One noon during the New Year's Day holiday, 56-year-old Uncle Li ate two plates of hot dumplings at home.
But the good times did not last long, and in the afternoon he suddenly felt severe pain in his abdomen, his face was pale, and he hurriedly registered to the nearest hospital.
In the waiting room of the hospital, the pain and anxiety on Uncle Li's face were obvious, he was an ordinary retired worker, and he was optimistic and open-minded on weekdays, which was really rare for him.
In the hospital
An experienced doctor, Dr. Zhang, walked out, he saw Uncle Li's discomfort at a glance, and said easily: "Abdominal pain for a week, it's useless to take medicine?"
Don't worry, let's find out. ”
Although this sentence was relaxed, it made Uncle Li feel a little comforted.
After a detailed consultation and examination, Dr. Zhang recommended Uncle Li to undergo a colonoscopy.
While waiting for the results, Dr. Zhang began to chat with Uncle Li about health knowledge, and his every sentence was humorous, which made the nervous Uncle Li involuntarily relax.
"Did you know that the human body is like a delicate factory, and every part counts.
And your gut is an important production line in this factory. ”
He explained in detail the importance of gut health to the human body and gave examples of some details that are easily overlooked in daily life.
After checking the colonoscopy, the doctor sighed
At this moment, the results of the examination came out, and Dr. Zhang's expression suddenly became serious.
It turned out that Uncle Li's colonoscopy showed that there was a very small polyp in his large intestine, although it is not malignant at present, but if it is not treated in time, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Doctor Zhang sighed deeply and said to Uncle Li, "Fortunately, you came in time, although this little thing is inconspicuous, it is a small precursor to a big problem!"
When Uncle Li heard this, he couldn't help but be afraid.
Dr. Zhang took the opportunity to popularize some knowledge about intestinal polyps to him, and every detail was explained vividly and interestingly, and Uncle Li actually forgot to be afraid and listened attentively to Dr. Zhang's explanation.
Dr. Zhang also emphasized the importance of regular colonoscopy and provided a series of data to support Uncle Li's deep understanding of the necessity of regular check-ups.
But Dr. Zhang suddenly asked a seemingly unrelated question:
"Do you know why our ancestors attached great importance to the color and smell of food?"
Uncle Li was stunned for a moment, and was immediately attracted by Dr. Zhang's next explanation.
Physician Zhang said that the smell and smell of food can not only stimulate appetite, but also affect people's mood and health to some extent.
A dish that is full of flavor and color can make people feel happy and reduce stress, which in turn is closely related to gut health.
This idea, which seems to have no direct connection between food and the gut, actually profoundly reveals the connection between lifestyle Xi and health.
Dr. Zhang's unique style brings this dry medical knowledge to life and fun, while also conveying a profound point that health is inextricably linked to every detail of life.
