If you are a rhinitis patient, special attention should be paid to enteritis. [사진=게티이미지뱅크]Although the heat has passed, we cannot slow down our awareness of enteritis even in the fall season. This is because enteritis can occur not only on hot days when bacteria are active, but also at any time if you have a weak immune system or have rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis is especially prevalent this time of year, and rhinitis patients need to take extra care.
According to 2022 statistics from the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service, the number of patients visiting hospitals with allergic rhinitis increased during the season change period from April to May, decreased in the summer, and then increased once more in September. What is the relationship between allergic rhinitis and enteritis?
Director Park Hee-wook of Sadang Yonsei Medical Center said, “8 to 9 out of 10 patients with enteritis often suffer from allergic rhinitis,” and “Patients with rhinitis generally have thinner stomach mucosa, so they are more sensitive to changes in the body.” The explanation is that their mucous membranes are not as strong as those without rhinitis, so there is a greater risk of contracting enteritis even if they eat the same food or are in the same environment.
Director Park said, “If the mucous membrane that makes up the body is thin, even if they eat the same food as others at weddings or funerals, they visit the hospital with enteritis.” “You can get caught,” he added.
Enteritis is largely classified into bacterial, viral, etc. depending on the causative agent. Bacterial enteritis, which is mainly caused by Vibrio bacteria and Salmonella bacteria, is prevalent in the summer, and norovirus, etc., is prevalent in the winter. Patients with enteritis complain that their stomach feels like it is being stabbed or twisted. In addition to abdominal pain, you may also experience high fever or vomiting.
To prevent enteritis, it is essential to wash your hands frequently under running water and cook your food thoroughly before eating. It is also recommended to manage knives, cutting boards, etc. to prevent cross-contamination. In particular, poultry such as chickens and ducks contain many Campylobacter bacteria that cause enteritis. When trimming teeth, it is best to use cooking utensils separately to avoid spreading germs to other ingredients or cooking utensils.
When purchasing a simple cooking set such as a meal kit, you must carefully examine the product. The Korea Consumer Agency recently analyzed products sold at 29 unmanned stores and found that food ingredients such as onions, mushrooms, and green onions were deteriorated. There were also products that were past their expiration date or contained bacteria that cause enteritis. When purchasing a product, it is recommended to check whether the color of the ingredients, packaging condition, and overall environment, such as the refrigerator or floor, are clean.
