Guest Post: Fight Against TCA with a Positive Attitude

Guest Post: Written by Sneha


Zenith is the reach for the Medical field in discovering new solutions to different diseases. But this has failed to bring out something for the new mom’s grief mainly in the case of Total Colonic Aganglionosis (TCA). TCA is generally occurred in the newborn and its occurrence is almost from 2% to 13%. The reasons for this are not clearly known until now. Many scientists are still on their way in finding out medicine. Toddlers who are found with this are generally operated on to remove their large intestine completely. But for this they should weigh at least five kilos. As a known fact, most babies with TCA will be underweight, so the doctors will perform another small surgery called Ileostomy. This is something very painful both for the mothers in taking care and for babies. Here, there will be no control in the motion and besides that most important aspect is that, Ileum (which come from the stomach) will eat the skin. This rash is something horrible and baby cries a lot every time as they pass motion.

Of course there are ointments, pastes, powders of many prestigious companies for this, but things won’t be completely in our control even though we can afford them. In other words, care of parents and doctors’ advice can do nothing to help the kid in gaining weight other than our fate.


This is a serious problem even though it occurs in very rare cases. Let’s wish the research goes well and within no time there comes to light some sort of panacea that helps the nerve cells in the large intestine to work. So that there won’t be any surgeries in the future generations like this. The simple thing that protects your baby from ileum is egg whites, for those who cannot afford to buy the creams in the market. One needs to just apply this very liberally and often on the affected area for the baby.
