The Spring Festival is approaching, beware of bleeding here!

Reunion during the Spring Festival and visiting relatives and friends are the happiest times of the year, but gastrointestinal bleeding, as a common disease during the Spring Festival, often comes to "disrupt things".

【Beware of gastrointestinal bleeding】

There were reports that an elderly man was sent to the emergency room after vomiting blood at home during the Spring Festival. Gastroscopy revealed that the elderly man's esophageal veins were scratched by food, with a large wound and blood all over the esophagus and stomach. There were also patients with a history of liver disease who vomited blood, and examination revealed that esophageal varicose veins were ruptured and bleeding.

【Why is the Spring Festival so popular】

Most people who suffer from gastrointestinal bleeding during the Spring Festival have primary diseases of the digestive system, such as gastrointestinal ulcers, gastritis, esophageal varices, etc., and the stimulation of various factors during the Spring Festival induces gastrointestinal bleeding:

1. When the weather is cold, blood vessels contract, blood circulation accelerates, and blood vessel pressure increases, increasing the risk of blood vessel rupture. In addition, when coughing, abdominal pressure increases, which can also increase blood vessel pressure and induce gastrointestinal bleeding.

2. Helicobacter pylori is an important cause of gastrointestinal ulcers. Its activity is enhanced in cold seasons, which not only makes peptic ulcers more frequent, but also easily induces bleeding.

3. During the Spring Festival, people have many gatherings and it is difficult to control their diet. Most of the food they eat is greasy, spicy, and high in protein. These dietary stimulations are extremely detrimental to existing digestive system diseases.

4. Excessive drinking and alcohol irritation to the digestive tract are also important causes of gastrointestinal bleeding.

What are the symptoms of gastrointestinal bleeding?

Common symptoms include vomiting blood, black stools, and blood in the stool.

Hematemesis is bleeding from the esophagus, stomach and duodenum that is vomited out through the mouth, accompanied by nausea. The blood is often dark red or coffee-colored and may be mixed with food. Black stool refers to black or tarry stool, which is caused by the formation of iron sulfide by the action of sulfide in the intestine. If the amount of bleeding is large and the intestines move too fast, dark red stool may be discharged, even with blood clots. When the amount of bleeding is large, it may also be accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, blurred vision, fatigue and even fainting.

【Dietary advice from nutritionist】

1. Nuts. The fat content of nuts can basically reach 50%. People who are overweight, have fat metabolism disorders, hyperlipidemia, and hypercholesterolemia should limit their intake to 15-20 grams a day.

2. Vegetables. They are rich in dietary fiber. The normal daily intake is between 300-500 grams, but it varies from person to person: people who are overweight can increase their vegetable intake appropriately to reduce the intake of other foods. People with poor gastrointestinal function should reduce their vegetable intake appropriately.

3. Meat, eggs, milk, and soy products are sources of high-quality protein. The recommended daily intake of milk is about 200-300 ml; the recommended daily intake of eggs is 6 per week; fish and meat should not be consumed too much, and the recommended daily intake is 100-150 grams; for soy products, for example, soybeans, about 25 grams per day is enough.

[Important reminder: Drinking should be limited]

Drinking a lot of alcohol will put a metabolic burden on the body. If the liver's metabolic capacity is insufficient, you will also experience blushing, or get drunk quickly, or even vomit or pass out. This is alcohol poisoning. So you must drink in moderation and don't drink too much.
