Introduction: Obesity, physical inactivity, and a diet high in protein and fat are all factors associated with developing bowel cancer. Colorectal cancer OR hemorrhoids? Constipation? Stool irregularities …… health concerns please start from the attention of the poop. Good stool or bad stool In the process of food digestion and absorption, the nutrients we consume are firstly digested and broken down, and the good stuff is absorbed in the stomach and small intestine, while the residuals with little nutrition, larger structure, and those that the body can’t accept arrive at the large intestine and become the contents of the stool. Normal stool has nothing to do with color, but with frequency and shape. Once or twice a day, the stool is formed, the color is usually yellowish green, a little yellowish, a little darker is normal good stool. Also look for bleeding and mucus. Thin stools are caused by a high protein, high fat, and relatively fine diet. The intake of fiber is relatively small, so it is easy to be unshaped, and it can not be said that thin stools are not normal. What kind of stools should I go to the hospital for? First of all, the number of stools is abnormal, originally one to two, suddenly the number of changes, five to six times, or even more, and not necessarily diarrhea, may be the feeling of each time to pull a little, not clean, and then want to pull. Secondly, there is a change in the character of the stool, which was very well formed, and then very thin and unformed. Thirdly, see if there is a combination of blood and mucus, mucus is something like snot, often on the surface of the stool, mucus means that there is a problem with the stool; if there is blood, it may be the upper and lower parts of the intestinal tract, or anal bleeding. The feeling of not being able to poop cleanly is also something we need to be aware of. These conditions generally require prompt medical attention, and should not be dismissed as painless. If you visit the doctor, we recommend that you first go to the general surgery department of a general hospital, preferably the anorectal department to register. After examination, what is suspected, and then symptomatic treatment. If it is really serious, we suggest going to the oncology department of the hospital for further examination to confirm the diagnosis. When is the best time to have a bowel movement? It used to be said that most people get up in the morning to have a bowel movement, but now it seems not to be absolute. We believe that a regular bowel movement is sufficient, and it does not necessarily have to be in the morning or at night. There is no absolute time requirement for the length of the bowel movement. A normal diet produces a normal bowel movement that is not too long. Due to the more refined diet nowadays, the amount of stool is very small, so some people always have the feeling of not being able to poop cleanly, and the amount is not much. What should I do if I am bothered by my bowel movements? If the stool is not normal, a need to regulate through diet, can not eat too fine, need to eat more crude fiber food, such as vegetables and fruits, coarse grains, etc.; in addition to the need to supplement with exercise, because people in the movement, the intestinal tract will also increase the movement; the third to supplement the intestinal probiotic bacteria, you can eat a little bit of yogurt every day, usually a day a can. How to find out the signs of bowel cancer? In the early stage of tumor, most people have no symptoms, no pain, no itch, no discomfort, but clinically, if it is really diagnosed as a tumor, most of them are in the middle or late stage. This puts high demands on people’s own health management. First of all, we should pay attention to self-examination, for example, if we find something abnormal in our stool, we need to consult the doctor in time. More importantly, we need to be able to do early screening. If you have a family history of tumors, then you should have a colonoscopy straight away by the age of 50, once every five years, or usually once every two to three years if there is a family history of bowel cancer. If someone in your family has bowel cancer that develops in their 50s, then you should have a colonoscopy at least as early as 40, which means you need to have a colonoscopy ten years earlier than the youngest patient in your family. Constipation increases the likelihood of bowel cancer Spherical stools are often caused by constipation. So why do you get constipated? ① Because the diet is relatively fine, the intestinal movement is inhibited, and the stool is peristaltic down by the intestinal pressure reflex; ② Because the nerves innervating the intestines are poor; ③ Because of the lack of exercise. At present, the probability of constipation among women aged 40 to 50 is 20% to 30%. Constipation increases the probability of bowel cancer. The most direct effect of constipation on the body is the absorption of toxins. The body’s metabolites are many chemical, toxin substances, gastrointestinal not peristalsis, not through the stool excretion, if they are absorbed by the body through the blood. In the long run, kidney function and liver function will be damaged. The general treatment principle of constipation is to try to exercise, try to eat more vegetables, high-fiber things, and develop good bowel habits. At the same time, if necessary, use some drugs to promote defecation, such as drinking some paraffin oil or anus with a bit of Keserol, etc., to promote intestinal contents to increase peristalsis. Need to emphasize is that the treatment of constipation do not use a single method, any method has been used, and finally useless. If you use several methods, it is best to use this method for three months, that method for two months, several methods back and forth will be better. If you keep on using one method, the result will not be good. Hemorrhoids and bowel cancer are not related Hemorrhoids are actually bulbous vasodilatation of the mucous membrane bulge formed by the congestion and expansion of blood vessels in the anus. It is true that many people have hemorrhoids, but it is not directly related to tumors, although many tumors are easily misdiagnosed as hemorrhoids. How to tell? Need to go to the examination. Not that uncomfortable, can not pull out, a little pain in the anus, a little bleeding, is hemorrhoids, but to go to the anorectal department to check is hemorrhoids and then go to standardized treatment. Generally speaking, if the bowel discomfort lasts for more than a week or two, or the symptoms are obvious, bleeding a lot should go to the hospital, the examination should be as early as possible. Our intestinal wall is like a wall, in repeated scrubbing and collision, it may be broken and broken somewhere, and then it keeps growing, firstly it is hyperplasia, and then it becomes benign adenoma, and then it gradually develops into malignant tumor. Most bowel cancers develop from a variety of pre-cancerous lesions (polyps, especially adenomatous polyps and atypical hyperplasia), and it usually takes five to ten years to go from normal to adenomatous hyperplasia to cancer. If adenomas can be detected and treated at this stage, there will be no tumor. Cure bowel cancer need to break the misunderstanding Suffering from bowel cancer after regular treatment after another five years of opportunity to live can now reach about 50%, and if you can live to five years basically 95% of the population will have no problem. The most important thing for bowel cancer is to have early treatment after early screening. If you suspect that you have a tumor, it is best to go to a regular hospital for specialized treatment, and it is a misunderstanding to go back and forth to many hospitals. As long as you choose a regular specialized hospital, the treatment level is high, the standardization is high, and the survival rate is high. Tumor treatment has only one chance, the first time the program is right, the patient gets the best and biggest chance of survival. Many bowel cancer patients hope to have an operation and it is better not to have radiotherapy or chemotherapy, which is also a misunderstanding. While an operation for bowel cancer is certainly the most important, radiotherapy and chemotherapy also have clear adjuvant value. How do I care for a family member with bowel cancer? If surgery or chemotherapy and radiotherapy are over, this time the diet can be like normal people, and there is no need to strengthen the nutrition; in addition, we should pay attention to exercise and mood, because the mood is bad, the neuroendocrine function is poor, and surely the immunity of the base body is poor. Normal people 2 two meat per day is enough In general, the daily meat intake of about 100 grams can be, about not more than two pieces of red meat, in addition to adding an egg, milk, fish and shrimp, etc., the general total of meat is not more than 150 grams or so. All kinds of things to steam is the most healthy, smoke, smoke, fried are bad. But smoke, smoked, fried things taste better, so some people say I often eat no problem, but in general, has been proved to increase the chance of disease. Many of us now do not eat staple food or eat very little is not scientific, staple food category generally need to be in the 250 grams or so, many people lose weight to choose not to eat staple food, this is even worse.
