How is galactosemia to return a responsibility?
summary
Galactosemia is a genetic metabolic defect of genotype. After the baby is born, it can't be decomposed into galactose by sucking the mother's milk. The baby can't absorb the nutrition, resulting in nutritional disorders, cataract, mental retardation, hepatosplenomegaly and other diseases. Galactosemia is a kind of congenital metabolic disease in infants, which belongs to the common chromosome recessive inheritance. If infants do not eat dairy products, the situation will be alleviated. When the infant has passed the lactation period, the infant can also grow normally. Now let's share with you about galactosemia? Experience in this area.
How is galactosemia to return a responsibility?
First: after the early diagnosis of galactosemia, parents can feed food without lactose and galactose, so that the baby can develop normally. If it is found late and the liver has been damaged, cataract and mental retardation will occur. Therefore, after the baby is born, parents should pay great attention to the child's physical condition.
Second: galactosemia is a common chromosomal recessive inheritance, which is rare in babies. Unless both parents carry pathogenic genes, it will be passed on to their children. Parents also need a comprehensive physical examination before they plan to get pregnant to ensure that the baby will not have genetic diseases after birth.
Third: milk powder generally contains lactose. Therefore, sick infants who eat these dairy foods will have vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms. In serious cases, they may have convulsions. If the infant can stop feeding breast milk, milk or milk powder early, the infant will not get sick or the existing symptoms will be improved quickly.
matters needing attention
If galactosemia occurs after the baby is born, parents must see a doctor in time, listen to the doctor's advice, feed the baby reasonably, change the baby's diet menu, try not to eat milk powder with lactose, and choose some complementary food to feed the baby with milk powder.
