A piquant problem
A huge number of people on the planet suffer from various diseases of the rectum, the most common of which is hemorrhoids. According to statistics, it is in 10% of the total adult population, and occurs at any age and equally in both sexes. If you have symptoms of hemorrhoids: unbearable itching, the inability to sit on a solid surface, pain and bleeding during defecation, and, finally, huge falling nodes, then you are faced with a real problem. So what to do? After all, one diet can not be done here!
It’s time to act
Treatment of acute hemorrhoids often takes 2-3 weeks, and mainly one local drug is used. Therefore, it is very important to make the right choice.
Two drugs are leading in the modern pharmacological market – Relif and Proctosan. Both are produced in dosage forms – rectal candles and ointments. Relief is valued primarily for its natural basis and high security. This brand produces three types of drug: Relief, Relief Advance and Relief Ultra, each of which qualitatively eliminates one or another leading symptom. However, the whole series has one active substance – the oil of the shark liver. It is this hood that is the strongest natural immunomodulator, that is, in a natural way, increases immunity, and also contains vitamin A, which is known as an effective antioxidant. Even the composition of this extract includes a squale and a squad that has an antifungal and antibacterial effect. This property is especially important in the presence of anal cracks, eccentric, since it prevents the accession of a secondary infection. Shark liver oil has found extensive use in oncology. This is important to take into account, since the possibility of rebirth of cells of the constantly injured mucous membrane of the rectum into a malignant tumor is not excluded. Another active component is phenylefrin. It helps narrow the vessels of hemorrhoids, as a result of which pressure reduces in them and blood flow is restored. Additional components of the drug Relief quickly relieve pain, burning and itching.
The competing proctosan, of course, is also actively fighting the manifestations of hemorrhoids. But it has a synthetic basis, which follows the larger number of side effects. For example, if the main undesirable manifestations of the relic are rare allergic reactions due to individual intolerance, then proctose is the likelihood of their occurrence, as well as a variety of manifestations, much higher.
So what to choose?
Modern medicine is evidence -based, which allows you to experimentally confirm the quality of the drug. Relief and Proctosan have a high level of evidence base, but the latter was not tested in a group of young patients, so it is not assigned up to 18 years. Proctosan is not used in the presence of persistent arterial hypertension. Given its presence in most patients, as well as all of the above, we can conclude about the good advantage of the drug Relief.
