Are cecal polyps serious?

The appendix is ​​very prone to inflammation. If not treated in time, it will cause appendicitis polyps. Polyps exist in the intestines and will inhibit the secretion of hormones. Because of the presence of polyps, most of the nutrients will be lost, the body will become weaker and weaker, and will gradually become thinner. It must be removed in time. If it exists in the body for a long time, the cells may become cancerous and the situation will become more serious. Let me give you a detailed introduction below.

To put it simply, a polyp is just an extra piece of tissue. It has no function and is not harmful. However, because it grows in the intestine, it is exposed to long-term friction from feces and corrosion from intestinal fluid, which may lead to cancer and transform into cancerous tissue. Therefore, it is best to just remove it to save trouble.

The appendix is ​​an immune organ in the body. Due to its location, it is susceptible to infection and difficult to cure. It can easily cause large-area infection in the abdomen, so it is usually removed directly, and there will be no adverse effects after removal.

Polyp refers to the growths on the surface of human tissue. Modern medicine usually refers to the growths growing on the surface of human mucosa as polyps, including hyperplastic, inflammatory, hamartoma, adenoma and other tumors. Polyps are a type of benign tumor. The most common clinical manifestations are inflammatory polyps, adenomatous polyps and certain gastrointestinal polyposis syndromes. Although these lesions are benign, some of them have a tendency to become malignant. Cysts that grow under the skin, lipomas in adipose tissue, myomas in muscles, etc. can also cause bulges on the body surface, but they are not classified as polyps. In medicine, it is usually named according to the location where it appears. For example, those that grow on the vocal cords are called "vocal cord polyps", those that appear on the stomach wall are called "gastric polyps", those in the intestinal cavity are called "intestinal polyps", and so on. If there are more than two polyps in a certain part, it is also called "multiple polyps".

Including dietary stimulation, mechanical stimulation and inflammatory stimulation. Special stimulation caused by changes in eating habits and changes in the nature of stool; or stimulation from intestinal diseases such as dysentery, ulcerative colitis, schistosomiasis, enterobiasis, as well as chronic constipation, dry stool, etc., can all stimulate the rectal mucosa and cause the disease.
