Hemorrhoids occur quite often in pregnant women, but for a long time this ailment does not manifest itself in any way. The expectant mother does not feel "nothing like that", and hemorrhoids become an unpleasant surprise during a routine scheduled visit to a gynecologist or surgeon. Even if during pregnancy the expectant mother was not bothered by itching in the anus and painful bowel movements (these are the signs of the first stage of hemorrhoids), hemorrhoids can worsen during childbirth - this happens in 50% of women. Indeed, when the child passes through the small pelvis, the organs and tissues of the woman in labor are squeezed, and the venous plexus suffers first of all.
Necessary
- - dairy products,
- - foods with fiber,
- - vegetables,
- - fruits,
- - cool shower,
- - a small pillow.
Instructions
Step 1
The expectant mother needs to improve the work of the intestines. Her friends - fruits and vegetables, dairy products and foods rich in fiber, and enemies - salty, spicy, spicy, peppery, pickled dishes and, of course, alcoholic drinks - all this increases the blood filling of the veins of the pelvic day and, above all, hemorrhoidal venous plexuses …
Step 2
Exercising will help fight hemorrhoids: it is useful to lie on your back for 15 minutes 2 - 3 times a day with the pelvis raised (for example, on a small pillow).
Step 3
It is important to avoid hypothermia (especially in the lower body). Pregnant women should not sit on cold surfaces. They should also avoid prolonged standing or sitting work.
Step 4
After each bowel movement, wash yourself with cool water. You can arrange short (up to a minute) ascending cold irrigation of the anal area, turning the shower upside down.
Step 5
In case of complication, the doctor may prescribe special local medicines approved for use during the period and breastfeeding, which not only help to cope with the symptoms of hemorrhoids, but also help to soften the contents of the intestines.
