Ever wondered about the stool coming out of the abdominal wall, bladder, or vagina? In gastroenterology there is such a number one strange disease – Crohn’s disease. Once you have this disease, somewhere in the intestinal wall becomes inflamed and eroded, forming a cleft groove and a fistula. Eventually the stool penetrates the intestinal wall and leaks outward from the inside. Gastroenterologists said that this disease is no longer rare in the country since 2007, and the number of incidences is increasing year by year, reminding medical personnel and people with suspected symptoms to pay attention to this disease so as not to delay treatment. Anal muscle necrosis helpless to “stoma” Miss Wong from Hong Kong, only 32 years old, suffering from Crohn’s disease has a ten-year history, when the school was often abdominal pain, later diagnosed as “Crohn’s disease”. After suffering from this disease, Ms. Wong was unable to control the exhaustion and defecation, which greatly affected her social life, and has been a loner, not yet married. As the disease progressed, Ms. Huang’s sphincter was swallowed up, the entire anus was rotten, and doctors had to make her an artificial anus in the lower abdomen, namely a stoma. Hanging all day “shit bag”, which further aggravated her psychological shadow, the whole person seems very depressed and pessimistic. According to the reporter, the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Treatment Center of the Sixth Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University has treated 400-500 such patients so far. To the general public, this is a very strange disease. The disease was only discovered by foreigner Crohn’s in 1932, so it was officially named “Crohn’s disease” in 1973. The disease only manifests itself as abdominal pain and diarrhea in the early stages, but when it becomes severe, intestinal obstruction, intestinal perforation, abdominal abscess and fistula formation can occur. For some patients, the inflammation also erodes the abdominal wall and pelvic floor muscles, and stools may even spill out of the abdominal wall and vagina. Difficulty in confirming the diagnosis and a very high rate of clinical misdiagnosis In recent years, the incidence of Crohn’s disease in China has been on a significant rise. Lan Ping said, in foreign countries, this disease is a relatively common intestinal disease, the incidence rate of six in 100,000, while China is about two in 100,000, so that every year, China will add 10,000 cases. Crohn’s disease initially develops in the digestive tract and often has similarities to other intestinal diseases. However, Lamping said that Crohn’s disease can differ in some small details, such as vague pain around the right lower abdomen or belly button, more frequent bowel movements, and also abdominal masses and intestinal obstruction. However, because of the many clinical manifestations of Crohn’s disease, the misdiagnosis rate is high in clinical practice. It is sometimes misdiagnosed as appendicitis, intestinal polyps, etc. Xiao Li was found to have “Crohn’s disease” only after surgery for perianal abscess. As early as March 2010, Xiao Li was hospitalized and operated for perianal abscess, and the wound kept growing badly after discharge, so he had to be opened again. A few days later there was frequent diarrhea, when the weight was only about 90 pounds, and then the condition was gradually controlled and the wound became smaller, but it was abdominal pain, once or twice a day. The doctor suspected Crohn’s disease, so on September 4, a colonoscopy was done, and the colonoscopy revealed that there were jumping cobblestone-like irregular mucosal elevations in the intestines, with a surface erosion and bleeding when touched. At this point, Xiao Li was finally diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. ”This is mainly because there is no gold standard for the diagnosis of Crohn’s disease, and in most clinical settings, other diseases are ruled out first, and then a diagnosis can be made only after a comprehensive analysis of stool culture, endoscopy, tissue biopsy and other ancillary tests.” Lan Ping said, “Many doctors do not understand this disease, so Crohn’s disease in the clinical situation does have the problem of easy to be misdiagnosed exist.” Fresh fruits and vegetables can prevent intestinal disease About the particular cause of Crohn’s disease, some people think it is a virus, some think it is bacteria, but ultimately experts have not been able to uncover the culprit. The prevailing view is that this strange disease may be the result of a combination of factors, such as genetics, immune system disorders, diet, etc. According to Professor Lamping, the disease is more common in the West, where its incidence is about six times higher than in China, and people with a family history of the disease have a higher rate than others, who often prefer foods that contain a lot of sugar and synthetic fats in their diet, but only eat small amounts of fruits and vegetables, etc. Therefore, to prevent it, you may pay special attention to your diet, and it is good to eat vegetarian occasionally. In clinical practice, most patients are young people aged 20-35. To prevent Crohn’s disease, a westernized lifestyle should be reduced from an early age, such as eating less high-calorie, high-protein foods. Do not smoke (including passive smoking) and eat less overly fried foods. In the city, try to resume a simple lifestyle, develop a good life and work routine, and reduce anxiety. It is best to enjoy a natural, peaceful life, and these have the potential to reduce the chances of developing Crohn’s disease.
