Symptoms of disease - violation of suction

Impaired absorption (malabsorption) (also known under the name of «intolerance») - is a condition in which the body is not able to split and (or) suck sugar, proteins or fats.

The primary violation of absorption is observed at birth as a specific defect normal absorption, although the symptoms may develop later, during infancy.

Secondary violation of suction develops in cases of damage disease places generation of enzymes in the intestine, pancreas or liver, which leads to the formation of enzymes is not happening. The primary violation of suction is a lifelong condition; secondary violation of suction usually disappears after the healing of the damaged organ.

Which diseases there is violation of suction

In childhood the most common forms of malabsorption are lactose intolerance (sugar, located in the milk) and sucrose (sugar, located in the fruits and vegetables). In addition, the violation of suction can be one of the manifestations of certain diseases and infections.

Another reason for the violation of suction serve as a parasitic infection. Lamblia Giardia Giardia - the parasite that causes the disease called giardiasis (giardiasis). The disease is easily transmitted through contact with the feces containing parasites. This usually happens in families and communities (such as school), where children are in close contact with the carriers of parasites. The exact mechanism of influence of giardiasis on the absorption of food in the intestine is not known. However, a number of medical experts considers that this mechanism involves changing the structure of the mucous membranes of the intestines, competition lamblia with the intestines for food, irritation of the rectum and a violation of the functions of the intestine.

Impaired absorption of sugars

Lactose intolerance occurs when the reduction or complete absence in the intestines of lactase (the enzyme that destroys lactose). Genetic lactose intolerance is very common, but by the age of 3-5 years, the concentrations of the enzyme lactase is reduced in about 75% of the world's children. The exceptions are the children of Northern Europe, they have lactose intolerance due to genetic predisposition may remain after 5 years. Secondary intolerance is usually a result of diseases such as gastroenteritis (infection of the gastrointestinal tract), enterocolitis (severe inflammation of the mucous membrane of intestine) and cystic disease (cystic fibrosis).

Intolerance of sucrose is the most common form of primary weakening of absorption in the intestine and the result of lack of the enzyme sucrose. However, symptoms do not appear until such time (usually a few months after birth), while in the diet will not be introduced products that contain sucrose. The same diseases that cause secondary lactose intolerance, also cause secondary intolerance of sucrose; often both intolerance are present at the same time.

The violation of absorption of proteins

It is a disorder that prevents the splitting of wheat or rye protein in the intestine. This disorder may be inherited, but the mechanism of its transmission is unknown. As these proteins cannot be allocated, the sick children suffer from symptoms of weakening of the absorption of proteins.

Impaired absorption of fat

Impaired absorption of fats is often a component of diseases, which cause the increase of the level of the enzymes that break down fats, which damaged tissue. Not so often impaired absorption of fats is observed from the moment of birth in connection with an inherited lack of fat enzymes. Impaired absorption of fat is usually due to one of the following lesions of the pancreas or liver.

- Cystic fibrosis. Hereditary incurable disease, which not only is a violation of absorption, but also violates the respiration and digestion, affecting the lungs, pancreas and sometimes the liver of the child.

- Pancreatic insufficiency. Lack of enzymes that break down fats and proteins, often combined with cystic disease, but also occurs together with insufficient food and inflammation of the pancreas.

- Inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis). The process, which was observed in severe childhood illnesses, including pig (mumps) and mononucleosis, also may develop with a damaged pancreas blow in the stomach with a blunt object. In both cases, the levels of fat enzymes increase and cause damage to the tissues of the pancreas. If the tissue is damaged heavily, the violation of suction of fat can cause sudden disorder of the body.

- Disorders of the liver. These conditions can cause impaired absorption of fats and sugars. The most common disorders of the liver, causing the violation of suction of fat, are cystic fibrosis, hepatitis (inflammation of the liver), biliary atresia (heavy defect that is present at birth, in the network of the small tubes that carry bile in the liver and out of it) and cirrhosis (progressive destruction of the liver tissue). In addition, the violation of suction sugars can be observed in such linked with liver disorders, as galactosemia (inability to split the natural sugar galactose), fructosemia (inability to split fructose, a natural sugar) and disease accumulation of glycogen (defined by the absence of the enzyme that is necessary for the metabolism of glycogen, one of the forms of the storage of sugar in the liver).

The gravity of the breach of absorption varies depending on the size of the enzymatic failure and the severity of damage to the body. Wooden SPA Solutions: Wooden Hot Tub, Baths, Barrel Saunas and BBQ grill supplier in UK: www.woodenspasolutions.co.uk Many children with enzymatic deficiency can tolerate small amounts of food for digestion that require these enzymes, without the appearance of symptoms of weakening of suction. For example, in children with lactose intolerance often do not develop symptoms until then, until they start to drink more than one glass of milk a day. With the proper treatment and the maintenance of diet in children suffering from lactose intolerance, and intolerance of sucrose or child SRPU, do not appear symptoms of malabsorption. Infection by parasites completely passes with effective treatment. Prospects for children with cystic disease, liver disease and disorders of the pancreas are determined by the effectiveness of treatment and progression of the disease.

Symptoms of malabsorption develops within 8 hours after reception of the corresponding food, and continue from 1-2 days to several weeks. Stools are loose, watery and unappetizing. Usually there is diarrhea, abdominal pain and bloating. There may also be gases in the intestines, gurgling, nausea, vomiting, and constipation. In severe cases, a stop of growth of the child.

Which doctor should I contact if there is a violation of suction

• Gastroenterologist

Are you experiencing violation of suction? You want to know more detailed information, or you need an inspection? Please sign up on reception to the doctor!
