- Be careful if you are allergic to local anesthetics (local anesthetics such as articaine, bupivacaine, lidocaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine, ropivacaine)!
- There may be medicines that interact with. You should therefore generally tell your doctor or pharmacist before starting treatment with a new medicine that you are already using. This also applies to medicines that you buy yourself, only use occasionally or that were used some time ago.

Posterisan acute ointment

The quick helper for pain and severe itching on the bottom

• Relieves itching and pain in anal fissures or hemorrhoidal problems
Posterisan acute relieves painful and itchy symptoms in the anal area.

• Stops excruciating itching and numbs the sensation of pain
Posterisan acute rectal ointment with lidocaine numbs the sensation of pain and quickly relieves severe itching on the bottom.

• Ointment for use on the skin and in the anal canal
Posterisan acute rectal ointment is applied superficially to the anus or gently inserted into the anal canal using the included applicator.

• With the local anesthetic lidocaine
Lidocaine is a proven, topical anesthetic that relieves anal discomfort associated with hemorrhoids.

• For the 3-day acute treatment of rectal complaints
If the symptoms do not improve within 3 days of therapy, a doctor should be consulted.

Posterisan acute is a non-prescription lidocaine ointment for the acute treatment of anal complaints such as enlarged hemorrhoids, anal fissures or itching at the anus during the day and at night.

Posterisan acute for the treatment of severe itching of the anus

Posterisan acute is a non-prescription medicine for acute anal complaints. The over-the-counter rectal ointment contains the active ingredient lidocaine, a locally effective anesthetic. The medicine is suitable for treating itchy and painful symptoms associated with anal fissures or hemorrhoidal problems.

The quick helper for acute symptoms of hemorrhoidal disease

• Quickly helps with pain and severe itching
• The No. 1 ointment in pharmacies for hemorrhoids^*
• Vegan and mineral oil-free

If there is severe itching and pain in the anus, an ointment with lidocaine is the treatment of choice. The active ingredient lidocaine is proven, reliable and works quickly. Posterisan acute is also suitable for numbing the sensation of pain before a proctological examination.

How does lidocaine ointment help against hemorrhoids and anal fissures?
The active ingredient lidocaine is a local anesthetic that prevents nerves from transmitting stimuli. This alleviates unpleasant symptoms such as itching in hemorrhoidal problems or the intense sensation of pain in an acute anal fissure. To treat hemorrhoids or anal fissures, lidocaine ointment is applied to the anus and anal canal.

The consistency of the rectal ointment also plays a role
Another criterion for good applicability and treatment is the consistency of the rectal ointment. The cream must last long enough to release its active ingredient. At the same time, it must not be too tight, otherwise it cannot be distributed in the anal canal. Posterisan hemorrhoid ointments are specially made for treatment in the sensitive anal region and have the right consistency for successful therapy.

If the anus itches
Approximately 2 out of 3 adults are affected by hemorrhoidal problems. They occur when the hemorrhoids enlarge. The symptoms of enlarged hemorrhoids usually develop slowly. Occasionally you may experience itching and a slight burning sensation in the anal area, or there may be bright red blood on the toilet paper.

Application recommendation
How is Posterisan acute rectal ointment used?
The ointment is suitable for the acute treatment of severe itching and pain on the bottom and should not be used for longer than 3 days without consulting a doctor.
The ointment is applied thinly to the anal region in the morning and evening, if possible before and after defecation, and spread carefully with your finger.

Easy to use with applicator
For the treatment of symptoms in the anus, the Posterisan acute ointment comes with an applicator with side openings. By inserting it into the anal canal, the hemorrhoid ointment works locally at the site of the problem, resulting in a noticeable improvement in the unpleasant symptoms.

It is important to thoroughly clean the applicator and tube tip after each use, preferably by unscrewing and rinsing with warm water.

Causes, areas of application and target groups

Hemorrhoidal disease is not uncommon
Approximately two out of three people over 30 suffer from hemorrhoidal problems at least once in their lives.

Hemorrhoids are important for the fine closure of the anus and are present in every person from birth. However, if their size increases over time, they can cause unpleasant symptoms, which is why they should be treated as early as possible. New cases most often occur between the ages of 45 and 65. The first typical signs of hemorrhoids are bright red blood on the toilet paper or in your underwear.

Medical science only speaks of hemorrhoidal disease when the vascular cushions pathologically enlarge and the nodular protrusions lead to typical symptoms such as itching, burning, pain or even oozing.

Typical symptoms of hemorrhoidal problems
For most patients, hemorrhoids initially cause little discomfort. You often only notice them when traces of bright red blood can be seen on the toilet paper or on the stool. Other signs may include:
• Burning, oozing, itching
• the feeling that the intestine is not completely emptied at the end of the bowel movement (feeling of pressure)

The skin around the anus is very sensitive. Irritation, injury or inflammation can easily occur.

If you have frequent or chronic complaints in the anal region, you should definitely consult your family doctor.

What are the causes of hemorrhoid problems?
The causes of hemorrhoidal problems are diverse and often have to do with our modern lifestyle:
• Unbalanced, low-fiber diet
• Too little fluid intake
• Sitting for hours
• Too little movement
• Straining during bowel movements

Lack of exercise itself does not cause hemorrhoid problems. But sitting too much makes the intestines sluggish. Those who are sensitive are prone to constipation under these conditions. This, in turn, leads to straining when going to the toilet, which irritates the hemorrhoidal pads, which can lead to hemorrhoidal problems.

A congenital or acquired weakness of the connective tissue, but also pregnancy or strength training can contribute to the development of hemorrhoidal disease.

What is an anal fissure?
An anal fissure is a painful tear in the anal canal. The anal fissure occurs when the anal skin is damaged due to excessive stretching, e.g. B. tears through hard stool. With an anal fissure, severe pain can occur during and after defecation, sometimes lasting for hours.

Hemorrhoid problems cannot be ignored
Hemorrhoids are a taboo topic for many: but especially in the early stages, they can be treated with over-the-counter hemorrhoid ointments or hemorrhoid suppositories. If the causative factors are not counteracted, they will grow larger over time. From a medical point of view, there are 4 stages:

1st degree hemorrhoids
The hemorrhoids cannot be seen or felt externally. There are hardly any symptoms, occasionally blood on the toilet paper.

2Nd degree hemorrhoids
The hemorrhoids can usually be felt and felt externally after a bowel movement. But they spontaneously withdraw again. The symptoms are oozing, burning, itching, and easy bleeding.

3Rd degree hemorrhoids
The hemorrhoids do not retract spontaneously but must be actively pushed into the anus. The symptoms are the same as those of grade 2, but continue to increase as the hemorrhoids have prolapsed outwards for a longer period of time.

4Th degree hemorrhoids
The hemorrhoids are permanently located in front of the anus. The symptoms worsen and incontinence and painful inflammation may occur. If the hemorrhoidal problems are already very advanced (grade III/IV), a reduction procedure is usually necessary.

Those affected should therefore counteract the enlargement of the hemorrhoids at an early stage by adjusting their diet and lifestyle habits. The unpleasant symptoms should be treated acutely with lidocaine with a quick-helping ointment such as Posterisan.

Tips
The strong combination: Posterisan acute ointment during the day and FAKTU mild hemorrhoid suppositories at night
In case of itching, burning and pain, the combined use of Posterisan acute ointment and FAKTU lind hemorrhoid suppositories is recommended. During the day, Posterisan helps quickly and effectively with symptoms such as pain and very severe itching. The ointment can be used after showering or going to the toilet if necessary.

FAKTU lind hemorrhoid suppositories are ideal for the night-time treatment of hemorrhoid problems. While you sleep, the suppository stays in place and continuously releases the active ingredient for hours. With the combination of hemorrhoid ointment and hemorrhoidal suppositories, enlarged hemorrhoids are treated around the clock and symptoms usually disappear quickly.

Anal hygiene for hemorrhoid problems
Thorough, gentle anal hygiene is the be-all and end-all, especially for sensitive skin. FAKTU Clean care wipes were developed for gentle and caring cleaning of the anal region. The wet cleaning wipes are fragrance- and alcohol-free and contain Ruscus root extract. For best results, you should acutely pat the anal area dry before using a hemorrhoid ointment such as Posterisan.

To support and prevent inflammation, cotton panties should be worn and anal pads should be used if there is excessive oozing or sweating.

Using an anal dilator
The use of an anal dilator is useful to treat chronic spasm of the sphincter that can result from an anal fissure or diarrhea. A cramped sphincter reduces blood flow to the anal canal, which interferes with wound healing. Using the anal dilator stretches and relaxes the sphincter. With the help of the anal stretcher, the sphincter can also be trained, which is useful if the hemorrhoids protrude more easily from the anus due to the weakening of the pelvic floor and connective tissue.

You can contribute to successful treatment yourself
A lifestyle with a low-fiber diet and little exercise can promote the development of hemorrhoids. However, in most cases it is not the sole cause. However, changing your unhealthy lifestyle habits is the first step to preventing and improving your hemorrhoid disease.
It is not necessary to force a bowel movement every day. Strong pressing and especially the so-called re-pressing when the stool is too hard can worsen hemorrhoidal problems.

Prevent anal problems
Regular digestion is important. Many people suffer from constipation. Chronic constipation occurs when there are persistent problems with bowel movements or when there are fewer than three bowel movements per week. You can prevent hemorrhoids and anal fissures by ensuring soft stools. It is important to eat a diet rich in fiber, drink plenty of water and exercise regularly. Visits to the toilet should never be postponed or forced by straining. Anal discomfort can be treated with medications such as anti-itch and pain-relieving ointments.

The posterisan acute ointment helps quite well against acute complaints. Unfortunately, there is only this salt dube. The individual portions were better in the application.

Product is a pure anesthetic, which paralyzes the pain. Does not provide lasting relief.
