The chronic hemorrhoids behave cyclically, i.e. the condition improves and deteriorates in cycles. However left without a serious treatment this illness gradually progresses and can suddenly take the acute form which could lead to thrombosis.

The acute form of disease is characterized by a strong splitting pain and a sensation of having an alien object in rectum. These sensations are very acute during bowel movement, walking and sitting.

One of the main reasons for hemorrhoid problems is inadequate diet, with too few fibers, which leads to hard bowel movements and frequent constipations, which create constant straining during bowel movement.

Inactive way of life, sedentary work, adiposity, pregnancy and childbirth, unnecessary body weight, too many hot baths, smoking and constant stresses also provoke development of hemorrhoids.

It’s really important that you see a doctor at the first appearance of hemorrhoids.

It is possible to considerably accelerate the healing process using a simple technique used in Su Jok therapy.

Treatment

First find most painful points on areas corresponding to the rectum according to figure 1.

Now find a little stick with a not too sharp edge (a toothpick with a broken sharp edge, a ball pen without ink and will do). You’re going to use this stick to massage those painful points. Press these points with a moderate effort and begin a slow rotation of the stick in two directions. Carry out this massage for several minutes. See figure 2.

Next paint over these areas with dark blue color. For this purpose it is possible to use an ordinary felt-tip pen.
Finally apply buckwheat seeds to these areas. This is the same technique as explained in “How To Get Rid Of Neck Pain” step 3.

If you have a constipation refer to How to Treat Constipation.

Advice on diet

As mentioned in the introduction, your diet is really important if you have hemorrhoids or you want to avoid those.

Your daily diet should include sufficient amount of liquids (between 2 to 3 liters) and products possessing salutary action on intestinal peristalsis – black and bran bread, crude vegetables and fruit, prunes, cereal and buckwheat groats.

It’d be beneficial to avoid entirely consuming whole milk and products from refined white flour. Sour-milk products on the other hand, like yogurts, are good for your diet.

The First Case

A 80 year-old women came to me for the treatment of her knee. She came leaning on the stick. Her right knee was swollen and painful. Her right leg was slightly bent. She had been suffering from the knee pain for a long period of time. Recently she has visited an orthopedist and received an injection in her knee, but it only helped for a short time. The pain returned a few days later. Apart from this she felt quite well.

Diagnosis

According to TCM we can deduce that the pain in her knee is due to invasion of Cold and Dampness in her body.

According to Su Jok theory this is the case of excessive Coldness and Humidity and Dryness energy in her knee.

A short introduction to the Su-Jok’s Six-Energy theory.

1. The Wind energy – initiates all physiological processes, provides their growth and change.
2. The Heat energy – makes active vital functions of an organism, raises metabolism.
3. The Hotness energy – harmonizes all functions and systems, provides maturation of organism.
4. The Humidity energy – creates the optimum vital habitat and the beginning of recession of all physiological functions. Also it controlls the liquid of the body.
5. The Dryness energy – slows down metabolism, controls recession of all physiological functions and provides their protection function.
6. The Coldness energy – controls the final stages of all physiological processes.

The age of my patient pointed to the Coldness energy.
The pain of the knee and her leg bending pointed to the Coldness and Dryness energy and little swelling of her knee to Humidity energy.

Treatment

The treatment was directed for reducing the Coldness energy in the knee and tonification the Heat energy.

Beside that, I put needles in the painful points on the basic corresponding system according to Su Jok therapy.

I continued the treatments for several months.

Now she walks without her walking stick and feels much better.

The Second Case

A man of 45 year suddenly felt pain in the right knee while doing sports. He decided to increase the intensity of his trainings hoping the pain will go away. But instead of getting better, his knee got worse. When he came to see me his knee was quite swollen and painful.

Diagnosis

This is a local stagnation of Qi and Blood from overuse of the joint.

Treatment

I performed the acupuncture according to TCM.

After seven treatments the pain and the knee swelling disappeared.

(Abdominal pain indicates pain in any part of the abdomen below or just around the umbilicus).

She was very upset. The pain was on the left down side of lower abdominal and was not related to the menstrual cycle. The pain was aggravated with her bowel movements and when she moved. She visited her family doctor, made all tests and no pathology was detected. Also she had problems in her family and was depressed.

Diagnosis

At first I performed a computer test using the TestBalance device, according to Su Jok theory. The results are summed up in the following diagram.

According to Su-Jok therapy the human body has six kinds of energy (six ki), that cooperate with each other. In healthy body they have been balanced (see Su-Jok Therapy helps Mother Recover from Depression after her Son’s Death). In our case we can see an excess of AH – Coldness (BL), AH – Wind (GB), AH – Dryness (LI) energy in the body (Yang energy). The pain my patient suffered from is expressed in the excess of Coldness and Dryness energy in her body. The excess of Wind energy is expressed in the pain connected to the movement and the stress. At the same time deficiency UM -Dryness (LU) and UM – Wind (LV) energy explains chronic depression among women.

Treatment

The Su-Jok treatment was directed to sedation AH – Coldness and AH – Wind energy and tonification of AH – Humidity energy. This treatment I performed on byol-chakras.

In addition I did acupuncture to sedate the Dryness energy in the Bladder meridian in the location corresponding to the pain.

After three treatments her abdominal pain disappeared.

Earlier I treated her for back problems. Also she was inclined to depression in connection with a problem in her family.

Diagnosis

I diagnosed my patient using the TestBalance device. The results summer up in the following diagram:

Based on these results it became obvious that patient’s constitution was A-Cold. In this constitution energy of Wind (meridian of the Gall Bladder – GB), energy of Cold (meridian the Bladder – BL) and energy of Dryness (meridian of the Large Intestine – LI) are in an excess and energies of Heat (meridian of the Heart – HR), Hotness (meridian of Triple Warmer – TH) and of the Humidity (meridian of the Stomach – ST ) are in deficiency. Such circumstances could result in pain and localization of this pain can be according to arrangement of the meridian of Gall Bladder over the eye.

Treatment

I massaged the painful points according to the basic correspondence system and mini-systems of Su-Jok Therapy and subsequently did acupuncture on the same points.

In parallel I put two needless in a point corresponding to the gall bladder in the basic Su Jok correspondence system.

In ten minutes the pain disappeared and so far didn’t come back.
