is now when crabs are on the market in large quantities. Many people in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas like to eat raw pickled shrimp and crab . In fact, although they will soak some wine when pickled raw, they cannot be as safe as they are cooked. Recently, Run Run Shaw Hospital of Zhejiang University received an emergency patient due to eating crabs raw.
This is a middle-aged male patient. At that time, he came to the hospital for unbearable pain in the left waist and back. During the examination, he found that there was an indicator called eosinophils in blood conventional . The value was far beyond the normal range, which attracted the attention of the doctor. At the same time, inflammation was also found in his stomach.

Suspected that he may have eosinophilic gastroenteritis, inflamed in the intestines, and tissue fluid oozing out, which affects the waist, so it will hurt.
The doctor introduced that eosinophilia is often related to allergies or parasitic infections. Therefore, the doctor asked the patient in detail whether he had eaten any food that caused allergies or raw food, but he denied it until one day after he was hospitalized, he suddenly remembered that he had eaten a crab raw during the summer vacation, and this was the culprit that caused him to get sick.

He said that while playing by the stream, his daughter was pinched by a crab, and it hurt. He was very angry, picked up the crab and put it into his mouth, "aggressing" and eating it for his daughter. This crab is from a small stream with parasites.
After symptomatic treatment, the patient has improved significantly and has been discharged from the hospital and has been dewormed with drugs, and his blood indicators have returned to normal.
In daily life, there should be few crabs like this patient who eat raw, and the most common ones are the raw shrimps and crabs that are marinated with wine. So, after marinating it in wine, is it safe to eat raw? The doctor said that this cannot guarantee absolute safety.
Cao Qian, chief physician of the Department of Gastroenterology at Run Run Run Shaw Hospital of Zhejiang University,
Theoretically, raw pickling is safer than eating it directly, because alcohol has been treated, but it is not 100% safe, because Alcohol cannot kill all parasites. If it is not handled properly, similar problems may occur like this patient.
