Is it good to do pelvic floor exercises after hemorrhoid surgery?

Hemorrhoids not only occur in men, but also in women. However, they are more common in men, so the treatment methods are different. The most concerning question for hemorrhoid patients is whether it is good to do levator ani exercises after hemorrhoid surgery. According to medical experts, it is very good to do levator ani exercises after hemorrhoid surgery, and it can also promote the patient's health. Let's learn about it together.

The levator anus exercise can improve local blood circulation, improve the function of the anal sphincter, prevent anal relaxation, and is effective in preventing and treating hemorrhoids and prolapse. Method (can be done while lying or standing): When inhaling, pull the anus inward and tighten the anus, and relax when exhaling. Each time the anus is relaxed, tighten 30 times, once in the morning and evening. If you can take the chest-knee position (kneeling on both knees, chest against the bed, and raising the buttocks) to do the levator anus exercise, the effect will be better. The effect of the hip flexion anal exercise is better. The method is: lie on your back on the bed, cross your legs, lift and flex your hips (make the thighs as close to the abdomen as possible), and do it 20-30 times in a row. Exhale when flexing the hips and relax the anus, once in the morning and evening every day.

The anus lifting exercise can be performed while sitting, lying or standing. The method is as follows: concentrate your mind, tighten your abdomen, exhale slowly, and at the same time consciously lift your anus upward. When the air in the lungs is exhaled as much as possible, hold your breath and keep the anus lifted for 2 to 3 seconds, then relax your whole body and let the air naturally enter the lungs. Rest for 2 to 3 seconds, and repeat the above movements. Similarly, lift your anus while inhaling as much as possible, then relax your whole body and let the air in the lungs exhale naturally. Do this 1 to 2 times a day, 30 times or 5 minutes each time.

Sit, lie supine or stand with legs apart; sit on the edge of a stool, not fully; when lying supine, slightly raise the buttocks off the bed. Relax your whole body and focus on the perineum and anus. Contract the muscles of the abdomen, buttocks and pelvic floor, and tighten and loosen the anus with breathing. Contract and lift the anus when inhaling, and relax when exhaling. Do this 20 to 30 times a day after defecation, in the morning or before going to bed at night. Do it for 30 consecutive days, then rest for 7 days before continuing. It can enhance or promote the recovery of the function of the levator ani and anal sphincter, promote blood circulation around the anus, and prevent congestion. One month after hemorrhoid surgery, you can stop taking potassium permanganate sitz baths and rinse with warm water after defecation.

Through the above understanding, it is not difficult to find that the answer to the question of whether it is good to do levator ani exercises after hemorrhoid surgery is yes. Lift ani exercises are also one of the exercises. Especially during our illness, we should pay more attention to exercise. Only in this way can we constantly enhance our resistance and immunity, get out of the pain brought by the disease as soon as possible, get out of the haze of life, and usher in a better tomorrow.
