In the absence of complications of hemorrhoids (bleeding, infringement of hemorrhoids, etc.), physiotherapy at home involves the use of sufficiently effective methods of laser and magnetotherapy, as well as methods of information-wave action.
It is possible to carry out the procedures of the listed methods of physiotherapy at home by the patient independently, according to the intended use and under the dynamic control of the attending physician.
With all these methods of physiotherapy, the position of the patient during the procedure is lying on the bed (couch, sofa) on the back with legs bent at the knees and legs diluted in the sides, and the field of influence is on the anus area. Methods of contact, stable.
When laser therapy is optimal use of devices with matrix radiators near the infrared part of the optical spectrum (wavelength 0.8 - 0.9 microns). APM NLI 5 - 10 mW / cm2. With the possibility of frequency modulation of LI, the first 3 to 5 procedures are performed at a frequency of 80 Hz, all subsequent ones at a frequency of 10 Hz. Time of action on the field up to 5 min. The course of treatment 5 - 10 daily procedures once a day in the morning.
It is advisable to carry out magnetotherapy with the help of the Polyus-2D apparatus. Time of action on the field is up to 20 min. The course of treatment up to 10 procedures daily 1 time per day in the morning.
Information-wave action is carried out with the help of the Azor-IK apparatus. The first 3 - 5 procedures are conducted at a frequency of 80 Hz, all subsequent - at a frequency of 10 Hz.
Time of action on the field - up to 20 min. The course of treatment up to 10 procedures daily 1 time per day in the morning.
It is possible to consistently perform procedures in one day at home with hemorrhoids (the interval between procedures is 2 to 4 hours):
- laser (magnetolaser) therapy + magnetotherapy.
