HERBAL REMEDIES FOR RECTAL ABSCESS/FISSURES

Rectal abscess is associated with burning, stinging, and possible bleeding on the rectum. At times, painful and red swelling occurs at or near the anal opening. Hemorrhoids are enlarged veins in the anus and rectum area. Fissures are ulcers or cracks in the skin which just turn out to crop up in the same spot. The precincts where skin meets the mucous lining can have little tears. This comes up occasionally at the corners of the mouth. Fissures on the rectum are quite similar. A regular cause is the excreting of a big, hard stool.

Preventive Tips

• Avoid constipation. Make sure your diets contain sufficient fibers and drink enough water in a day.  Drink 6-8 glasses of water and eat fruits.
• Wipe yourself gently. Do not scratch the spot.
• Avoid diarrhea.
• Sit on something soft

Herbal remedies

1. Apply little amount of corn starch on the area after each bath, to keep it dries. Never apply talcum powder for this or anything else. It can cause cancer. Talcum powder is rock dust.

2. A poultice of Echinacea may be used directly on the abscess, to disinfect and help bring it to a keen shape, hence it can be opened.
