Yes, dandelion has the functions of relieving swelling and stagnation, diuresis and stranguria, and relieving anal swelling and pain. However, the efficacy of soaking in water is weak, and it is suitable for decocting and fumigation with other Chinese medicines such as Houttuynia cordata, and taking a bath for 20 minutes every day, which is also the characteristic of Chinese medicines.

Besides sitz bath, patients with anal fistula should pay special attention to the nursing of anus. Specifically, they should suspend the air, wash with water after defecation, and fumigate the sitz bath for enough time. Anal nursing is the basis of anorectal rehabilitation. If this is not done well, medication and surgery are meaningless. However, it is not easy to do anal care well, and an anorectal rehabilitation package is needed. There is a hand-held laundry inside to help wash with water after each toilet; Painless breathable pad helps to suspend anus and promote wound healing; The anal hydrotherapy device is placed on the toilet to help the sitting position complete fumigation and sitz bath, ensuring time. Special reminder, hospitals of general size have anorectal rehabilitation packages, but the price is at least twice as expensive as Taobao. I suggest you make preparations in advance. I wish you a speedy recovery and ask questions later.
