Background:Perianal abscess is a common acute anorectal pyogenic disease (8%-25% of anorectal illnesses), mainly seen in men aged 20-40. Over 90% suffer severe postoperative pain, impairing healing, triggering anxiety or sepsis and raising medical loads. Western multimodal analgesia eases pain yet causes dependence and side effects. TCM sitz baths clear heat, reduce swelling and promote recovery. Few personalized combined protocols are available, and integrated Chinese-Western synergies are insufficiently exploited. This optimized integrated intervention guides postoperative pain nursing.

TCM sitz bath
Time frame: Postoperative days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 2 weeks and 1 month
The Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) for pain assessment ranges from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating more severe pain and poorer outcomes.
Time frame: Postoperative days 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 2 weeks and 1 month
Total consumption of analgesics was converted to morphine equivalent daily dose (MEDD) for intergroup comparison.
Time frame: at day 3 and month 1 postoperatively
The Short-Form 36 (SF-36) Health Survey was employed to evaluate quality of life, with each domain scored from 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum), and higher scores reflecting more favorable health status and better quality of life.
Time frame: 24 hours postoperatively
Patients were placed in the supine position with a moderately full bladder. The ultrasound probe was positioned above the pubic symphysis, and the anteroposterior, transverse, and longitudinal diameters of the bladder were measured. The post-void residual urine volume was calculated using the formula: bladder volume (mL) ≈ 0.52 × length × width × height (cm). A residual volume of <50 mL was considered normal, 50-200 mL indicated mild urinary retention or impaired voiding, and >200 mL was diagnostic of postoperative urinary retention. Complete inability to void with a bladder volume of >400 mL was defined as acute urinary retention.
Time frame: 24 hours postoperatively
Active oozing from the surgical wound occurring beyond 24 hours postoperatively, with a blood loss of ≥5 mL, requiring dressing change and continuous compression hemostasis with sterile gauze; secondary suturing is indicated if bleeding cannot be controlled.
Time frame: within 72 hours postoperatively
Perianal edema was defined as visible significant soft-tissue swelling around the operative site, accompanied by local tenderness, with the edema persisting for more than 72 hours.
Time frame: assessed preoperatively and at 1 month postoperatively
Erectile function in male patients was evaluated using the International Index of Erectile Function-5 (IIEF-5), which has a total score ranging from 5 (minimum) to 25 (maximum), with higher scores denoting better erectile function. For female patients, sexual function was assessed using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), with total scores ranging from 2 to 36, where a higher score indicates better sexual function.
