A separate topic about discomfort in the anus is hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are, in fact, an expansion of the vessels of the rectum, characterized by bleeding from the anal opening and unpleasant sensations, as well as pain in the rectum. Hemorrhoids can occur for the following reasons: a sedentary lifestyle, chronic constipation, pregnancy, alcohol abuse, a lack of vitamins in the body, excessive attempts at bowel emptying. Most often, hemorrhoids occur in men.
Externally, the hemorrhoidal knot resembles a raspberry berry - a cyanotic or crimson color, a multitude of bulges.
The first sign of hemorrhoids is the appearance of blood during defecation, while the patient at first can not even experience any unpleasant sensations. Often, hemorrhoids are accompanied by itching in the anus.
To ease the symptoms of hemorrhoids, take warm baths with broths of medicinal herbs daily, apply compresses from aspen leaves to the hemorrhoids, insert a candle cut from raw potatoes into the anus, and rub the nodes with freshly squeezed juice of berries of mountain ash.
An ancient folk way of treating hemorrhoids is leeches (hirudotherapy). Leeches with hemorrhoids are placed on the coccyx and near the anus. Also, the leech is put on the lump itself, when the leech pours blood from the cones, it will fall off itself, and the cone will pass within a couple of days.
If the symptoms of hemorrhoids are very disturbing to you, you should consult a proctologist. Modern technologies struggle with hemorrhoids as follows: the hemorrhoidal node is frozen, which contributes to its further rejection. This procedure is not very pleasant, but almost painless, is carried out without hospitalization of the patient and does not cause harm to health.
