Hemorrhoid -- A Chinese Herbal Prescription (36)

Hemorrhoid is a common problem even though people feel embarrassed discussing it. Despite being localized, hemorrhoid is not much different from other skin problems as seen in Chinese medicine. Therefore a similar healing approach applies. Please see my video on Skin Rash.

Hemorrhoid usually starts out as a minor scratch on the skin near the anus. However, the small wound fails to heal but gets worse due to various reasons. When it reaches a certain stage, it becomes a long-term nuisance with frequent flare-ups, bleedings and pains. In this video, we try to understand why the scratch fails to heal. Then we'll learn how to quicken the healing process.

What cause the initial scratch in the first place?
• Difficult bowel movements, hard stools scratching the skin.
• Toilet paper not soft enough.
• Unintentional scratch during washing or cleansing.
• Careless sexual activities.

Why does the scratch fail to heal?
• Poor hygiene. Gentle washing is required at least once a day.
• Exposed to polluted or dirty water.
• Too much time sitting especially on bicycle or heated seats.
• Constipation resulting in hard stools, further scratching the hemorrhoid.
• Too much spicy or Hot food. See my video "Hot and Cold I & II".
• Continued careless sexual activities.
