Eosinophilic gastroenteritis can invade the gastrointestinal mucosa, leading to symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. If the disease is not effectively controlled over a prolonged period, it may result in anemia and weight loss. Symptoms worsen after consuming foods that trigger allergies, potentially causing ankle edema, urticaria, and skin itching. When the muscular layers of the gastrointestinal tract are involved, patients may experience cessation of anal排气 and defecation.
