How to eliminate a two-centimeter external hemorrhoid?
The external hemorrhoid is about two centimeters in size, which indicates that it's relatively large. This condition can cause feelings of a foreign object in the anus, itching, and even moisture around the anal area, leading to anal eczema.
If one wishes to completely eliminate it, it is advisable to go to the hospital's proctology department as soon as possible to have a hemorrhoidectomy. Post-surgery, one should choose anal cleaning solutions or potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths, complemented by external applications of medicines such as Jing Huang Gao or hemorrhoid creams. At the same time, the patient's diet should consist of light and easily digestible food to prevent dry and hard stools, which will aid in the healing of the surgical site.
Additionally, patients should develop good bowel habits, maintain smooth bowel movements, and avoid sitting or squatting for long periods. Regularly performing anal lifting exercises can prevent the recurrence of external hemorrhoids. If patients prefer not to undergo surgery, conservative medical treatment can be used to reduce the size of the external hemorrhoids, but it cannot completely eliminate them.
