Wake up early in the morning by birdsong
Open the door and you can smell the fruit trees
This is the life that many people in the city yearn for
Brother Qian (pseudonym) realized this life at the age of 41
He made an orchard on a hill in Jinhuapujiang
Deal with nature every day
however
Because I caught a few wild birds that stole fruit
Brother Qian was seriously ill and was admitted to the hospital
To this end, experts remind:
Some actions don't do!
Some things don't touch!
Some places don't go!
Catch wild birds in the orchard
A month later, he suddenly fell seriously ill
Brother Qian's family are all fruit farmers, since he got married and started a family, he came out on his own, contracted a mountain in Pujiang to plant various fruit trees, compared to his father, Brother Qian, who is familiar with the Network, has managed his orchard through live sales.
Some time ago, the weather warmed up, the wild birds in the orchard suddenly increased, for the fruit farmers, the most difficult to control is not the disease and insect pest but the wild birds, just grown young fruits are pecked by the wild birds, a peck over the fruit is wasted, for the fruit farmers to lose a lot.
"Make a net pocket and grab it, and make an example." Brother Qian used his net pocket to catch wild birds in an attempt to drive wild birds to "invade" the orchard, and ate the wild birds that were caught in red, "It was still delicious, and the meat was very tight." "Brother Qian joked with his lover, which is also considered to have eaten wild game."
A month later, Brother Qian's head hurt severely, and there was a low-grade fever, he thought it was a cold, and there was no relief of symptoms after taking cold medicine on his own, and there was also a jet vomiting, blurred vision in both eyes, and symptoms of hearing weakening, so he went to Pujiang Local Hospital for treatment, and the local doctor asked him to rush to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine for examination and treatment.
It is a disease of catching birds and "infecting"
The onset is very secretive
Huang Jianrong, chief physician of the Department of Infectious Diseases of the First Hospital of Zhejiang University, combined with the symptoms shown by Brother Qian and the behavior of him who had caught wild birds through careful consultation, was highly suspected of cryptococcal meningitis complicated by intracranial hypertension, and it was recommended to do a lumbar puncture. The puncture results confirmed the conjecture of Chief Physician Huang Jianrong that Cryptococcus was positive, and the intracranial pressure was too high to detect a specific value (the highest value of the detection instrument was 450mmH2O, and the intracranial pressure of Brother Qian exceeded 450mmH2O).
"Hurry up and get it." Chief Physician Huang Jianrong said that Brother Qian's situation is very dangerous, such as delaying his eyes and ears will be permanently blind and deaf, and there will be coma and even life danger.
How can catching a bird get seriously ill? Brother Qian's lover was puzzled, and Chief Physician Huang Jianrong explained that it was precisely because of the act of catching birds that led to infection with Cryptococcus, and it was infected when it touched feces during the process of catching birds and killing birds, not because of eating wild birds.
Cryptococcus is a fungus that is widely distributed in the natural environment, especially in the soil, pigeons and other bird droppings. Once people inhale the enriched cryptococcus, cryptococcus invades the lungs through the respiratory system, "latent" in the lungs, when the body's immune system declines, take the opportunity to pass through the blood this "river" to the whole body into the central nervous system, settled in the meninges and brain parenchyma, here because of the rich tyrosine, cryptococcus favorite "food", it will breed offspring here, thus causing meningitis.
Meningitis is actually an inflammation, once the inflammation is serious, there will be effusion exudation, the place of inflammation will also grow granulation tissue, in the vernacular, that is, the "water" in the brain becomes more, and the granulation tissue this "obstruction" in, "water" is more unsmooth, resulting in intracranial hypertension.
"The root of treatment is antibacterial treatment." After a period of drug treatment, Brother Qian's intracranial hypertension has improved, and it is expected to fully restore vision and hearing.
Stay away from old houses and old books in the library
Cryptococcus prefers people living with HIV
In addition to the feces of birds, experts say that we should stay away from old houses that have not been renovated for many years, books that no one has turned over in the library for many years, and these places are also rich in cryptococcus, such as avoiding the recommendation to wear a mask and avoid inhaling the enriched cryptococcus.
"It's not that meningitis happens when you encounter Cryptococcus, so you don't have to panic." Chief physician Huang Jianrong said that cryptococcus exists in nature, and healthy people who encounter a small amount of cryptococcus will not be infected with meningitis, and only by inhaling a large number of cryptococcus at once can there be a possibility of infection.
"But there's one group of people who are Cryptococcus's favorite." Aids infected people due to low immunity, even if the amount of inhalation of cryptococcus is not much, but enough to break their fragile immune system to cause meningitis and other diseases, because the First Hospital of Zhejiang University has an AIDS room, there are hundreds of cases of meningitis patients treated every year.
"In addition, the onset of cryptococcal meningitis is very secretive." Experts said that normal people infected with Cryptococcus onset is relatively slow and secretive, like Brother Qian after a month of obvious symptoms to show, the initial symptoms are similar to the cold, such as do not pay attention to timely treatment, serious crisis of life. "Therefore, when patients have symptoms such as headaches and squirting vomiting, they should go to regular large hospitals for examination and treatment in time."
