"Beiping Theory" opener
The spleen and stomach are the source of acquired nature and the source of qi and blood, so internal damage to the spleen and stomach, and all diseases are born. The spleen and stomach play an important role in maintaining physical health.
Chief physician Zhang Beiping of the Department of Spleen and Stomach Diseases of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the integrated prevention and treatment team of premature gastrointestinal cancer will regularly push the health care and prevention and treatment knowledge of digestive diseases through this column to protect your digestive health! Welcome to continue to pay attention.
Brother Li was once a meat lover and every meal was "free of meat". Half a year ago, Brother Li had a gastroenteroscopy and found that polyps were found in the colon. He underwent endoscopic intestinal polyps removal. The doctor told him that this was related to his long-standing dietary habits and suggested that he should not consume too much red meat and eat more vegetables and fruits rich in dietary fiber. After returning home, Brother Li began to pay attention to his gastrointestinal health problems, and began to adjust his diet structure, eating more vegetables, fruits, and less meat.
Recently, Brother Li has heard that stool can reflect intestinal diseases, so he began to pay attention to his stool situation every day. However, due to the lack of professional medical knowledge, too much information on the Internet, and Brother Li's excessive attention, he gradually became anxious because of this. His regular bowel movement habits every day became irregular. Brother Li thought to himself, it's over, it's not that colon polyps will grow back so soon.
For this reason, he came to the outpatient clinic of the Department of Spleen and Stomach Diseases of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine to consult his physical condition. After the doctor learned about Brother Li's condition in detail, he told him not to worry too much, continue to eat a reasonable diet, and check colonoscopy regularly. Considering that Brother Li has a phlegm and damp constitution, it is recommended that Chinese medicine be conditioned for a period of time to prevent the recurrence of colon polyps. After listening to the doctor's instructions, Brother Li finally let go of the big stone in his heart.

2. Abnormal stool
1. Constipation
Constipation refers to the number of stools less than 3 times a week, accompanied by symptoms such as reduced stool volume, dry and stool, and fatigue. There are many reasons for constipation, mainly related to insufficient drinking water, insufficient intake of dietary fiber (vegetables, fruits, grains and grains), failure to develop regular and timely defecation habits, and lack of exercise. Drinking more water, eating more vegetables, exercising more, and developing good bowel movements can improve constipation to a certain extent.
For details about constipation, please refer to the previous tweet "Peking Say | One article teaches you to understand "poop"
2. Diarrhea
refers to defecation more than 3 times a day, accompanied by thin feces, and even water-like symptoms. If this situation occurs, you should pay attention to a light diet, try to avoid eating fatty, sweet, thick and greasy foods, avoid drinking alcohol, and reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract. When the stomach and intestines are resting properly, mild diarrhea can be adjusted and restored. If necessary, seek medical treatment in time to avoid dehydration.
Of course, the above situation refers to diarrhea caused by eating the wrong thing occasionally. The editor knows that a considerable number of readers often suffer from diarrhea, so you may have irritable bowel syndrome!
What is irritable bowel syndrome? For details, please see the previous tweet "Peking Says | When you encounter something, your stomach will be "not powerful"? Maybe I have this disease...》
Many friends may have experienced the following situations, so let’s explain it today.
refers to the feeling of burning discomfort and itching around the anus during defecation. It may be a scorching pain, or itching that you want to scratch but dare not.Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this situation is mostly caused by damp heat in the large intestine. At this time, you should avoid eating spicy, dry and hot foods, and strong irritating foods. At the same time, you can use kapok , fire charcoal mother , coix seed and other to remove dampness and to make water instead of tea.
means that the stool is not clean, flushed, or wiped. Even if you want to pull it after pulling it, the stool is stuck to the toilet, or wipe it off, it can't wipe it off. This situation often indicates that the dampness in the body is relatively strong. The daily diet should be light and eat less fatty, sweet, greasy and greasy foods, that is, fatty, sweet, greasy and greasy foods. You can eat appropriate foods that strengthen the spleen and remove dampness, such as: red beans , white lentils , Huaishan , winter melon, etc.
3. You need to see the doctor's stool immediately
For some special poop, the editor hopes that everyone can be very energetic, be responsible for their health, and go to the doctor as soon as possible!
1. Asphalt stool
When you see this black, thin, sticky, shiny feces, shaped like asphalt, if you have not eaten iron-containing foods (animal blood, liver) or activated carbon or bismuth agents recently, it is likely that upper gastrointestinal bleeding ! However, there are many causes of bleeding. You must go to the hospital as soon as possible to improve various examinations, early detection and early treatment.
2. Bloody stool
When you see bright red blood on your stool, you should calmly analyze it.
First, first carefully observe and determine whether it is blood. Think about whether you have eaten red foods such as dragon fruit recently, which can cause red stool.
Second, determine the amount of bleeding. If there are only a few drops, it may be caused by hemorrhoids, anal fissures, etc. You can observe first, but if there are bloody stools for several consecutive days, you need to go to the anorectal clinic for treatment; if the amount of bleeding is large, it is likely that lower gastrointestinal bleeding , such as colon diverticulum, ischemic intestinal disease , rectal cancer and other diseases. You need to seek medical treatment immediately to avoid delaying the condition.
3. Mucus, pus, bloody stool
When you see mucus like snot, or stool with pus, bloody stool, it indicates inflammation in the lower digestive tract, such as dysentery , acute and chronic colitis, inflammatory bowel disease , colorectal cancer, etc. The amount of mucus, pus or blood depends on the type and degree of inflammation. You must go to the hospital for medical treatment in time at this time.
4. Watery stool
Defecation pours down like water, which is caused by hyperincidence of intestinal peristalsis or excessive secretion of intestinal mucosa. It is seen in various infectious and non-infectious diarrhea, such as acute gastroenteritis, hyperthyroidism, etc. You should seek medical treatment in time at this time. A large amount of water loss will cause a dehydration state, and in severe cases, it may even lead to dehydration shock.
5. Long-term bowel habits and changes in fecal traits
Most patients with bowel cancer have no obvious initial symptoms, and even no typical symptoms. When problems are found, many are already in the middle and late stages, which is too late. Therefore, if there is a change in long-term bowel movement habits and fecal traits, it may be because of organic changes in the intestines. We should pay great attention to it, promptly improve stool occult blood tests, colonoscopy and other examinations to rule out the possibility of intestinal cancer!
uses "feces" as a mirror to tell health. We defecate every day, but few people can really understand poop. I hope this tweet will help you re-recognize feces and always pay attention to your gastrointestinal health!
