What medicine is good for treating prolapse?
First, internal medicine for symptomatic treatment
Prepare 10 grams of Fructus Aurantii Immaturus, 8 grams of Rhizoma Chuanxiong, and 15 grams of Astragalus membranaceus. Boil and drink them twice a day to nourish qi and stabilize the prolapse. If you persist in taking this medicine, you will soon notice a significant improvement in the condition of your prolapse.
Second, external application of prolapse ointment
Materials needed include pomegranate peel, Chinese sumac fruit, and gallnut, which should be ground into powder and mixed in equal proportions. Then, mix the powder with sesame oil to make a 50% concentrated ointment. Apply the ointment to the anus before going to bed every night, gently push the prolapsed rectum back in with your hand, and then fix it with sterilized gauze. The ointment is most effective when used at night, but if the condition is severe, it can also be applied during the day. During the treatment period, avoid heavy physical labor.
Third, fumigation and washing with prolapse powder
Take 50 grams each of Chinese sumac fruit, gallnut, root bark of Chinese toon, pomegranate peel, and alum, and decoct them in water. Sit on a basin of warm decoction, fumigate the anus first, and then wash it for 20-30 minutes each time, three times a day.
Experts emphasize that patients with anal fissures should not use the above two external remedies and should stop using them once the prolapse is restored.
