Patients with perianal abscess after operation must do a good job of cleaning and nursing around anus.
The first step of anal nursing is to ensure that the perianal area is clean, and then rinse the anus with water after defecation. Wiping with paper will only wipe the stool into the folds and wounds of the anus The harder you try to clean, the deeper the stool will be embedded, which will lead to bacterial reproduction and aggravate inflammation and edema. So wash the anus with running water after defecation every time. At the same time, water can avoid pain, some hemorrhoids, let alone wipe with paper, even dare not touch. You can install a smart toilet lid at home or take a shower after defecation. A more convenient way is to prepare a hand-held towel, which can be filled with clean water to wash the anus after defecation, and can also be carried with you when you go out to work.
The second method of anus care is to sit in a warm bath at about 37℃ for at least ten minutes every night. Although it is not used, it may be the best "prescription" for treating hemorrhoids. Sitting bath can accelerate venous blood circulation, eliminate edema and promote healing. But squatting will also increase the risk of wound tearing, which requires the use of anal hydrotherapy device, placed on the toilet, comfortable sitting bath.
The third key point of anal nursing is to keep the anus suspended when sitting, and not to oppress the perianal blood vessels. You can prepare an anal pad with a special shape, which can make the anus hang and breathe, promote venous blood return, accelerate edema elimination and wound healing, and avoid tenderness. Many patients with severe hemorrhoids can't even travel by car. With the anal protection pad, they can sit down normally, work or eat comfortably, and maintain a good mental state.
In addition, we must prevent constipation. If constipation occurs, it will aggravate the pain of the wound. For example, some patients say that defecation is like pulling a glass. Many patients don't go to the toilet because they are afraid of pain, which makes it more difficult to discharge dry stool and aggravate the pain. In addition, the stool stays in the intestine, and the bacteria and harmful substances in the stool will infect the wound, thus aggravating the pain. Therefore, in the diet, we should eat more foods rich in dietary fiber such as wheat bran, oats and celery in advance.
Anal care products, you can go to the hospital to open an anorectal rehabilitation package, but hospitals are generally more expensive, and you can also buy them from Taobao. If you don't take good care of the anus and let the disease develop, you will inevitably get another knife in the future.
