1, I lost 20 Jin after eating spicy strips.
Lingling (pseudonym), this year 1 1 years old, is from Zitong, Mianyang. She especially likes spicy strips with a bag of fifty cents off campus. In recent years, she has at least 2 bags a day, and many of them have reached 5 or 6 bags. A few days ago, Lingling had severe diarrhea and abdominal pain. She has loose bowels 10 many times a day and lost more than 20 kilograms. At first, her parents thought it was just common enteritis, but many treatments failed. Recently, Lingling was diagnosed as a rare Crohn's disease in a hospital in Mianyang.
At present, Lingling's condition has been controlled and she has been discharged from the hospital. 16, the doctor said that Lingling's love of spicy strips was the cause of the disease and it was not easy to cure the disease. Lingling must pay attention to her diet in the future and don't eat junk food that irritates her stomach.
Lingling just turned 1 1 years old this year. She looks thin and dark yellow. He is less than 1.4 meters tall and looks like an 8-or 9-year-old child. Before July last year, I lived with my parents who worked in Guangdong. At that time, Lingling occasionally had symptoms of abdominal pain and diarrhea. Lingling's mother, Ms. Li, thought that the child just ate her stomach and bought medicine for Lingling. Last July, Lingling transferred to her primary school in Zitong, Mianyang, but the frequency of abdominal pain and diarrhea became higher and higher. After more than a year, Lingling had diarrhea for many times, accompanied by abdominal pain, and defecated at least 4 or 5 times a day.
"At that time, I thought that my stomach was bad and I had enteritis. I also thought that the child was still chubby, and there could be no big problem with the child, so I didn't take it seriously. Every time I buy some medicine at the drugstore, I can take care of it for a few days. " 16, Ms. Li said in an interview with Chengdu Business Daily.
Until September this year, Lingling had loose bowels every day, defecating 10 times a day, accompanied by abdominal pain and anorexia. I lost more than 20 kilograms when I lost weight. This time, Ms. Li was frightened, so she quickly took Xiao Fang to Zitong local hospital for examination and treatment.
"At that time, the hospital found pus cells, white blood cells and red blood cells. In the stool, it was diagnosed as infectious diarrhea. However, after antibiotic infusion treatment, diarrhea became more and more serious. " Ms. Li said that the child is still getting thinner and thinner, but she has no choice but to go to the Department of Gastroenterology of Mianyang Eighth People's Hospital for treatment.
2, suffering from a rare Crohn's disease
On the morning of 16, Zuo Xiaomei, director of the Department of Gastroenterology, Mianyang Eighth People's Hospital, introduced: "None of the indicators examined at that time had the typical symptoms of Crohn's disease (mucus pus and bloody stool). We convened a joint consultation of several departments of the hospital. After repeated discussions, we believe that when Lingling has symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss and stunting, inflammatory bowel disease should still be the first consideration, and teenagers should be particularly alert to the possibility of Crohn's disease. " Therefore, the hospital decided to do colonoscopy for Lingling to make a clear diagnosis. "Through colonoscopy, we found that there were many ulcers of different sizes on the whole large intestine of the child, and Crohn's disease was diagnosed after pathological biopsy."
At the same time, Zuo Xiaomei also got in touch with Professor Zhang Sumin, a doctoral supervisor of Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and an external expert of inflammatory bowel disease platform, and asked Professor Zhang Sumin to specially examine the child and think that the diagnosis was clear. After the diagnosis, the inflammatory bowel disease team led by Zuo Xiaomei made a formal diagnosis and treatment plan for Lingling. After enteral nutrition, gas enema and oral medication, Lingling's condition was quickly controlled, her abdominal pain disappeared, her stool frequency gradually decreased and her weight gradually increased.
"Crohn's disease is very rare, but the incidence has increased in recent years, especially among young people. Moreover, it is often mistaken for chronic enteritis by ordinary people, and medical treatment is not timely, and the misdiagnosis rate is high. " Zuo Xiaomei said.
Why did Lingling suffer from such a rare disease at an early age? During the treatment, Zuo Xiaomei communicated with Lingling and found that Lingling loved to eat a bag of spicy strips with 50 cents outside school. Zuo Xiaomei thinks this is the main reason for Lingling's illness.
/kloc-on the morning of 0/6, Ms. Li introduced that in Guangdong, she used to give Lingling some pocket money every day, mainly to buy snacks for her children. She said it was normal for children to eat snacks. After returning to Zitong, due to work reasons, she would give Lingling 7 and 8 yuan money to go out for breakfast every morning, but Lingling mostly used the money to buy snacks.
"She especially likes to eat the fifty cents a bag of spicy strips outside the school. Several times I went to pick her up after school in the afternoon and saw her eating. There were as few as two bags and as many as five or six bags in her schoolbag. I told her to eat less at that time, but I couldn't control it. " Ms. Li said that after Lingling became ill, the doctor said it might be related to eating spicy strips for a long time. She specifically asked Lingling to eat at least two bags a day on average.
Zuo Xiaomei said that Crohn's disease is a non-specific and lovely inflammation, that is, there is no clear bacterial cause, but Lingling's long-term eating of spicy strips is definitely the cause of the disease. "Spicy strips are unsanitary first, and then contain a lot of spices that stimulate the stomach, such as essence and cumin. The child is not fully developed. If eaten in large quantities, it will inevitably stimulate the intestines, thus reducing its own resistance. " Zuo Xiaomei said.
Hu Bing, deputy chief physician of the Department of Gastroenterology, Huaxi Hospital, said that the etiology of Crohn's disease has not been fully studied, and many factors such as infection, heredity and immunity will lead to the disease. But this little girl loves to eat spicy strips. Eating these unsanitary foods for a long time will stimulate the intestines, cause intestinal inflammation and aggravate the condition.
Zuo Xiaomei introduced that inflammatory bowel disease is a special chronic intestinal inflammatory disease, mainly including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Clinically, patients will show repeated abdominal pain, diarrhea, mucus and bloody stools, and even various systemic complications such as blurred vision, joint pain and rash. Patients' intestines can't normally absorb carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins and various trace elements. Intestinal inflammation or drugs taken may cause poor appetite, so they are often accompanied by malnutrition in different degrees, and even affect the normal growth and development of children.
Lingling was discharged from the hospital a few days ago. Zuo Xiaomei explained to Ms. Li that she should not only take medicine on time after discharge, but also never eat spicy strips, peppers and other foods that stimulate the stomach. "The treatment of Crohn's disease is a long process, and the cure is not easy. If you don't pay attention to your diet, it will cause recurrence. Therefore, you can only control symptoms and reduce recurrence. " Zuo Xiaomei said that patients must pay more attention to diet and try to eat less fiber food; Because of slow absorption, you need to eat less and eat more meals; Take more vitamins, protein, water-soluble calcium and fat.
