The skin and mucous membranes of the whole body show varying degrees of blue-purple

Introduction

Introduction The skin and mucous membranes of the whole body exhibit different degrees of blue-purple, which is one of the clinical manifestations of intestinal purpura. It is the symptom of nitrite poisoning. Nitrite poisoning is caused by the ingestion of plants containing more nitrites, such as pickled vegetables or stale vegetables, or the accidental use of industrial sodium nitrite as salt. It can also be seen in drinking nitrate or nitrous acid. After salt and well water, nitrite can oxidize normal oxygen-carrying methemoglobin in the blood into methemoglobin, thus losing oxygen carrying capacity and causing tissue hypoxia. Clinically prominent manifestations of skin and mucous membrane cyanosis and other symptoms of hypoxia. Because the occurrence of purpura is related to the intestines, it is also known as intestinal purpura.

The causes of acute poisoning are:

3. Poisoning.

Chronic poisoning (including cancer) is mostly caused by:

1. Drink bitter well water and steamer water with high nitrate or nitrite content.

2. Eat salted meat products, kimchi and spoiled vegetables with high nitrate or nitrite content.

1. Quantitative test of methemoglobin in blood and quantitative test of nitrite in remaining food.

Diagnosis

Differential diagnosis

Skin and mucous pigmentation spots: Skin and mucous membrane spots are a symptom of multiple gastrointestinal polyp syndrome. Generalized Gastrointestial Polyposis Syndrome refers to the occurrence of multiple polyps in the digestive tract (for young metaplastic or inflammatory polyps), ectodermal abnormalities and severe intermittent A group of syndromes of gastrointestinal and neurological symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, and numbness of limbs.

It should not be judged solely from the depth of color.

Skin pigmentation is bronze: Loss of salt nephritis has typical clinical manifestations: polyuria and nocturia, skin pigmentation is bronze, etc., salt-losing nephritis, also known as Thorn syndrome, is currently considered to be a group of severe kidneys. Sexual loss of salt is a special type of certain kidney disease characterized by sex.
