Venous complications and haemorrhoids in the puerperium - what does this mean
Venous complications and haemorrhoids in the puerperium occur due to increased pressure in the pelvic veins caused by the increased weight of the uterus and the pressure of the baby's head during delivery. this can cause the veins to become swollen and varicose, leading to haemorrhoids and other venous complications.
What happens during the disease - venous complications and haemorrhoids in the puerperium
The pathogenesis of venous complications and haemorrhoids in the puerperium is multifactorial. it is caused by a combination of hormonal changes during pregnancy leading to increased vascularity, increased intra-abdominal pressure due to the expanding uterus, and increased venous pressure due to prolonged standing and straining during labor. these factors lead to an increased risk of venous pooling in the pelvic area, leading to venous congestion and engorgement of the veins in the rectal area, resulting in haemorrhoids.
