Take another look! Eat every day and defecate every day. In order to control your health, after every defecation, you must remember to turn your head and look at the poop in the toilet, what color and shape it is, and especially whether there is bleeding. The Internet said, "As long as the stool is bloody and slender as a pencil, it means you have colorectal cancer." Is it true?/You don't say. Chinese medicine teaches you to crack the law of stool and standardize the use of Chinese medicine.
TCM recuperates physique first: let patients defecate smoothly.
Zhou, an attending physician of Chinese medicine at Renai Hospital of Taipei United Hospital, said that in the outpatient clinic, I will definitely ask an embarrassing question, regardless of boys and girls, and that is, "How is your defecation?" Is it big every day? What shape? Will it stink? The patient who sees a doctor for the first time must have a bunch of question marks, probably thinking, "I just come to see the physical problem. Why do you always ask me questions about defecation?" 」
In fact, defecation can clearly see the patient's current physique and physical condition, whether it is skin, nerves or gynecology. As long as the defecation is blocked, the blood circulation of the body will not be smooth, so conditioning the constitution must first make the patient defecate smoothly.
Normal stools are slightly smelly, sour and burnt, which may lead to indigestion.
Chinese medicine also has the so-called "knowing the disease by looking at it". Most healthy stools are banana-shaped, soft and do not stick to the toilet. They are yellow or yellowish brown in color, can float on the water, and are clean after washing. It is normal to have mushy stools that are not dried into lumps and have a slight smell. Due to the smell of feces produced by bacterial decomposition, normal feces are slightly smelly, and people who love meat will have a heavier smell, while vegetarians have a lighter taste. If the smell is unbearable, there may be health problems. The pungent sour taste and burning smell may be caused by indigestion; The smell of blood may mean gastrointestinal bleeding, or women are in physiological period.
The food you eat will definitely affect defecation. Chinese doctor Zhou said that once a patient was treated for defecation, the whole toilet was red. He was scared to death and went to see a doctor. I asked him directly, "Have you ever eaten pitaya?" He said that he bought a box recently, so he told him, "Then you don't have to worry, because the stool I discharged from eating cuttlefish noodles is also black." Only then did the patient suddenly realize that he was happy to go home.
The defecation is bloodshot and shaped, which may be simple hemorrhoids.
Indeed, once there is blood in defecation, it is often worrying. In fact, if the defecation is bloodshot and has a shape, it is likely to be caused by simple hemorrhoids, but is it possible that it is colorectal cancer? Or colorectal polyps? Usually, the patient's defecation is deformed and mixed with bloodshot. Usually, I often have slight abdominal pain, abnormal defecation and delicate feces, so I would suggest referring to rectal surgery for further examination.

Is colorectal cancer bound to bleed? TCM: Not necessarily.
Re-discussion on "Will colorectal cancer bleed?" In fact, it is not necessarily true that when the tumor appears in the ascending colon or transverse colon, bleeding will be mixed with fecal fluid (the product that has just been digested and absorbed from the small intestine and entered the large intestine). Therefore, when the stool is finally formed, it is usually undetectable, and it must be detected by fecal occult blood examination.
When the tumor appears in the descending colon, blood can't be fully mixed with feces, so you may see blood in the toilet, or there is bloodshot on the toilet paper wiped with * * * *, usually the color of blood is dim, or there is some mucus, and the stomach often has abdominal distension and colic, and the frequency and severity will gradually increase. Patients often feel tired and weak for a long time. At this time, colonoscopy is recommended. If there are polyps or tumors, surgical resection is the most direct and effective method.
Traditional Chinese medicine nursed back to health is to prevent colorectal polyps and tumor recurrence. This kind of patients usually have poor gastrointestinal motility, which is caused by exogenous pathogens (indiscriminate eating). From the aspect of TCM recuperation, TCM often gives patients Chinese medicines for invigorating spleen and regulating qi, such as Radix Codonopsis, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Poria, Rhizoma Dioscoreae, Radix Aucklandiae and other Chinese medicines for improving gastrointestinal immunity.
If the stool is like small particles of sheep manure, it generally belongs to the stomach, which is also a constitution that is easy to grow polyps. Chinese medicine often uses asparagus, Ophiopogon japonicus, Adenophora adenophora, Dendrobium and Radix Rehmanniae for conditioning. If the stool is easy to stick to the toilet, or it is a liquid like water, it means that the stomach is wet and turbid. Drugs such as Smilax China, Pogostemon, Eupatorium odoratum and Coicis Semen are often used to improve the intestinal environment.

Chinese medicine doctor is small:
Most people's lives are tense, because the large intestine and small intestine have to peristalsis at any time, and tension will make peristalsis abnormal. Therefore, in order to relieve constipation, we must know how to rest and relax, and relax appropriately to regulate qi activity through breathing.
In addition, don't be partial to food, eat more vegetables and add more water. Clinically, it is found that diabetes, three highs and metabolic syndrome are positively correlated with colorectal cancer. Therefore, if you have chronic diseases, you must control more at ordinary times.
