Qualified specialists advise you before birth to prevent this disease.
Hemorrhoids refers to a disease that occurs during the process of vein overflow in the anus of the blood passage. Such overcrowded, enlarged and entwined veins in medicine are called hemorrhoidal nodes.
The main cause of hemorrhoidal disease after delivery is increased pressure on the intra-abdominal area, which occurs during several months of pregnancy, and at the onset of labor, this pressure is increased several times.
The causes of hemorrhoids after childbirth are also the sedentary lifestyle of the future mother, disrupted and improper nutrition, the presence of congenital problems with the veins, the very frequent use of various laxatives and enemas, the intake of hormonal contraceptives, the lifting of heavy objects, the abuse of alcoholic beverages and excess weight.
There are two types of hemorrhoidal disease: internal and external. If the external hemorrhoids can be seen and even probed, the inner hemorrhoid can not be found, since its hemorrhoids are located on the inner walls of the anus. Internal hemorrhoids are considered the most dangerous for women after childbirth, as this disease is accompanied by severe bleeding, which can cause anemia.
Hemorrhoids are determined by the characteristic signs, which are revealed during examination with the attending physician. Examination of the rectum occurs both external and internal (it is also called digital). In some cases, the doctors are exploring the rectal area with the help of a special device, and this procedure is called a sigmoidoscopy.
It is necessary to treat hemorrhoids for future mothers, since if they do not do this during pregnancy, this can affect the course of pregnancy and during labor in the form of severe bleeding and inflammatory diseases.
The doctor the proctologist first of all will advise such patients correct nutrition with obligatory presence in a ration of a sufficient quantity of cellulose. Restoration of a stool in a pregnant woman in a normal direction will facilitate the transfer of this disease.
The second step in the treatment of hemorrhoids will be the restoration of normal physical form: daily walks and exercise with therapeutic gymnastics. In parallel, the proctologist appoints special hemorrhoidal suppositories and ointments.
In order to protect yourself from such an unpleasant disease as hemorrhoids, it is necessary to carry out prophylaxis. To do this, you need to lead a normal moving lifestyle: to conduct various walking tours, to perform various exercises that are necessary to increase the muscles of the pelvic region. A set of special medical exercises are appointed by your doctor. In this case, you need to take into account the fact that some pregnant women these procedures are contraindicated, so be sure to consult a doctor.
Pregnant women also need to remember that in no case should you wear tightening and embarrassing clothes.
