Introduction: Galactosemia is a relatively rare medical disease, the main site of patients with galactosemia is the patient's liver, as well as the patient's kidneys and the patient's crystals and brain tissue, mainly due to the patient's galactosuridine metastase deficiency, then it will lead to patients suffering from galactosemia, and some common symptoms are more obvious. For example, there may be persistent vomiting and nausea, diarrhea, etc., but there is no change in weight, and there may be abdominal distention and hypoglycemic proteinuria, etc., so do you know what clinical manifestations will occur in patients with galactosemia? How is it treated?
First, patients with galactosemia, what clinical symptoms will appear
The main reason for lactoseemia in the first half of the patient is the loss of genes in the patient, and galactosemia is also a relatively rare genetic disease, its genetic nature is better, it belongs to autosomal inheritance, and the patient's site of onset is mainly in the liver, kidney and brain tissue. This is the main organ affected by the patient, then, some of the clinical manifestations that occur in patients with galactosemia are now different, mainly divided into three types, the first is the symptoms during the acute period, the second is the trait, and the third is some other symptoms.
1. Symptoms during acute period
Patients with galactosemia may have acute symptoms at the beginning of the disease, then some of the clinical manifestations are also acute clinical manifestations, and most acute patients are young children and children, and some symptoms will appear after a few days of birth or dozens of days, mainly because of the process of brouchin containing galactose and artificial. The presence of galactose will also occur in the process of feeding cow's milk, which will lead to the newborn's large breasts and nausea, vomiting, etc., and these conditions are likely to have more serious complications, that is, diarrhea and jaundice, abdominal distention, hypoglycemia, proteinuria, etc., these symptoms are specific symptoms, so if the above relatively rare symptoms appear.
Be sure to consider whether you have galactosemia, because these symptoms are not found in daily life, there may be abdominal distention and pain and diarrhea in daily life, these are the occurrence of eating expired food and moldy food, there will be some symptoms, but this time must be paid attention to avoid young children. Suffering from the pain of the disease, if the above relatively rare symptoms appear, must be examined in time to be able to intervene in time, may trigger some other adverse symptoms, but must enter the treatment stage as soon as possible, in order to avoid some other complications, can affect the patient's normal life, such as cataracts and mental development disorders.
Cataract is relatively a more serious complication, because it can affect the patient's vision, resulting in some negative effects on the patient's visual life, while the patient's mental development will be impaired, mainly reflected in the spirit and peers is an abnormal state, so it must enter the treatment stage in time to better cure the patient and avoid the trouble caused by galactosemia.
2. Symptoms of patients with mild galactosemia
In patients with galactosemia, some clinical symptoms may be alleviated if symptoms are mild in the early stages of the disease, and of course, may be some of the rarer mild symptoms, but as we age, these symptoms will gradually worsen, for example, possible. Visual impairment is mainly manifested as cataracts, which make patients have certain problems in their daily lives, in terms of vision, and there may also be intellectual disabilities, which will affect the patient's normal life, study, and cirrhosis, which is a relatively serious complication.
Can seriously affect the patient's normal life, resulting in the patient's liver tissue is violated, lesions or cause some other inflammation, because cirrhosis itself is a relatively rare disease, so if this time to change the plaque, lactosemia on the basis of the liver cirrhosis, will make the treatment process more difficult, and in the process of treatment will be more difficult, so if you have some less serious symptoms, you must see a doctor in time, timely treatment, active treatment, Actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan, so that patients can restore their health as soon as possible and avoid the pain of suffering from diseases.
3. Other symptoms
It is true that patients with galactosemia, in addition to the two symptoms mentioned above, there are some other symptoms, because this condition is relatively rare, the above two symptoms are more likely to appear during the onset of the disease, while other symptoms include brain tumors, but this phenomenon is relatively rare, if the brain tumor occurs in the galactose brain. When there is a case of accumulation, who knows that if it is not treated, it will become galactol, because galactitol may form a state of accumulation in the brain, which will lead to edema of the patient's brain, and will also lead to increased cranial pressure in the patient, so these symptoms are also more obvious.
Second, for patients with galactosemia, what treatment options can be used
So, what treatment options can be taken for patients with galactosemia? According to some current studies and clinical diagnosis, there are two main treatment options for patients with galactosemia, but it is necessary to choose the appropriate treatment plan according to the actual situation and pathological development of the patient, the first is intravenous infusion of glucose and new plasma, as well as adjusting the balance of electrolytes, and the second is antibiotics.
If patients with anemia symptoms can use the treatment method of new plasma transfusion can help patients alleviate the symptoms of anemia, but also to avoid blood loss, resulting in the patient's life safety threat situation, but then infusion treatment to supplement electrolytes, in order to maintain the balance of water and electrolytes in the patient's body, this is very attention.
Conclusion: Galactosemia itself is a relatively rare chronic disease, so in the process of treatment, it may take time to see the effect of treatment, so in the process of treatment, we must actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan, respect the doctor's advice to effectively make the patient's life safe, avoid being threatened, and be able to make the healing effect present on the patient's body, if you make up your own mind to adjust the dose of the drug or use other treatment plans, it will have counterproductive consequences.
