What happens to the body after death?

Within 24 hours of death, there are 5 major changes in the body:

1. **Color change

In general, there are significant changes in the body within 24 hours of death. After the heart stops, the blood circulation of the person stops at this time. Therefore, under the influence of gravity, the blood will be deposited in the lower part of the body, and the ** deposited in the blood within a few hours after death will change, and it will generally appear purple, which is the so-called corpse spot.

Usually 12 hours after death, the appearance of corpse spots is the most severe. Therefore, the time of a person's death can be judged by the change in the color of **.

2. The body becomes cold

Within 24 hours of death, the most noticeable change is that the body begins to get colder. Because after a person has no vital signs, the heart stops beating and blood circulation stops. The human body will slowly lose its body temperature, and it will start to get cold and even stiff, so the person's body temperature will also change rapidly after death.

3. Muscle stiffness

After a person dies, there are also some noticeable changes in the muscles at this time. Because after the vital signs are over, the muscles contract and the concentration of calcium ions in the muscle cells increases. As a result, the person's muscles will start to stiffen uncontrollably, and the body will become stiff.

If no antiseptic measures are taken, the human body will slowly begin to decompose and change.

4. Corruption

After death, within 24 hours, decay begins, and the breakdown of proteins, lipids appear in internal organs and tissues under the influence of microorganisms. At this time, there is also a distinct smell of putrefaction, which is a relatively common physical change after death.

5. The body is swollen

Within 24 hours of death, the body may swell, and the body swelling is related to the process of body decay. At this time, under the influence of certain microorganisms, the body organs begin to deteriorate and decay, and some gases will be produced, which will make the human body swell.

After death, the following changes occur in the body:

1. Dehydration of the body

When the deceased was transported from the hospital to his home, he was dehydrated physically, especially on his face, which was even more severe. Originally, there was still some flesh on the face, but it was not well preserved two hours after death, and only skin and bones may have been left, which is caused by the body stopping metabolism after death, resulting in accelerated water evaporation and aggravated body dehydration.

2. The body has a rancid smell

After death, a person may have a rancid smell in a short period of time, and the family uses an ice coffin to preserve the deceased when handling the funeral, which is also to protect the body from rancidity. There is even such news, after transporting the deceased back to the house to handle the funeral, stored in an ice coffin, because the power went out at home, causing the deceased to emit a rancid smell when he went out of the funeral.

Especially in summer, if there is no special treatment, it may lead to the speed of rancid body to accelerate, in fact, because after death, people are affected by bacteria and microorganisms, resulting in the corruption of internal organs, and the body's proteins and lipids will also begin to decompose, forming a putrid smell. In fact, a few days before death, the patient's body will also have a rancid smell.

3. The muscles of the body are abnormally stiff

Under normal circumstances, the muscles of the body will be elastic when pressed, and they will bounce up when pressed, but for the deceased, there will be no such situation, after the death of the person, the end of life characteristics, the muscles will become extremely stiff, mainly because the concentration of calcium ions in the muscles increases, in a short period of time, it will make the patient's body hard. Such stiffness and hardness are more common manifestations of the deceased.

4. Corpse spots appear on the surface

If the deceased is diagnosed as dead by a doctor, in just two hours, many brown spots may appear on the arms and face, which are also called corpse spots. Dead spots are the main manifestation of **change, and after death, **change is very noticeable.

Before death, under the influence of sufficient qi and blood, it will make the blood maintain a certain metabolic state, and the blood circulation flow is good, so that the cells have the effect of respiration.

However, in the face of death, blood circulation begins to stagnate, ** gradually dims, the body temperature slowly decreases, and the temperature of the internal organs decreases, which will lead to the formation of corpse spots. It is possible that in a short period of time, there will be a very large number of brown spots on the **.

What happens to a person's body after death?

In general, the corpse hardens within 30 minutes to 2 hours after death, completely stiffens after 9 hours to 12 hours, softens after 30 hours, and returns to its original state after 70 hours. However, if it is in soil or water, or in the case of low temperature and dryness, it will be delayed, and it will be accelerated under high temperature and humidity conditions.

Coldness of the face and limbs, corpse spots, and stiffness began to appear, and the elapsed time after death was 1 2 hours. The corpse spots are distributed in patches, and the zombies appear for the most part, and the time of death passes for 3 to 4 hours. The corpse spots fused into large patches, the corpse appeared all over the body, the cornea was slightly cloudy, the lips began to wrinkle, and the pupils still reacted with mydriatic and mydriatic drops, and the elapsed time after death was 5 to 6 hours.

Zombies are highly developed, acupressure corpse spots can completely fade, the cornea is highly opaque, and the ocular conjunctiva begins to autolyze about 12 hours after death. The corpse spots can be fully suppressed, parchment paper-like spots are formed, the cornea is highly opaque, scleral black spots appear, the oral mucosa and the ocular nodal segment socking membrane are autolyzed, and the time elapsed after death is about 24 hours.

The timing of the appearance of the above-mentioned corpse phenomena is based on the spring and autumn seasons, which accelerates in summer and slows down in winter.

Deputative abdominal distention, which begins at 8 10 hours after death in spring and autumn, 4 5 hours after death in summer, and 48 72 hours after death in winter. Putrefactive green spots begin to appear about 24 hours after death in spring and autumn, about 12 hours after death in summer, and 72 120 hours after death in winter.

The network of decaying vessels begins to appear in spring and autumn at 48 to 72 hours after death, in summer at 1 2 days after death, and in winter at about 7 days after death. Hair is prone to loss and putrefactive blisters, which appear in spring and autumn at 3 to 5 days after death, in summer at 1 to 2 days after death, and generally do not appear in winter.

The view of the corrupt giants begins to appear in spring and autumn at 3 7 days after death, in summer at 2 3 days after death, and in winter at 15 30 days after death. In the middle of summer, the soft tissues of the corpse liquefy and disappear, and only the bones remain, which takes about a month, and in the case of fly destruction, the time will be shortened. If the corpse is in the water, there are still some corpse phenomena for speculation that the hands and feet are soft and swollen at the time of death, showing a white wrinkled phenomenon, and if it appears in the palms and soles of the feet, the time of death is about 4 hours; If it appears on the back of the hand or foot, the time of death is about 48 hours.

The phenomenon of hands and feet falling off and becoming glove-like, if it appears on the corpse in summer, the time of death is about a week; Winter is around January; In spring and autumn, it is about 2 weeks. The view of the corrupt giant, which appears in the spring and autumn seasons at 7 10 days after death, in the summer at 4 5 days, and in the winter months in the month. It needs to be emphasized again that the occurrence and development of the cadaveric phenomenon is constrained by various conditions.

After death, people slowly lose their moisture and dry up or decay, and finally change from organic matter to inorganic matter?
