What should be particularly noted for esophageal injuries?

After esophageal injury, patients should pay special attention to the following points: 1. **Dietary habits**: Avoid eating spicy, sweet, hard, cold, or greasy irritating foods, especially those that are overly hard or hot, to prevent secondary damage to the esophagus. Patients should focus on bland liquid foods and gradually transition to semi-liquid and regular diets. 2. **Lifestyle**: Maintain a regular lifestyle, avoid staying up late, eat meals regularly, and avoid overeating. Quit smoking and drinking alcohol to reduce the risk of esophageal injury. 3. **Exercise and rest**: Exercise should be moderate and not overly strenuous, to avoid discomfort caused by intense physical activity. At the same time, ensure adequate rest to promote wound healing. 4. **Medication and surgery**: According to the doctor's advice, patients may need to take medications that inhibit gastric acid secretion and protect the esophageal mucosa. In cases of severe injury, endoscopic or surgical treatment may be required.
