Previous treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment was administered. What kind of assistance is needed: Hello, how should it be treated? What should be paid attention to?Doctor's answer:
Lead is a multi-affinity toxicant, which, upon entering the body, causes adverse interference in multiple systems and induces various physiological changes in the body at subclinical diagnostic levels. It primarily disrupts the intellectual and physical development of children. 90% of lead is stored in the skeletal system, while the remaining is present in the blood. Lead toxicity is persistent, with a half-life of up to 10 years, and it is not easily excreted by the human body. As a result, the amount of lead in the human body can be five times higher than that in the environment. Moreover, lead industrial pollution has no threshold, and any level of pollution can adversely affect human health.
