Can patients with advanced pancreatic cancer drink yogurt?
Patients with advanced pancreatic cancer can drink yogurt. Yogurt contains fats and proteins, which are not particularly high in content, and also contains probiotics that can effectively aid digestion. It is beneficial for relieving symptoms such as poor appetite, nausea, and vomiting. Drinking a moderate amount of yogurt can be beneficial for the body. Patients in the late stages of pancreatic cancer should adhere to a light diet, avoid greasy foods, and avoid drinking pure milk and soy milk, among others. A light diet should be the main focus.
Is atrophic gastritis grade I serious?
Grade I atrophic gastritis is not serious. Atrophic gastritis refers to the atrophy and reduction of the gastric mucosa and glands, and it manifests with symptoms like stomach discomfort, bloating, stomach pain, and loss of appetite. For those with atrophic gastric cancer, it is important to control the diet, avoid overeating, and abstain from spicy, raw, greasy, and irritating foods. This type of chronic digestive system disease, if not properly managed, can frequently relapse and has the potential to become malignant. If the condition can be controlled and does not frequently recur, it generally does not have a significant impact on the body.
How to regain weight lost due to colitis
If there are symptoms of body wasting due to colitis, treatment should first be directed at the colitis to control the condition. After controlling the condition, it is possible to reduce symptoms of diarrhea and abdominal pain, which is conducive to the digestion and absorption of nutrients in food and can help enhance physical fitness. Normally, care should be taken not to overeat or drink excessively. It is okay to eat moderate amounts of eggs, meat, and dairy, but be careful not to eat too much at once, as this can aggravate the symptoms of colitis.
Can chronic gastritis be contagious?
Is chronic gastritis contagious? Gastritis, especially chronic gastritis, lacks specific symptoms. Common types of chronic gastritis include chronic superficial gastritis, chronic erosive gastritis, and chronic atrophic gastritis. Diagnosis is mainly made through gastroscopy. Most patients may experience symptoms like upper abdominal pain, loss of appetite, post-meal fullness, acid reflux, and belching, which can be quite apparent, especially in patients with atrophic gastritis, who may have more pronounced symptoms, as well as anemia, weight loss, and diarrhea. Additionally, upper abdominal pain associated with mucosal erosion can be more severe. If the condition is serious, it may also involve bleeding, vomiting blood, or black stools. If there is no Helicobacter pylori infection, gastritis is not contagious and can be cured with proper treatment.
Can I eat pineapple with colitis?
If you have colitis, try to eat less pineapple, as this food is relatively stimulating. Consuming it can irritate the intestinal mucosa, leading to congestion and edema of the intestinal mucosa, and aggravate colitis. Pineapple also has the effect of moisturizing the intestines and facilitating bowel movements, leading to an increase in the frequency of bowel movements which can worsen colitis. Therefore, patients with chronic colitis should pay attention to a light diet, avoid cold melons and fruits, and avoid fruits like pineapple. Bananas can also lubricate the intestines, leading to an increase in bowel movements, so they should also be avoided. Instead, you can eat some warm, easily digestible, and non-irritating foods to the intestines.
Can you smoke with esophagitis?
Patients with reflux esophagitis must avoid raw, cold, spicy, and irritating foods, including tobacco, strong tea, and coffee. Nicotine, primarily found in cigarettes, adversely affects the patient's blood vessels and irritates the stomach and esophageal mucosa to varying degrees. It also stimulates the trachea, causing coughing. Therefore, it is crucial for patients with reflux esophagitis to quit smoking. Moreover, these patients must strictly control their diet, avoiding overly spicy, acidic, hot, or overly cold foods. Treatment is important, but regular maintenance is also very crucial.
Can a pacifier be used for intestinal colic?
First, we need to understand the causes of colic. It commonly occurs in infants when breastfeeding or formula feeding, due to ingesting large amounts of air. The air bubbles move within the intestines and cause abdominal pain. Furthermore, overfeeding can lead to excessive stomach expansion, which can also cause discomfort. Therefore, when feeding, it is important to ensure that the child does not inhale a large amount of air. Additionally, using a pacifier can lead to the intake of more air, thereby exacerbating colic. Thus, prevention is more important than treatment. Mothers should be careful not to let the baby inhale air while breastfeeding, as this is the most common cause of the condition.
Can people with bile reflux gastritis do heavy work?
Bile reflux gastritis is a disease of the digestive system. Avoid heavy physical labor as much as possible; engaging in strenuous physical activities can lead to stomach spasms, twitching, and increased contractions, and the bile reflux can irritate the esophageal mucosa. It is also important to rest regularly. When lying down, try to elevate the head to help alleviate the symptoms of reflux. Maintain a light diet; avoid overeating, and do not consume foods that are too greasy, too sweet, too sour, too spicy, or difficult to digest. Strictly abstain from alcohol.
What are the symptoms of enteritis?
Enteritis is generally divided into chronic enteritis and acute enteritis. Acute enteritis usually has severe symptoms and develops rapidly. Common symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and fever. In the case of chronic enteritis, symptoms can include mucous stools, bloody pus stools, and abdominal pain, as well as nausea and vomiting. Therefore, during acute enteritis, symptomatic treatment using anti-inflammatory drugs generally cures it within about three days. However, the treatment for chronic enteritis differs from that of acute enteritis since it involves a sterile inflammation, and anti-inflammatory drugs are generally not required outside the acute phase. So, when you are diagnosed with acute enteritis, do not worry; it can usually be quickly cured with some anti-inflammatory medication.
Can fatty liver be contagious?
Fatty liver has many causes, the most common being obesity, as well as alcohol; long-term excessive drinking can cause alcoholic fatty liver. Other causes include malnutrition or long-term excessive use of certain medications, including anti-inflammatory drugs and corticosteroids, which can significantly damage the liver. Drugs used to lower blood lipids can also lead to fatty liver. Fatty liver is caused by these factors, not by an infection from a particular bacterium or virus, so it is not contagious. If you have fatty liver, it is recommended to exercise regularly under the guidance of a doctor. There are no shortcuts; only exercise can eliminate fatty liver.
