Publish Date： 2024/8/12
The 17 day long Paris Olympics officially came to an end at 02:00 Beijing time on August 12th, with the Chinese national team ending with a brilliant record of 40 gold, 27 silver, and 24 bronze medals!
I believe many people's summary of these 17 days is "working hard during the day and staying up late to watch the game at night". Despite the challenges brought by the time difference, patriotism remains consistent. On every passionate night, various delicious foods accompany you - fried chicken, duck goods, crayfish paired with cold beer and drinks, allowing your taste buds to revel in the late night. Although your appetite has been satisfied, is your "chrysanthemum" okay? Next, I will teach you several tips to effectively relieve the pain of "chrysanthemum"!
Dietary adjustments are key
Eating foods rich in dietary fiber, such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, etc., can help soften feces, reduce friction and pain during defecation; Maintain sufficient water intake, with a recommended daily water intake of no less than 1500 to 2000 milliliters, to keep the intestines moist and promote smooth bowel movements.
Moderate application of ice or heat is necessary
Choose cold or hot compress according to the doctor's advice and personal situation. Cold compress is a local cold compress around the anus, which helps to reduce swelling and pain. It should be noted that this method is generally suitable for 1-2 days before an acute attack. When accompanied by severe pain, short-term ice compress can be performed, but the duration should not be too long to avoid worsening the condition. Hot compress usually requires lying on the bed and placing a hot water bottle at the anus, which can promote blood circulation and relieve muscle tension. However, it should be noted that high temperatures should be avoided during hot compress to prevent skin burns. In addition, you can also take a sitz bath with warm water around the anus, and add some potassium permanganate solution to the water appropriately, which can have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects.
Scientific medication is indispensable
Under the guidance of a doctor, use topical medications such as hemorrhoid cream and hemorrhoid suppositories in a reasonable manner. These medications have anti-inflammatory, analgesic, hemostatic and other effects, and can effectively alleviate hemorrhoid symptoms.
