As far as I know, a woman in her fifties suffered from hemorrhoids not long ago. Later, she inquired about a recipe, saying that eating centipede can cure hemorrhoids. Ms. Li did not consult a doctor. She ate more than ten centipedes in a row in two days, and then developed symptoms such as nausea, fatigue, and yellow urine. She was rushed to the Fourth Hospital of Harbin Medical University for treatment. Tests showed that Ms. Li's transaminase was more than 2,000 times higher than the normal value, and her coagulation function was severely damaged. She was diagnosed with acute liver failure. Many medical staff in the infectious disease department tried their best to rescue Ms. Li, but they still could not stop the progress of Ms. Li's condition. She soon developed hepatic encephalopathy, and then fell into a coma.

Among patients with unexplained transaminase elevations, many patients were finally diagnosed with drug-induced liver injury through detailed inquiries. A number of studies at home and abroad have shown that more than 20% of drug-induced liver damage is caused by traditional Chinese medicine. Among them, Polygonum multiflorum, Tusanqi, Tripterygium wilfordii, Bupleurum, etc. can cause liver damage when taken improperly. In addition to traditional Chinese medicine, some antipyretic and analgesic drugs, antibiotics, chemotherapy drugs, anti-tuberculosis drugs, lipid-lowering drugs, etc. can also easily cause liver damage.

At the same time, I would like to remind you that you must use it in a proper way, so as not to misuse it and die. For example, centipede wine can cure bruises. For the blood stasis and swelling and pain caused by falls, rubbing it with centipede wine can quickly reduce swelling and relieve pain. It also has good effects on poisonous sores and unknown swellings.

Centipede, also known as Tianlong, Centipede, Centipede, Wugong, Maggot, etc., is a kind of venomous glandular, predatory terrestrial arthropod. There are three common centipedes: red head, green head and black head. According to Materia Medica Yanyi: The centipede has black and green backlight, red feet, and yellow underbelly. Centipede and snake, scorpion, gecko, toad called Five Poisons.
