To put it mildly, human life can be summed up in five words, that is, "eat, drink, and sleep." Quite a few people are more concerned about eating, drinking, and sleeping, but they are more careless about "pulling".
Mr. Li, who just turned 41 this year, finally won the "sales champion" crown in the company with his ability to climb and roll. But he didn't dare to relax at all.
After all, at this age, it is the middle-aged pressure period for the elderly and children. Many of my friends have reached the watershed of this age, and it seems that there are only two ways to be laid off and promoted to supervisor.
There is no need to socialize with sales. Mr. Li's socializing continued, and he always had recurrent hemorrhoids. When he found that he always had stomach pains and was prone to constipation, he was not too nervous.
In the past, Mr. Li defecated once a day, and almost all of them were thunderous. Recently, either constipation is uncomfortable, or it takes four or five times a day to relieve the stool.
And her poop was dark red and she was standing on the toilet. If you don't press the pump button two or three times, you can't wash it clean.
At first, the family noticed that the toilet was not very clean, and then found that Mr. Li was squatting in the toilet for longer and longer. As soon as he asked him, he said that it should be the same old mistake.
The family prepared the medicine for him that he used to take, and it was over. As the work became busier and busier, Mr. Li's symptoms did not improve in any way, and people became more and more emaciated.
Taking advantage of a transfer, the family accompanied Mr. Li to the hospital for a check-up. After listening to their situation, the doctor prescribed a colonoscopy and said that he would come after 3 days to get the report.
After 3 days, Mr. Li reported to his colon mirror and suddenly felt that the sky had collapsed. He didn't know how to tell his family about it. Originally thought it was hemorrhoids, how did it become advanced colon cancer?
Stool has the effect of early warning of bowel cancer, so be careful with this kind of stool
In fact, as the final product of the metabolism in the human body, stool can reflect whether various organs of the body are abnormal.
If there is an abnormal problem in the intestine, the shape, frequency, habits, etc. of the stool will change. Usually pay more attention to it, which may play a role in early warning of bowel cancer.
01 Number of bowel movements
The number of bowel movements in a normal person in a day is normal in the range of 1-3 times. Sometimes, because of special circumstances such as eating more and exercising, it may fluctuate a little.
But like Mr. Li, the number of bowel movements that were originally thunderous in a day should be paid attention to when they suddenly changed. Intestinal lesions stimulate bowel movements, and the number of times is different.
02 Stool patterns
In general, the normal shape of the stool should be like a banana, with a yellowish color.
However, if the stool suddenly becomes thin, less formed and sticky, it is possible that the intestine has developed a lesion.
Especially when edema occurs in the intestine, or even when there is a tumor, it will squeeze into the stool, resulting in deformation.
03 Rotation constipation/diarrhea
This condition is often prone to occur in patients with colon cancer. This is because the left half of the colon is narrower than the right half of the colon, so one side is prone to intestinal obstruction, and the other side is prone to intestinal paralysis.
04 Hemorrhoidal stool blood VS bowel cancer blood in the stool
Blood in the stool is not a normal, healthy state. But many people will wonder, what is the difference between hemorrhoidal blood in the stool and blood in the bowel cancer?
In general, hemorrhoids bleed, the color is relatively bright red, this is because it is related to friction. And there is no stool mucus.
The color of bowel cancer blood in the stool is often dark red. And the color of the stool is often relatively dark. This is because the blood in the intestinal cavity has been stored for a long time, the color changes, and it is easier to have mucus.
Dr.X said
Usually, many people ignore their stool reactions, thinking that studying this is more disgusting, or too irrelevant. In fact, it is also a signal of intestinal health.
