How long does it take to cure mumps?

After getting mumps, some of the foods we usually eat will become difficult to digest, and we will feel bloated and uncomfortable in our stomachs all day long. Although taking some digestive medicines can provide some relief, it cannot cure the disease. This is closely related to some of our bad eating habits. So how long will it take to cure mumps?

1. Don’t drink alcohol or coffee before meals

Some people like to drink before meals, but this habit is actually very bad. Drinking on an empty stomach can cause great damage to the gastric mucosa. If you drink iced beer before meals, the temperature in the gastrointestinal tract will drop suddenly, blood vessels will shrink rapidly, blood flow will decrease, and the body's physiological functions will be disturbed, affecting normal meals and food digestion and absorption; at the same time, it can also reduce the secretion of gastric acid, pepsin, small intestinal amylase, and lipase in the human body, causing digestive disorders; the gastrointestinal tract is stimulated by excessive cold, and the peristalsis becomes faster and the movement is disordered. Over time, it is easy to induce abdominal pain, diarrhea, and nutritional deficiencies.

2. Do not smoke or take irritating drugs before meals

Some people think that smoking before meals is more comfortable, but they don't know that this habit brings great harm. Smoking before meals is not only bad for the lungs, but also bad for the stomach, because smoking will cause the gastric mucosa to contract and secrete too much gastric acid, which has a certain damaging effect on the gastric mucosa. After people get sick, they must take medicine to recover faster. However, some drugs that irritate or damage the gastric mucosa are best taken after meals, such as aspirin, painkillers and other antipyretic analgesics. Taking them after meals can not only reduce the toxic effects of the drugs, but also improve the efficacy.

Therefore, we must pay attention to eating and drinking what we should eat and drink before eating. We cannot treat it with an indifferent attitude. If we continue like this, there will be big problems. Health is no small matter. We must implement this healthy eating habit in every meal, especially before meals. Take these measures seriously and face every day of life in a healthy way.
