Hebei News Network (Reporter Li Shuli's correspondent Liu Shuli) A citizen of the port city has caused anaphylactic shock due to eating seafood at the wedding. It was almost fatal. Fortunately, the hospital was promptly rescued. To this end, medical experts reminded the public that with the improvement of people’s living standards, seafood such as crabs, prawns, and sea cucumbers often appear on people’s dining tables. Although seafood is delicious but susceptible to sensitization, allergies are advised to eat as much as possible.

At noon on October 28, the citizen, Mr. Wang, had just joined the family's wedding and suddenly felt itchy and breathing hard. A shot of an anti-allergic drug was taken at a clinic in the vicinity and no obvious improvement was seen. Immediately, the family dialed the 120 emergency phone.

At 3 pm, when Mr. Wang was sent to the emergency department of the First Hospital of Qinhuangdao City, his skin was flushed and his breathing was difficult. At this time, the nurse could not measure his blood pressure. The on-duty medical staff learned that the onset was because he had just eaten a sea cucumber rice at the wedding party. Mr. Wang believes that although he is allergic to fish, shrimp, and crabs, he is not allergic to sea cucumbers and he has not withstood delicious tastings. After active rescue, 30 minutes later, the patient's condition gradually stabilized. After hospital observation, he has been discharged safely.

Zhang Xinyu, an emergency doctor at the First Hospital of Qinhuangdao City, said: If anaphylactic shock is not dealt with in time, it can often endanger life. Insect stabs and taking certain medicines (especially those containing penicillin) are the most common causes of anaphylactic shock. Certain foods such as seafood, eggs, and milk can also cause severe allergic reactions.
