Useful. Bleeding is one of the main clinical manifestations of internal hemorrhoids, and the amount of bleeding can be large or small, generally bright red in color. The treatment methods for internal hemorrhoids are divided into conservative treatment and surgical treatment, and infusion can be used in both. In conservative treatment, infusion can administer hemostatic drugs to stop bleeding, or some nutritional drugs to reduce stool and protect the mucosa. For surgical patients, infusion can include antibiotics to prevent infection.

What foods should be avoided if there is bleeding from internal hemorrhoids?

Internal hemorrhoids bleeding is the main clinical symptom of internal hemorrhoids; the amount of bleeding can vary greatly and is usually bright red. It can spray out or drip out. Patients with internal hemorrhoids bleeding are advised to avoid eating chili peppers and drinking alcohol. This is because chili peppers contain a component called capsaicin, which strongly irritates the gastrointestinal mucosa and can dilate blood vessels, exacerbating the bleeding. Alcohol can also dilate blood vessels and worsen the bleeding.

How to relieve pain and swelling from internal hemorrhoids prolapse?

Internal hemorrhoids prolapse with pain and swelling. This is often due to inflammatory edema or thrombosis caused by the prolapse, which leads to pain and swelling. At this time, you can choose to apply lidocaine gel externally or apply golden ointment externally for anti-swelling and analgesic effects. You can also choose to insert sodium diclofenac suppositories into the anus, which has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, and take diosmin tablets orally to relieve anal swelling, as well as use anal cleansers or potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths to eliminate local bacteria and secretions, and reduce local infectious inflammation. After using the medication, it is still recommended to go to the hospital's proctology department as soon as possible for treatments like internal hemorrhoid banding, PPH, or TST, because the swelling of prolapsed internal hemorrhoids indicates a severe condition, and mere medication alone cannot achieve effective treatment outcomes.

The Difference between Mixed Hemorrhoids and Internal Hemorrhoids

Mixed hemorrhoids and internal hemorrhoids are both clinical types of hemorrhoids. Generally speaking, mixed hemorrhoids mainly occur simultaneously with both internal and external hemorrhoids, while internal hemorrhoids are mainly local mucosal bulges near the dentate line in the anal canal. Both mixed and internal hemorrhoids belong to hemorrhoids, so there are many similarities in treatment. However, since mixed hemorrhoids generally involve both internal and external hemorrhoids acting together, they are generally more severe than internal hemorrhoids alone. Treatment for both mixed and internal hemorrhoids can involve conservative medication, primarily focusing on topical applications; for mixed hemorrhoids, local anal suppositories and hemorrhoidal ointment applications are commonly used, while treatment for internal hemorrhoids primarily involves hemorrhoidal suppositories. If both mixed and internal hemorrhoids meet certain surgical criteria, surgical treatment can be chosen. The surgical approach for mixed hemorrhoids mainly includes excision and ligation, while the surgical approach for internal hemorrhoids mainly involves hemorrhoid ligation or hemorrhoid banding. (Note: This answer is for reference only, use medication under the guidance of a professional physician, do not self-medicate.)

Can I exercise more if I have internal hemorrhoids bleeding?

If the patient is in a period of internal hemorrhoids bleeding, it is not advised for the patient to engage in excessive exercise and physical training, as the local mucosa is ruptured and bleeding during this period. Excessive exercise can potentially increase the pressure inside the local blood vessels, thereby increasing the amount of bleeding or worsening the condition. During internal hemorrhoids bleeding, related hemostatic treatments are necessary to prevent anemia from long-term repeated bleeding. Treatment mainly involves oral or topical hemostatic drugs. In terms of exercise and training, it is recommended to primarily walk gently and avoid vigorous exercises. If conservative medication does not effectively treat the bleeding, surgical ligation can also be considered for hemostasis. (Please use medications under the guidance of a doctor.)

What department should I go to at the hospital for internal hemorrhoids?

Patients with internal hemorrhoids should go to the proctology department at the hospital, because internal hemorrhoids are venous clusters that grow above the dentate line of the rectum. The main symptom is rectal bleeding, along with prolapse, pain, anal itching, and a feeling of heaviness around the anus as the primary clinical manifestations. Proctologists have a good knowledge base about diseases around the anal area and are well-versed in diagnosing and treating internal hemorrhoids, as well as managing post-surgical recovery. Therefore, it is appropriate for patients with internal hemorrhoids to consult the proctology department after arriving at the hospital.
