Everyone must know this, who loves to collect mushrooms in the autumn and eat them.
Without exception, all mushrooms have long been digested in the gastrointestinal tract, so doctors do not recommend the use of their children, lactating and pregnant women and the elderly. But there is another reason for the ban on mushrooms is the possible content of poisons that can lead to death.
Of course, not all poisonous mushrooms and most of them are designed for human consumption, although we should not forget that some edible mushrooms have poisonous counterparts. So gather mushrooms in the forest to those who really understand them and can distinguish pale toadstool from an edible mushroom Russula or.
Symptoms of mushroom poisoning can appear within an hour or two after the mushrooms were eaten, and can continue to grow with each passing day, depending on how poisonous was the mushroom dish, and in what condition was the human liver.
These signs in your physical condition should alert you if you first ate mushrooms:
– nausea and vomiting;
– slow pulse;
– cramping pain in the abdomen;
– increase in body temperature;
– diarrhea;
– numbness and coldness of the extremities;
– headache and dizziness;
– dry mouth and difficulty swallowing;
– convulsions;
hallucinations, delirium, clouding of consciousness.
Even if you have one of these symptoms after consuming mushrooms, you should immediately call an ambulance and inform us about your concerns and what mushrooms you ate.
How to help yourself in mushroom poisoning to the ambulance:
1. To stay in bed.
2. Drink more water to cleanse the digestive system. Nothing there at all.
3. Doctors are allowed to take activated charcoal, it has the property of absorbing and removes toxins from the body. Other medications doctors advise not to drink because the symptoms of poisoning can be “lubricated” and the doctors will be more difficult to establish the diagnosis and prescribe treatment.
4. Don’t panic if timely to call an ambulance, the person may hope for recovery the next day after admission to the hospital.
Go to the woods for mushrooms only with experienced mushroom pickers who collect gifts of autumn all my life and know all about them. Also, doctors recommend not to buy mushrooms at spontaneous markets, even if they are similar to edible. Be careful and cautious.
