Lymph and Floor Physio

Passionate in treating cording and preventing lymphoedema in breast cancer patients and retraining bowel routine in patients with irritable bowel symptoms.

Recurrent Haemorrhoids

Recurrent haemorrhoids happen when people need to strain when emptying their bowels. Haemorrhoids are swollen veins, which can be internal and formed inside the lower rectum; they are usually painless and bleed during straining. Some haemorrhoids can be external and form outside or around the anus; they can be painful and irritated when a bowel motion passes. A gut focused bowel physiotherapist helps to train patients using the correct muscle to evacuate their bowels so they will not bear down excessively and create excessive pressure in the rectum and anus, causing the veins to swell and bleed when your bowels open. It is usually to consider to learn the correct defaecation technique prior to have any surgery for your haemorrhoids to avoid it’s recurrence.
