Postoperative treatment of hemorrhoids and sphincter hypertonia

Hemorrhoids and sphincter hypertonia, surgical intervention case

While the causes of deformation of the vascular bundles of the anal canal are still poorly understood, the consequences are better understood. Exaggeration of these deformations leads to hemorrhoidal pathology. The first most common anus disorder, this disease can cause itching, pain, soiling, hemorrhage, and even acute thrombosis attacks. Diagnosis then depends on the size and location of the hemorrhoids.

Surgery is only recommended when all local treatments have failed (ointments, injections, ligatures, cryotherapy, etc.) or when the hemorrhoids form a protrusion outside the anal canal.

Sphincter hypertonia is a condition that refers to the permanent tension of muscles during voluntary relaxation. This tension frequently occurs during bowel movements. Proctologists always favor local treatments; however, sphincter hypertonia is a risk factor for anal fissures due to the strain the patient puts on the muscles.

Local and post-operative care

Although different, these two diseases, which affect the transit of feces and cause discomfort to the patient, must be diagnosed and treated as early as possible. The Dilatan Plus anal dilator is one of the most effective treatments. It relieves hemorrhoidal pain and helps treat sphincter hypertonia thanks to its cryotherapy properties.

Similarly, the Dilatan Plus anal dilator is used in the post-operative treatment of hemorrhoids or sphincter hypertonia. This dual use is based on its cryothermal properties, which allow for alternating warm or cold contact depending on the treatment recommended. It is a remedy that relieves pain, but also a medical device that reduces the chances of developing anal stenosis.

Use of anal dilator in postoperative conditions

The Dilatan Plus dilator has been designed to allow the patient to easily and independently carry out post-operative treatment of hemorrhoids or sphincter hypertonia . Equipped with a tip that makes it easy to grip, the anal dilator slides inside the sphincter and provides immediate relief. The smooth plastic casing contains the cold or hot cryothermic gel. This safe and hygienic device is available from pharmacies upon presentation of a medical prescription. The Dilatan Plus is sold in 4 different sizes.
