Can you eat Chinese toon with proctitis?
If the condition of colitis is not particularly severe, you can eat some Chinese toon sprouts in moderation. Chinese toon contains aromatic organic compounds, which can invigorate the spleen, stimulate the appetite, clear heat, promote dampness, and detoxify. It can help treat diseases such as enteritis, dysentery, and urinary system infections. However, it is important not to eat too much at once, as it may cause abdominal distension and worsen diarrhea. It is important to maintain a balanced nutrition and arrange your diet reasonably.
How to deal with nausea and the urge to vomit from cholecystitis?
Nausea and vomiting caused by cholecystitis should be treated with medications according to individual clinical symptoms. At the same time, it is important to make a correct judgment based on the cause of the disease. If cholecystitis is caused by overeating, medications that aid digestion should be used first to alleviate symptoms. If a bacterial infection is confirmed, antibiotics should also be used to reduce inflammation and treat the condition symptomatically. Patients with cholecystitis should maintain a light diet, avoid overeating and greasy food, and should quit smoking and drinking alcohol, maintaining a structured lifestyle.
What should I do about 7 episodes of gastrointestinal bleeding due to cirrhosis?
There are manifestations of cirrhosis, and it is accompanied by upper gastrointestinal bleeding, which occurs frequently. At this time, a gastroscopy should be conducted, in combination with an ultrasound examination of the liver, to determine whether portal hypertension is causing the bleeding. If the condition is serious, surgical treatment, such as disconnection or shunting, may be needed to relieve the pressure on the portal vein and mitigate the bleeding. Alternatively, vascular ligation can also be performed under gastroscopy to ligate the ruptured vessels, which can also stop the bleeding. Otherwise, long-term repeated heavy bleeding can easily lead to hemorrhagic anemia, and in severe cases, it can cause hemorrhagic shock, posing a life-threatening risk.
Will routine blood tests be normal for Crohn's disease?
If you have Crohn's disease, conducting a routine blood test can be helpful for an auxiliary diagnosis. If the routine blood test for someone with Crohn's disease shows an increase in white blood cells, it may be indicative of a bacterial infection. Crohn's disease can lead to persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, and inadequate absorption of nutrients. It may also result in anemia, low red blood cell count, and low hemoglobin levels. Diagnosis can be confirmed by considering the individual's clinical symptoms in conjunction with stool routine tests and colonoscopy examinations.
How many days to rest for acute gastroenteritis?
Patients with acute gastroenteritis experience rapid onset of symptoms but can recover quickly with proper and standard treatment after diagnosis. Acute gastroenteritis generally involves simultaneous infection of the intestinal and gastric mucosa by bacteria or viruses. With appropriate treatment, using anti-inflammatory medications or probiotics, the disease can be rapidly resolved without any problems, typically healing within two to three days. Therefore, when suffering from acute gastroenteritis, it is important to rest, preferably by staying in bed without engaging in strenuous activities to avoid exacerbating the condition. Usually, taking two to three days off from work is completely sufficient.
Can Crohn's disease be inherited by the next generation?
The causes of Crohn's disease are not yet fully understood, but it is currently believed to be caused by the interaction of many factors, including environmental factors, genetic factors, infections, gut microbiota, and immune factors. The incidence of Crohn's disease in first-degree relatives of patients is significantly higher than in the general population. Therefore, it is considered that Crohn's disease is both a polygenic disease and a genetically heterogeneous disease. Individuals with genetic susceptibility may develop the disease under certain environmental influences. Thus, it appears that Crohn's disease has a certain genetic predisposition and can be inherited by the next generation. The typical symptoms of Crohn's disease include abdominal pain, diarrhea, and weight loss. Generally, the course of the disease progresses slowly, often presenting a chronic active phase alternating with remission, tends to be incurable, and has a lifelong tendency to recur. Currently, there is a lack of effective curative treatments for Crohn's disease. The primary approach is drug treatment to control the activity of the disease, maintain disease remission, prevent complications, and avoid intestinal damage.
What items are rechecked in the early stages of cirrhosis?
In the early stages of cirrhosis, it is essential to first re-examine liver function, including transaminases, albumin, total protein, and bilirubin. This is very important. Additionally, it is necessary to recheck the complete blood count to monitor the number of white blood cells and platelets. Another important assessment is a liver ultrasound to observe whether the liver surface is smooth, the width of the portal vein, the presence of portal hypertension, and whether the spleen is enlarged. Furthermore, a re-examination of coagulation function to check for any changes is crucial. In the early stages of liver disease, these are the primary examinations that should suffice. Based on the results, the severity of the condition should be determined. When necessary, in cases of viral-induced cirrhosis such as hepatitis B or C, aggressive antiviral symptomatic treatment should be administered.
Can I eat eggs with colitis?
If you have colitis, you should pay attention to how eggs are prepared. You can eat steamed egg custard or boiled eggs, but avoid scrambled eggs, as they are too greasy and not easy to digest and absorb, which can increase the burden on the intestines and exacerbate the symptoms of colitis. If you suffer from colitis, you should avoid frequently consuming spicy, irritating, or overly greasy foods. Opt for a bland diet to prevent the condition from worsening. When the condition is severe, timely medication treatment is necessary, including mesalazine and Kangfuxin solution. Using Kangfuxin solution for enema can protect the intestinal mucosa and the medication works directly on the affected area, which is very effective. (Please use medication under the guidance of a doctor)
Treatment of occasional fever in Crohn's disease
If Crohn's disease presents with fever, it is generally considered possible that it is caused by a bacterial infection. The first step should be to check a stool routine to see if there is a bacterial infection, and symptomatic treatment measures need to be taken. If the body temperature is not particularly high, some antibiotics can be taken to control the progression of the disease. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, an appropriate amount of antipyretics can be used to control the condition and have a fever-reducing effect. During this period, drink more warm water, avoid spicy and stimulating food, as well as raw and cold fruits, to prevent aggravating the condition.
What to do if bile reflux gastritis keeps recurring?
Bile reflux gastritis recurs, and an ultrasound examination is needed to determine the cause. If it is caused by conditions such as blockage of the common bile duct or bile duct stones, surgery can be considered when the condition is particularly severe. If it is caused by relaxation of the pyloric sphincter, surgery can also be considered for treatment. Generally, conservative treatment is recommended. If conservative treatment is ineffective and the condition recurs or even worsens, surgery can be considered at that time to improve symptoms.
