The Year of the Tiger is coming, and the eating and drinking conferences during the holidays have all been arranged? Although, a few years ago, people were lamenting that the taste of the New Year was getting weaker and weaker, but in the New Year, there should be some rituals, or there should be, visit relatives and friends, eat and drink, it is inevitable. At this time, the hospital will also be particularly busy, some people will be because of overeating, there is persistent abdominal pain, sent to the emergency room, especially those suffering from cholelithiasis, if you can not control the diet, may induce acute pancreatitis, delay in treatment will be life-threatening. Let's get to know this disease now.
Speaking of acute pancreatitis, let's first review the tragedy of the poet. According to the New Book of Tang, in the fifth year of the Gregorian calendar, the poet Du Fu prepared to go to Chenzhou to join his uncle, and on the way he caught up with the great water, "No food is allowed to be heard in the tenth month, and the county orders the boat to welcome it, but it must be returned." Ling tasted the ox hot liquor, drunk, a pawn. Shi Sheng had nothing to eat for many days, and after the local officials heard the news, they sent a boat to pick up Shi Sheng and prepared roast meat and liquor. Shi Sheng, who had been hungry for a few days, immediately set off, took a big bite of meat and drank wine in a large bowl, and finally got drunk and died at night.
Some friends may ask, why do you infer that the cause of death of Shi Sheng is acute pancreatitis? This is because overeating is an important factor in inducing acute pancreatitis, and the course of the disease develops rapidly, and the mortality rate of severe pancreatitis can reach 50%, even after surgical treatment, the mortality rate can reach 20%. The pathological process of acute pancreatitis is the rupture of the glandular pancreatic vesicle, due to the action of pancreatic enzymes, causing the pancreatic tissue to digest itself, bleeding and necrosis. In the era when Shi Sheng lived, there was no doctor who could do surgery, and after acute pancreatitis, it was difficult to treat and would lead to death in a very short time.
The pancreas is an important digestive organ. The pancreatic juice secreted by the pancreas flows into the duodenum along with bile. The end of the main pancreatic duct and the end of the common bile duct will converge into Vater ampulobelis, if you suffer from cholelithiasis, this part may be blocked by stones, pancreatic juice and bile flow is blocked, more and more accumulation, the pancreatic duct is expanded, the pancreatic juice will overflow, pancreatic enzymes will be activated, will destroy the pancreas and surrounding tissues, pancreas edema, as well as bleeding and necrosis, acute pancreatitis thus begins to occur.
The main manifestation of acute pancreatitis is abdominal pain. The site of pain, usually located in the middle or left of the upper abdomen, the pain can also radiate to the waist, the patient feels a tying sensation in the upper abdomen and lower back, after the pain occurs, it is difficult to relieve, it is persistent, or paroxysmal intensification, the nature of the pain is knife-cut, but when the body is flexed, it may be reduced. At the same time, nausea, vomiting, and bloating may occur.
The location of abdominal pain is an indicator of acute pancreatitis, and if the pancreatic head is more severely diseased, abdominal pain is mainly in the right upper quadrant and radiates to the right shoulder. If the lesion occurs in the pancreatic tail, abdominal pain is predominantly in the left upper quadrant and radiates to the left shoulder. Edematous pancreatitis, fever is less pronounced, hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis, high fever occurs. Jaundice can also occur if pancreatic edema forms compression, or if biliary tract disease is present at the same time.
The causes of acute pancreatitis are mainly biliary tract diseases and overeating, in addition, the incidence of acute pancreatitis caused by hyperlipidemia has increased in recent years. Biliary tract diseases that induce acute pancreatitis, mainly include cholelithiasis, biliary tract infections, and biliary roundworms, which cause biliary spasm, resulting in biliary obstruction. Overeating-induced acute pancreatitis accounts for more than 35% of all cases. In addition, duodenal disease, hyperlipidemia, surgery and trauma, infection and systemic inflammatory response can also induce acute pancreatitis. Therefore, for ordinary people, the measures to prevent acute pancreatitis are mainly to actively treat biliary tract diseases, especially cholelithiasis, and at the same time, to avoid overeating. During the Chinese New Year, people with cholelithiasis need to eat a moderate diet. If there is persistent abdominal pain after eating and drinking, do not be careless, you should seek medical treatment in time, conduct a comprehensive examination and confirm the diagnosis, so as not to delay treatment. Well, finally, I wish you all good health and good luck in the new 1 year.
