Hemorrhoids is a common proctological disease that occurs in almost every 3 people over the age of 40 years. The disease is not so dangerous in the early stages of development, so many patients prefer to cope with the symptoms of the lesion on their own, without visiting a treating specialist. But it is important to remember that without medical assistance, the disease begins to progress over time. Often people go to the doctor when hemorrhoids have already developed to stage 3. Treatment of stage 3 hemorrhoids without surgery is a rather difficult procedure, as a rule, the disease is treated through surgical intervention.
Main causes of occurrence
Each disease has several stages of flow, each with its own specific symptoms. Usually, hemorrhoids are detected at the first stage of development, when even home treatment helps to cope with the symptoms of the lesion and improve the person's condition.
But due to the fact that patients usually do not pay attention to the symptoms of hemorrhoids and delay going to the doctor, the diseaseare diagnosed already at the 3rd stage of development.
The main causes that lead to the appearance of the disease include:
- drinking a lot of alcohol;
- too frequent sports, overexertion of the body;
- bearing a child, the presence of pathological diseases;
- diet problems;
- sedentary lifestyle.
Most affected by the disease are people who often have long-term constipation. With strong stress at the time of defecation, a person can form numerous cracks on the anus, which as a result change to the state of hemorrhoids.
At the initial stage of the development of the disease, it is quite easy to cure, for this you just need to change your lifestyle and get rid of bad habits. But many people do not even do this, which is why hemorrhoids begin to progress and move into dangerous stages. Methods for the treatment of stage 3 hemorrhoids can no longer be non-surgical, which most often require complex therapy. At the first and second stages of development, the disease is treated without surgery.
Symptoms of defeat
Symptoms of the disease are almost the same at all stages of its development. The main ones are bleeding wounds that appear from the anus at the time of defecation, as well as the formation of hemorrhoids.
At the same time, in the first two stages, the protruding hemorrhoids independently retract into the passage, but at the 3rd stage, the nodes already havedirect a person with their efforts. In addition, drop-down nodes at 3 stages of the development of the disease provoke the following symptoms:
- heavy bleeding;
- discomfort during bowel movements;
- burning and itching in the anus;
- prolapse of hemorrhoids during sports and even minimal stress.
Disease diagnosis
The disease begins to progress rapidly due to neurological disorders, as the patient is simply afraid to talk about his problem to the treating specialist. As a result of this, hemorrhoids begin to greatly increase in size and, due to their large mass, involuntarily come out. At the same time, pain sensations only begin to grow, heavy bleeding occurs, which brings discomfort to the patient.
It is important to remember that at any stage of development of hemorrhoids, it is very dangerous to treat a lesion on your own for human he alth. If proper and timely assistance is not provided, the disease can lead to rectal cancer.
Determining the presence of hemorrhoids in a patient is quite simple. A professional proctologist will be able to make an accurate diagnosis with a simple palpation, he will identify the stage of the disease and its danger to humans. The patient should not be silent about his illness and think that it will pass on its own, as this is very dangerous not only for his he alth, but also for life.
Danger of the third stage
Any stage of the disease needs immediate help for a person. Delays in treatment are dangerous because in the end they canlead the patient to hospitalization in a hospital for a long time. In the absence of proper treatment, stage 3 hemorrhoids can go into the fourth, which is most often detected in an oncological form.
Already at the 3rd stage of development, the disease is manifested by strong and sharp pains in the patient. This can be explained by the fact that the leg of the node is arbitrarily infringed.
Possible problems
At stage 3, hemorrhoids can provoke the following he alth problems:
- hemorrhoidal thrombosis;
- paraproctitis is a bacteriological infection that spreads to the tissues of the rectum;
- bleeding profusely;
- rectal cancer.
The prognosis at this stage is ambiguous, the patient immediately begins to understand that he wasted time in vain, since it would have been much easier to cure the disease earlier.
At the first and second stages of the development of the disease, the patient should simply follow simple rules of hygiene, try to eat right, use medicines, follow preventive measures, using recipes from traditional medicine, which will help stop the development of the disease. But hemorrhoids at stage 3 cannot be cured by the indicated methods.
