Can you drink beer if you have internal hemorrhoids bleeding?
During the bleeding phase of internal hemorrhoids, patients should not drink beer or other alcoholic beverages, nor eat spicy and stimulating foods such as chili peppers and seafood. This is because both drinking alcohol and consuming spicy, stimulating foods can cause the mucous membrane in the anal area to become congested. If there are any bleeding spots locally, the likelihood and volume of bleeding will be greater than normal. Therefore, further hemostatic treatment is necessary during the bleeding period. If alcohol is consumed, the volume of bleeding will increase and the severity of the bleeding condition will become worse. It is recommended that patients use external hemorrhoid creams for hemostasis, or take oral hemostatic drugs for symptomatic treatment. If the bleeding is substantial or the condition is not under control, further surgical treatment may be needed. (Please use medication under the guidance of a doctor.)
