthening life care, dietary care and drug application.

1. Normal phenomenon:

The causes of rectal cancer are related to dietary factors, genetic factors, etc. After the disease occurs, as the tumor volume increases, the intestinal cavity volume will decrease, and the rectum will be irritated, mainly manifested as changes in bowel habits, anal falling sensation, etc. If the patient undergoes surgical treatment, the local soft tissue cannot be completely healed in a short period of time, and vaginal bleeding will occur at this time. This is a normal reaction after surgery and usually does not require special treatment. Pay more attention to rest.

2. Failure to strengthen dietary care:

If you overeat or eat hard foods such as dried fruits and fried chicken after rectal cancer surgery, it is easy to increase the burden on the rectum or cause local irritation and damage, so a small amount of vaginal bleeding may occur. At this time, you should correct bad eating habits in time and pay attention to eating small amounts.

3. Infection factors:

If personal care is not strengthened after rectal cancer surgery, local capillaries will also rupture and bleed under the continuous stimulation of inflammation, so abnormal vaginal bleeding may occur. It is recommended to use antibiotics such as amoxicillin capsules, cephalosporin granules, and penicillin V potassium tablets under the guidance of a doctor.

In addition to the common causes mentioned above, it may also be caused by cancer metastasis.
