Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of anal support technology, specifically to an anal support for use after hemorrhoid surgery. Background Technology

[0002] Hemorrhoids are a common anorectal disease, and surgery is one of the important treatment methods. After surgery, the anal area is more vulnerable and requires special care.

[0003] Currently, postoperative care for hemorrhoids faces numerous challenges. On one hand, traditional care methods lack effective support and fixation for the anal area. During patient activity, the anal wound is easily affected by external forces such as friction and pressure, hindering wound healing and potentially leading to complications such as pain and bleeding. On the other hand, some existing assistive care devices lack comfort, fail to conform well to the human body's physiological structure, cause discomfort with prolonged use, and are difficult to adapt to the differences in body shape among patients, resulting in poor flexibility in use.

[0004] Therefore, developing an anal support that can effectively lift the anus, conform to the human body, and is comfortable and adjustable is of great significance for improving the nursing effect and comfort of patients after hemorrhoid surgery. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anal support for hemorrhoid surgery, in order to solve the problems of poor nursing effect, poor flexibility and comfort of traditional techniques.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A postoperative anal support for hemorrhoid surgery, comprising:

[0007] Anal pocket;

[0008] The four vertices of the anal pocket are respectively connected to the left front pocket strap, the right front pocket strap, the left rear pocket strap, and the right rear pocket strap;

[0009] The ends of the left front pocket and the right front pocket are connected to the left shoulder strap and the right shoulder strap respectively via D-ring buckles; the ends of the left back pocket and the right back pocket are connected to the left shoulder strap and the right shoulder strap respectively via D-ring buckles.

[0010] At least one of the anal pocket, the left shoulder strap, the right shoulder strap, the left front pocket strap, the right front pocket strap, the left rear pocket strap, and the right rear pocket strap is elastic;

[0011] A front connecting strap and a rear connecting strap are provided between the left shoulder strap and the right shoulder strap. The front connecting strap is horizontally connected to the front side of the left shoulder strap and the right shoulder strap, and the rear connecting strap is horizontally connected to the rear side of the left shoulder strap and the right shoulder strap.

[0012] As a preferred option for anal support after hemorrhoid surgery, at least one of the left front pocket, the right front pocket, the left rear pocket, and the right rear pocket has a surface sewn with Velcro for self-adhesion.

[0013] As a preferred option for anal support after hemorrhoid surgery, the surface of the anal support is lined with a flexible material, including memory foam or sponge.

[0014] As a preferred option for anal support after hemorrhoid surgery, the two sides of the anal support are shaped as concave hyperbolic curves.

[0015] As a preferred option for anal support after hemorrhoid surgery, it also includes a chest strap and a back strap, which are connected to the left shoulder strap and the right shoulder strap respectively via a buckle.

[0016] As a preferred option for anal support after hemorrhoid surgery, the anal support is made of flexible material, including cotton cloth, memory foam, or sponge.

[0017] As a preferred option for anal support after hemorrhoid surgery, both the left and right shoulder straps are elastic.

[0018] As a preferred option for anal support after hemorrhoid surgery, the D-ring connection between the end of the left front pocket and the end of the left shoulder strap is in the open state;

[0019] The D-ring buckle connection between the end of the right front pocket and the right shoulder strap is in the open state.

[0020] As a preferred option for anal support after hemorrhoid surgery, the D-ring connection between the end of the left rear pocket and the end of the left shoulder strap is in the open state;

[0021] The D-ring buckle connection between the end of the right rear pocket and the right shoulder strap is in the open state.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: First, through the connection structure between the anal pocket and each strap and shoulder strap, and through the support of the shoulder strap by the human shoulder, and the elastic deformation of the shoulder strap, the anal pocket, which supports the anus, can provide continuous and stable support to the anal area. This effectively reduces friction and pressure on the anal wound during patient activity, lowers the risk of secondary wound damage, creates favorable conditions for wound healing, and alleviates the patient's feeling of heaviness in the anus. The reasonable structural design ensures even pressure distribution, avoids excessive local pressure, reduces patient pain, and promotes postoperative recovery.

[0023] Secondly, the surface of the anal support is lined with flexible materials such as memory foam or sponge, which are soft to the touch and conform to the curves of the human body, reducing the pressure on the skin and ensuring comfort even after long-term use. It can deform appropriately with the movement of the human body, without affecting normal activities, and can continuously provide stable support, thus improving wearing comfort.

[0024] Third, the use of a D-ring connection method makes it easy to adjust the length and tightness of each component, and can be personalized according to the patient's body shape and recovery status to ensure a stable and comfortable fit.

[0025] Fourth, the front and rear connecting straps between the left and right shoulder straps enhance the stability of the overall structure, prevent the shoulder straps from shifting or slipping, and ensure that the anal support always plays an effective role during use.

[0031] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0032] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0033] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, this embodiment of the present invention provides an anal support for post-hemorrhoid surgery, comprising:

[0034] Anal support 1; Anal support 1 is a key component that directly contacts the anus and provides support. The shape, material and structural design of anal support 1 directly affect the support effect on the anus and the patient's comfort. The function of anal support 1 is to lift the anus, reduce the feeling of anal prolapse after surgery, and create favorable conditions for wound healing.

[0035] The anal pocket 1 has four vertices that connect to the left front pocket strap 10, the right front pocket strap 3, the left rear pocket strap 8, and the right rear pocket strap 9, respectively. These four straps connect the anal pocket 1 to the shoulder straps, serving to transmit force. By connecting to the four vertices of the anal pocket 1, it can be pulled and fixed from different directions, ensuring that the anal pocket 1 maintains a stable position during use, thereby stably supporting the anus.

[0036] The ends of the left front pocket 10 and right front pocket 3 are connected to the left shoulder strap 6 and right shoulder strap 7 respectively via D-ring buckles 4; the ends of the left rear pocket 8 and right rear pocket 9 are connected to the left shoulder strap 6 and right shoulder strap 7 respectively via D-ring buckles 4. The D-ring buckle 4 connection method is adjustable, allowing for easy adjustment of the connection length and tightness between the pockets and shoulder straps according to the patient's body shape and actual needs. This ensures both the stability of the anal support and improves wearing comfort, allowing patients of different body types to find a suitable wearing method. At the same time, this connection method also makes it easy for patients to put on and take off the support themselves.

[0037] Among these components, at least one of the following—the anal support 1, left shoulder strap 6, right shoulder strap 7, left front pocket 10, right front pocket 3, left rear pocket 8, and right rear pocket 9—is elastic; preferably, both left shoulder strap 6 and right shoulder strap 7, or both left front pocket 10, right front pocket 3, left rear pocket 8, and right rear pocket 9—are elastic. The presence of these elastic components allows the anal support to better adapt to the body's movements during use. When the patient moves, the elastic components can deform to a certain extent, preventing discomfort caused by excessive traction, while continuously providing support to the anal support 1, ensuring effective support for the anus. For example, when the patient walks, sits, or lies down, the elastic components can adjust accordingly to changes in body posture.

[0038] The anal support structure includes a front connecting strap 5 and a rear connecting strap 2 between the left shoulder strap 6 and the right shoulder strap 7. The front connecting strap 5 connects laterally to the front of the left shoulder strap 6 and the right shoulder strap 7, while the rear connecting strap 2 connects laterally to the rear of the left shoulder strap 6 and the right shoulder strap 7. The function of the front connecting strap 5 and the rear connecting strap 2 is to further enhance the stability of the entire anal support structure. By connecting the left shoulder strap 6 and the right shoulder strap 7 laterally, the straps are prevented from slipping off the patient's shoulders during use, ensuring that the anal support remains in the correct wearing position and thus stably providing support for the anus.

[0039] In this embodiment, at least one surface of the left front pocket 10, right front pocket 3, left rear pocket 8, and right rear pocket 9 is sewn with self-adhesive Velcro. Specifically, the Velcro design increases the flexibility of adjustment. During use, the patient can quickly adjust the length of the pockets according to actual needs using the Velcro, thereby further fine-tuning the lifting force of the anal pocket 1 on the anus and the overall wearing comfort of the anal support. Moreover, the self-adhesive properties of the Velcro make the adjustment process simple and convenient, without the need for other tools.

[0040] In this embodiment, the surface of the anal pocket 1 is lined with a flexible material, including memory foam or sponge. Specifically, flexible materials such as memory foam or sponge have good softness and comfort, which can effectively reduce the pressure of the anal pocket 1 on the skin around the anus. They can conform to the curves of the human body, reduce local pressure concentration, improve the comfort of the patient when wearing it, and also help to avoid skin damage caused by prolonged wear.

[0041] In this embodiment, the two sides of the anal pocket 1 are shaped as concave hyperbolic curves. Specifically, the concave hyperbolic shape is designed to better fit the contour of the patient's anus. This shape allows the anal pocket 1 to fit snugly against the anus, improving the stability and effectiveness of the support, while reducing discomfort caused by a poor fit, making the patient more comfortable and at ease during wear.

[0042] In one possible embodiment, a chest strap and a back strap are also included, which are connected to the left shoulder strap 6 and the right shoulder strap 7 respectively via a D-ring buckle 4. Specifically, the addition of the chest strap and back strap further enhances the overall fixation effect of the anal support. By connecting with the shoulder straps, the force-bearing range of the anal support is expanded to the chest and back, making the anal support more securely fixed on the patient's body and reducing the possibility of displacement of the anal support during activities, thereby ensuring that the lifting effect on the anus remains stable.

[0043] In one possible embodiment, the anal pocket 1 is made of a flexible material, including cotton fabric, memory foam, or sponge. Specifically, the anal pocket 1 uses flexible materials such as memory foam or sponge, which on the one hand increases comfort when in contact with the skin and reduces friction on the skin; on the other hand, the flexible material has a certain degree of elasticity and cushioning, which can alleviate discomfort caused by pulling while transmitting the supporting force, thus improving the patient's wearing experience.

[0044] In one possible embodiment, the D-ring buckle 4 between the end of the left front pocket 10 and the end of the left shoulder strap 6 is in the open state; the D-ring buckle 4 between the end of the right front pocket 3 and the right shoulder strap 7 is in the open state. The D-ring buckle 4 between the end of the left rear pocket 8 and the end of the left shoulder strap 6 is in the open state; the D-ring buckle 4 between the end of the right rear pocket 9 and the right shoulder strap 7 is in the open state.

[0045] Specifically, the left front pocket 10 and right front pocket 3 are connected and adjusted to the corresponding shoulder straps. The open D-ring buckle 4 allows the patient to easily choose the appropriate connection position according to their own situation to achieve the best wearing effect and improve the convenience of wearing. Similar to the principle of the open state of the D-ring buckle 4 at the end points of the left front pocket 10 and right front pocket 3, the open state of the D-ring buckle 4 at the end points of the left rear pocket 8 and right rear pocket 9 is also to facilitate the patient to adjust the connection between these two pockets and the shoulder straps during wearing, ensuring that the entire anal support is worn securely and comfortably.

[0046] The method of using this utility model is as follows: First, preparation: Check whether all parts of the anal support are intact and whether the adjustment devices such as the D-ring 4 and Velcro are working properly. Confirm that the flexible material, such as cotton cloth, memory foam or sponge, is not displaced or deformed.

[0047] Second, put on the shoulder straps: Wrap the left shoulder strap 6 and right shoulder strap 7 around the patient's left and right shoulders respectively, and adjust their positions so that they rest comfortably on the shoulders. Pay attention to the direction of the shoulder straps, ensuring that the front connecting strap 5 and the back connecting strap 2 are located on the front and back of the body respectively.

[0048] Third, connect the straps to the shoulder straps: Open the D-rings 4 between the end of the left front strap 10 and the end of the left shoulder strap 6, and between the end of the right front strap 3 and the end of the right shoulder strap 7, and connect the left front strap 10 and the right front strap 3 to their respective shoulder straps. Adjust the connection length using the D-rings 4 according to the patient's body shape to ensure the straps are snug. Similarly, open and connect the D-rings 4 between the end of the left back strap 8 and the end of the left shoulder strap 6, and between the end of the right back strap 9 and the end of the right shoulder strap 7, adjusting the length as needed. If the straps have Velcro, the strap length can be further fine-tuned to adjust the lifting force on the anus.

[0049] Fourth, place the anal support 1: Place the anal support 1 between the patient's legs, supporting it below the anus. Since the sides of the anal support 1 are concave hyperbolic, ensure that it fits closely to the contour of the patient's anus to improve the stability and comfort of the support.

[0050] Fifth, adjust overall comfort: Check the position of the anal support 1, shoulder straps, and pocket straps to ensure there are no areas that are too tight or too loose. If you feel that the pressure in a certain area is too high or too low, you can make a minor adjustment again using the D-ring 4 or Velcro. At the same time, confirm that the chest strap and back strap are securely connected to the left shoulder strap 6 and right shoulder strap 7 respectively via the D-ring 4 to further enhance the overall fixation effect. If the patient feels discomfort during wearing, such as itching or increased pain, they should remove the anal support for inspection immediately. Regularly check the connection of each component, especially the D-ring 4 and Velcro, and adjust them promptly if they become loose. Depending on the recovery progress, the lifting force of the anal support 1 and the overall tightness of the fit can be adjusted as needed.

[0051] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0052] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
