Methods A total of 180 patients with hemorrhoidectomy were selected as the research object and participated in the research in Jiangsu Province Hospital of TCM and Jiangsu Hospital of integrated TCM and western medicine. According to random number table, they were assigned to the bath group, the sits bath group and the flushing group, with 60 cases in each group and 30 cases in each research center. The pain after surgery, around anus edema and intertion status of wounds in three groups were compared. Results The results showed that the scores of postoperative pain were gradually decreased. The score of postoperative pain at 7th day was (2.32±0.82) points in the flushing group; (2.65±0.04) points in the bath group, and (3.05±0.02) points in the sitz bath group (P 0.05). No significant difference in around anus edema and intertion status of wounds among three groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Chinese medicine flushing therapy offers a better pain relief than sitz bath and bath method. There are no significant differences in shorting the time of wound healing and reducing the around anus edema.
