The harm of postpartum hemorrhoids and the precautions for postpartum hemorrhoids

Many people should know that female friends are prone to hemorrhoids after giving birth. Hemorrhoids are a disease that troubles many people. Severe hemorrhoids can affect a person's daily life and endanger physical health. Postpartum hemorrhoids cannot be easily ignored.

1. Harm to women themselves

For the mother herself, in addition to having to endure the pain and constipation caused by hemorrhoids, the greater harm is that if it is not treated for a long time, the bacteria will destroy the immune system through the blood and cause infections in the genitals, breasts, pelvic cavity and appendages. In addition, it also greatly increases the risk of rectal cancer, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

2. Harm to the baby

What is more worrying for new mothers is that the hemorrhoid lesions are very susceptible to invasion by anal bacteria, leading to infection, which in turn produces a harmful substance called "SP hemorrhoid poison", which threatens the woman's own immune system on the one hand, and also affects the health of the baby on the other. For postpartum women, "SP hemorrhoid poison" can infect the mammary glands, contaminate the milk source, and directly affect the quality of breast milk. In addition, it can enter the baby's body through breast milk, causing the newborn baby's immunity to decline, and increasing the risk of colds, fevers, palpitations and various epidemic diseases in babies.

Hemorrhoids are a common and highly prevalent anorectal disease. This disease does not have a specific gender or age group. Postpartum hemorrhoids refer to hemorrhoids caused by pregnancy and childbirth. Part of the reason why new mothers suffer from hemorrhoids after childbirth is that the enlarged uterus during pregnancy affects the blood return. The uterus in recovery after childbirth will still cause compression to the internal organs. At the same time, hormonal changes in mothers' bodies also increase the chance of hemorrhoids; and part of the reason is related to postpartum living habits, such as eating too heavy a diet, constipation leading to too much force in defecation, etc., which can induce the occurrence of hemorrhoids. Of course, the special structure of the rectum itself is also a major internal inducement.
