On this day, a young man with a haggard face and anxious eyes came to the clinic, named Zhang Wei.
"Director, I have been feeling uncomfortable in my liver area lately, with a dull pain, and my skin is always yellow, what's going on?" Zhang Wei unconsciously rubbed his liver area as he spoke, his face full of worry.
The old director nodded slightly, motioned for Zhang Wei to sit down, and then slowly spoke: "The liver is the 'model worker' in our body, it works in obscurity, but it is often ignored by us. Did you know that some behaviors can damage the liver even more than staying up late? ”
Zhang Wei looked dazed, obviously unprepared for this question. Seeing this, the old director began his popular science: "For example, excessive drinking, after alcohol enters the body, more than ninety percent of the alcohol needs the liver to catabolize. If you drink a lot of alcohol for a long time, your liver will become like an overloaded machine and may eventually collapse. ”
Zhang Wei nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then I don't usually drink much, how can this be?" ”
The old director smiled slightly and said: "In addition to drinking, there are also behaviors such as often eating greasy and high-sugar foods and indiscriminate drugs, which may also cause damage to the liver." For example, do you usually like to eat fried chicken, hamburgers, and milk tea? ”
Zhang Wei scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Yes, I am usually busy with work, and I often rely on these fast foods for lunch." ”
The old director shook his head and said: "These high-sugar and high-fat foods are a great threat to the liver, and long-term excessive intake of fat and sugar will increase the risk of fatty liver. Also, do you take medicine by yourself as soon as you have a little headache and brain fever? ”
Zhang Wei said in surprise: "Yes, I think it's all a minor problem, there is no need to go to the hospital." ”
The old director said solemnly: "That's the problem. Many drugs need to be metabolized by the liver after they are ingested into the body. Blind medication, overdosing, and even misuse of health supplements can cause irreparable damage to the liver. ”
Speaking of this, the old director paused, and his gaze swept over the several young doctors present, as if testing their medical knowledge. He asked, "Do you know how to protect your liver effectively?" ”
A young doctor tentatively replied: "Maintain a regular schedule, avoid alcohol, eat reasonably, exercise moderately......"
The old director nodded in affirmation, and then added: "Another important point is to replenish water in moderation. The liver needs enough water to maintain its normal metabolic function. Especially after exercise or hot weather, it is important to replenish water and salt in time. ”
Zhang Wei was terrified when he heard this, it turned out that he had so many behaviors that hurt his liver in his daily life. He asked uneasily, "So what should I do now?" Is there something wrong with my liver? ”
The old director comforted: "Don't worry, we will do a comprehensive examination for you to find out the cause." If it is fatty liver, hepatitis and other diseases, we will formulate a corresponding treatment plan for you. However, the most important thing is that you change these bad habits. ”
In the next few days, the old director arranged a comprehensive inspection for Zhang Wei. The results showed that his liver did show signs of mild fatty liver. After learning this result, Zhang Wei was both surprised and remorseful.
According to the results of the examination, the old director formulated a detailed treatment plan for Zhang Wei, and told him to change his eating habits, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and eat less greasy and high-sugar food; Maintain a regular schedule and avoid staying up late; Moderate exercise to enhance the body's immunity; The most important thing is to use medication rationally and never blindly self-medicate.
Zhang Wei followed the advice of the old director and began to change his lifestyle. After a few months, his liver function gradually returned to normal and his skin no longer turned yellow. He said gratefully to the old director: "Director, thank you so much!" If it weren't for you, I might still be hurting my liver in ignorance! ”
The old director smiled and waved his hand: "Don't thank me, this is a change that you should thank yourself for." Remember, the liver is a precious asset in our body, and we must cherish it. ”
This in-depth analysis between doctors and patients caused by liver problems not only allowed Zhang Wei to solve the doubts in his heart, but also benefited the young doctors present. They deeply realized the breadth and profundity of medicine and the great responsibility of doctors.
Through this experience, Zhang Wei also realized the importance of health. He began to focus on eating a healthy diet, eating more fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains. Maintain a regular schedule and get enough sleep every day; Moderate exercise to enhance the body's immunity. He also shared his experience with his friends and family, hoping that they would also take liver health seriously.
The old director looked at Zhang Wei's changes, and his heart was full of relief. He knew that through his own efforts, he had saved another precious life. He prayed silently, hoping that everyone would cherish their bodies and stay away from illness.
