Do you get appendicitis after dinner?
As for not running after meals, it is estimated that everyone has heard of the disadvantages of many versions, of which the one with appendicitis is the most widely circulated.
Running after meals is really not a good habit in what, and the pot of appendicitis is buckled on the exercise after meals, there is no scientific basis. Looking through various authoritative surgical magazines or documents at home and abroad, there is no data supporting appendicitis caused by the exercise after meals.
This may be just a misunderstanding handed down by word of mouth, or it may be a beautiful lie made up long ago by a grandfather to frighten children not to run away after dinner…
Who is the real culprit causing appendicitis?
To catch the real culprit, first understand the background of the appendix. The appendix is a thin and long, only one end has an opening of the blind tube, the inner diameter of the appendix is only 2 ~ 3 mm, one end is open on the cecum, the other end is closed, so it is called blind tube.
Just because one end is closed, if fecal stones and swollen lymph nodes compress the appendix, it is easy to block the appendix, resulting in obstruction of the appendix cavity.
However, once the infarction occurs, it will be blocked on all sides, and the mucus produced continuously in the appendix cavity makes the pressure in the appendix cavity increase and increase, just like a balloon blowing into it continuously.
What will happen to the bigger and bigger balloons?
Bang…
However, the appendix is generally not like a balloon. When the pressure on the appendix is too high, It will hinder the blood supply to the appendix wall, Blood supply is cut off, appendix may appear various problems, plus appendix belongs to intestinal tract, itself has many bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, enterococcus, anaerobic streptococcus, etc., internal and external troubles, appendix is easy to be captured by bacteria, resulting in appendicitis. Inflammatory reaction, blood supply disorders further aggravate, if not handled in time will appear appendix gangrene, perforation outcome.
In addition to obstruction, appendicitis is also caused by gastrointestinal dysfunction, which causes visceral nerve to be too sensitive, leading to appendiceal muscle and vasospasm. Exceeding a certain period of time and intensity can also lead to appendiceal blood supply disorder, which leads to the onset process of bacterial infection.
Who has suffered from stomachache after exercise?
Not everyone will suffer from stomachache when exercising after meals.
Some people suffer from abdominal pain after the meal, which coincides with the exercise time after the meal. People mistakenly think that exercise causes pain, while others may aggravate the pain after the meal.
1. Dyspepsia
The cause of stomachache after meal exercise may be dyspepsia itself, or dyspepsia is easy to occur at ordinary times.
At ordinary times, after exercise, the basis of dyspepsia may lead to insufficient blood supply in the gastrointestinal tract, aggravating the symptoms of upper abdominal discomfort or abdominal pain. Digestion of food after meals requires more blood to be distributed to the digestive system, while exercise reduces the blood flow distributed to the gastrointestinal tract, which may induce or aggravate the symptoms of dyspepsia.
Stomachache caused by dyspepsia can be basically relieved after rest.
2. Irritable bowel
The typical symptom of irritable bowel is postprandial abdominal pain diarrhea for 1 ~ 2 times, and the pain site is mostly around the navel.
Due to the intensification of intestinal peristalsis after meals, the symptoms of irritable bowel and intestinal spasm are easy to occur after meals, which has little to do with whether they exercise or not.
3. Gastric ulcer
Gastric ulcer belongs to peptic ulcer. Due to the weak barrier of gastric mucosa, gastric acid erodes gastric mucosa and causes gastric ulcer.
The typical symptom is pain after eating. The pain is located in the middle and upper abdomen and relieved after a short period of time. The pain is related to the disease itself and eating, but not to exercise.
4. Biliary colic
If some small gallstones are stuck in the gallbladder neck or biliary tract, biliary colic may be caused by gallbladder contraction after eating.
Especially when eating greasy food, this is also a common cause of postprandial abdominal pain, which is generally located in the right upper abdomen.
5. Intestinal adhesion (postoperative)
After abdominal surgery, mild or severe intestinal adhesions will inevitably occur in the abdominal cavity. After some adhesions are formed, the peritoneum or viscera may be involved when food passes through, causing pain or discomfort. Postprandial exercise may aggravate this pain.
6. Intestinal volvulus
Such as sigmoid colon or small bowel volvulus, which is more serious and requires emergency surgery, but is rare.
How is appendicitis a painful method?
If appendicitis is noisy, it is not such a painful method.
Once organs or tissues become inflamed, congestion, redness and pain will occur, as will the appendix. The main symptom of appendicitis is abdominal pain.
Typical acute appendicitis has pain in the middle and upper abdomen or around the navel at the beginning, and the abdominal pain shifts and is fixed in the right lower abdomen several hours later. The pain in the early stage is actually a kind of visceral nerve reflex pain, so the pain range in the middle and upper abdomen and around the navel is relatively scattered, often cannot be accurately located, easily confused with stomachache, and often complicated with nausea and vomiting.
When appendicitis is further aggravated, the pain will be fixed in the right lower abdomen where the appendix is located. When the doctor presses a specific position, there will be obvious pain.
According to these pain characteristics, appendicitis can get rid of the blame for postprandial abdominal pain. In addition to the difference in pain, appendicitis will also have fever symptoms when it attacks, which is also a manifestation of postprandial abdominal pain.
