Tilapia can not only be used as food, but also be a good medical helper. At the burn treatment center in Fortaleza, Brazil, medical staff pushed a man with more than 60% body burns. The 23-year-old man suffered severe burns on his body, face and chest in a fire, which was more serious than the initial black menstruation. This man not only has no circulatory ability, but also can't afford the high cost of skin replacement surgery because of poverty. However, the local experts did not give up on him, and found another way, and adopted a brand-new treatment scheme for him, that is, the treated tilapia skin with black and white scaly wrinkles was applied to the cleaned wound. This arm wrapped in tilapia skin has the same effect as the unicorn arm. After bed rest 12 days, the wrapped tilapia skin hardened and fell off from the wound. Surprisingly, all the people and men present began to have regenerated skin tissue.

Wrapping the wound with tilapia, a seemingly anti-human medical practice, was actually put forward several years ago. According to relevant data, at least 654.38+0.8 billion people die of burns every year in the world, but those who survive the fire suffer from skin ulceration every day. As a result, doctors have developed many ways to regenerate skin, such as skin in another part. Although the probability of this method is low, the high medical expenses make many families unable to afford it, and they have begun to use other animal skins instead, including pig skins. The storage method of pigskin is troublesome, and it is impossible to kill pigskin on the spot when necessary, so pigskin has many limitations.

Later, experts found that the skin of tilapia is humid and rich in collagen similar to protein, which can interact with the immune system of burn patients and accelerate wound healing. The most important thing is tilapia, a kind of fish that can be seen everywhere. Its price is global and even ordinary families can afford it. Isn't this the second-generation parents of burn patients? Therefore, the method of treating burns with tilapia skin is popular in Brazil. However, it is worth noting that tilapia can only treat minor burns, and tilapia skin is not recommended for more serious burns, and this treatment will leave some scales on the wound.

Nowadays, as an exotic species in China, tilapia has never been in a strange environment. It flooded rivers in China and invaded various fresh water areas in China. Tilapia, on the other hand, has become garbage, and its meat quality is intentional, so it will hardly be used actively. Can tilapia, which is rampant in China, also be used to treat burns? At present, there is no resume of treating burns with tilapia skin, because this technology is not perfect. The function of tilapia skin prayer is mainly to use fine rot, but the fish skin can't absorb a lot of liquid. For deep wounds and infected wounds, tilapia skin will become a bacterial Petri dish, which may cause family infection, so it will be carefully considered before the technology is perfected, but after in-depth research by experts, there may be a better breakthrough in the future.
