Symptom after esophagus cancer operation?

Diarrhea is a long-term complication of digestive tract structural changes. It is functional rather than bacterial enteritis, so antibiotics are harmful. Patients with diarrhea should first adjust the type of food, such as some people eat eggs or greasy easily induced, and then appropriate oral treatment, functional diarrhea drugs (such as Smecta), or digestive drugs.

When the anastomotic position of reflux esophagogastrostomy is high, reflux symptoms are easy to occur, because the cardia has been removed, and the mechanism of anti reflux is lost. When reflux occurs, patients should first adjust their eating habits, especially dinner, reduce the amount of liquid food and drinking water, take appropriate slow walking activities before going to bed, and then take drugs to increase gastric motility and inhibit gastric acid secretion.

The diameter of artificial esophagogastrostomy with dysphagia is usually 25 mm. Because there is no cardia after operation, the diameter of anastomotic stoma is too large, which will significantly increase gastric acid reflux. Moreover, the artificial anastomotic stoma also depends on scar healing, which is less elastic than normal esophagus, so mild dysphagia (eating wonton and dumplings smoothly) can not be treated. If only half liquid food can be used, it is necessary to make sure whether there is anastomotic stenosis. At this time, gastroscopy should be performed: on the one hand, tumor recurrence should be ruled out; on the other hand, expansion therapy should be estimated. General expansion 3 times, eating improved significantly. After each expansion, we should insist on eating hard food such as rice and steamed bread to maintain the results of expansion.

matters needing attention

The esophagus is the organ through which all food passes. Food forms a mass in the esophagus and enters the stomach in order for digestion. Eat slowly. Saliva is secreted by three kinds of glands. When it is fully mixed with food, it can promote digestion and hydrolyze starch or maltose; Dilute and dissolve food to enhance taste; Mucin can lubricate food and is easy to swallow; Neutralize toxic substances and kill bacteria. Swallowing can damage the esophagus. Don't eat overheated, hard and irritating food. Otherwise, oral, esophageal and gastric mucosa will be damaged. Irritant food also includes strong tea, strong coffee, liquor and so on. Pay attention to oral hygiene. Any oral lesions are adverse to digestion, if there is infection, it is easy to spread to the esophagus.
