ANO NGA BA DIVERTICULITIS? 💩💥

➖Ito ay pamamaga ng diverticulum o bulsa sa loob ng colon
➖ Pwedeng may mastuck na dumi sa loob ng bulsa ng colon at magdulot ng pamamaga o infection
➖Kadalasan ay mild lang ito at nagdudulot ng sakit sa left lower quadrant o kaliwang baba na bahagi ng tiyan
➖Kapag lumala (severe) ang DIVERTICULITIS ay pwede itong magdulot ng infection at magkaroon ng abscess o nana sa bulsa ng colon
➖Kailangan magpakonsulta sa doctor para maevaluate ng tama at mabigyan ng antibiotics ang taong may diverticulitis
➖Kadalasan ay pinagbobowel rest o hindi muna pinapakain ang mga may severe diverticulitis
➖Liquid diet naman ang pinapakain sa mga may mild diverticulitis

🥬🥒🥕Ugaliing mag high fiber diet at mag-gulay everyday para maiwasan ang pagkakaroon ng DIVERTICULOSIS! 🥦🥒🥕
