Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am experiencing pain and itching in the anus along with external hemorrhoids. Additionally, I find it challenging to fully pass stool, feeling as if it is stuck inside. Seeking advice on how to manage these symptoms and alleviate discomfort. Kindly help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

If you are dealing with hemorrhoids, here is a recommended course of action:

  1. Syrup Lactihep(Lactitol): Take 20 ml at night.

  2. Free Lac Powder: Consume two teaspoons twice a day in a glass of water.

  3. Tablet OSIL: Take twice daily for 10 days.

  4. Betadine Solution (Sitz Bath): Add a small amount to lukewarm water in a tub and sit for 15 minutes twice a day.

  5. For Bleeding: Take tablet Tranexa 500 mg (tranexamic acid) twice daily for three days.

  6. For Gastric Issues: Take a tablet of Pantin 40 mg once daily, half an hour before breakfast.

  7. For Itching: Tablet Levocetirizine daily at night.

  8. To Relieve Strain: Avoid straining while passing stool, and limit time spent in the washroom.

  9. For Pain: Tablet Lanol-ER (Paracetamol) twice a day for five days.

Additionally:

  1. Dietary Changes: Avoid non-vegetarian for three to four months.

  2. Hydration: Consume up to four liters of oral fluids daily.

  3. High Fiber Diet: Incorporate a high-fiber diet to support digestive health.

I hope this information will help you.

Thank you.
