Treatment of hemorrhoids is one thing ... treatment of hemorrhoids during pregnancy is another. If you develop hemorrhoids during your pregnancy, or if you already have them be worse, actions you take will be mainly comfort measures. Unless there are complications, such as a bride (thrombosis), of a hemorrhoids or excessive bleeding, it is very unlikely that you would have aggressive treatment during this period.
Hemorrhoids, bottom line reason is increased pressure in the pelvis. Growing baby has something to do with, of course, but we can see how to avoid the other contributing factors, so you can focus on warm and fuzzy things and not on the burning, itching, bleeding hemorrhoids? Just Remember, however, to consult your doctor first to ensure that your symptoms are actually the result of hemorrhoids, and not something else that requires immediate treatment. So, that said, let's take a look at home care:
Avoid constipation at all costs! The passage of hard, dry stool increases cavities pressure and cuts and tears sensitive rektal and anal vessels causing pain, bleeding, and burning.
Increase your intake of dietary fiber (whole grain household electronics, cereal and pasta, raw and dried fruits and vegetables, beans, nuts, seeds). At the same time, reduce their intake of foods that are low, or devoid of fiber, such as white household machines, red meat, soft drinks).
Avoid excessive weight gain. Stay away from foods that are nutrient-empty calories (sweets, sweet cakes, sugar-laden soft drinks).
Avoid any foods that aggravate your symptoms. You will know these foods by keeping a food diary. Do four columns on a sheet of paper. Put the date in the first column; the food you have eaten or drunk on the day in question in the next, the symptoms you see in the next, and the date of symptoms in the fourth column. Keep in mind that some so symptoms will not appear until a day or so after the offending food, watch for patterns. For example, you may notice, consistent two days after you've eaten popcorn your hemorrhoids, bleeding. Remember, watch for patterns:
Food/beverages
Symptoms
Oatmeal, toast, juice, white bread, chili burger, mustard, diet Coke, potato chips, etc
Burning and bleeding
Practice good bowel hygiene by changing the way you move your bowels. Firstly, no strain or push stool. Let it come slowly and naturally. Urgent not dawdle on the toilet.
Team range rektal clean. Pat himself clean gently. Do not rub and do not use scented or scented wipes or soaps in your anal region. They are annoying.
Wear loose fitting underwear, which is either all white cotton or at least have a white cotton crotch. Dyes in colored underwear can be annoying and tight underwear can lead to accumulation of bacteria-breeding moisture.
Avoid the use of the ' doughnut ' shaped cushions. They can feel good, because you do not sit directly on hemorrhoids. However, they also cause an accumulation of pressure surrounding the rektal area and it is not good.
Take the OTC (over-the-counter) pain relievers (Alive, Tylenol, Motrin) and use OTC ointments and creams to relieve symptoms.
Soak in a tub of manure hot water in the bathtub several times during the day in 15-20 minutes at a time. This is called a Sitz bath. (There are also commercially available pans, sit on the rim of toilet and can be filled with hot water. You can get them with drug store).
Alternative heating compresses and ice packs in hemorrhoidal region in 10-15 minutes several times per day. If you could lie on your stomach on an occasional basis, do you want to allow inflammation to the natural disaster.
Try to get from your feet at least several times during the day. If you already have long times during your day, get up, to move or stretch or at least sit in a different chair when you can.
Soak cotton pads with Witch Hazel (OTC medication shop) and apply directly for hemorrhoids that reduce the swelling.
