In the elderly, due to the atrophy of the nasal mucosa, the reduction of nasal hair, the incarnation of ciliary cells of the trachea and bronchial endomelia, the decrease of cilia, and the increase of bronchial secretions and viscosity, which is conducive to the accumulation of inflammatory products and the reproduction of bacteria.
In addition, the hardness of the chest expansion gradually increases, the strength of the respiratory muscles gradually weakens, and the effect of cough and expectoration becomes worse. In addition, the cellular immune function of the elderly is significantly reduced, which is easy to induce respiratory tract infection.
Chronic bronchitis is the most common respiratory disease in the elderly, especially smokers, with a long and recurrent course of disease, in addition to upper respiratory tract infections, pneumonia and tuberculosis also often occur.

Cough and sputum production are common clinical manifestations of the respiratory system.
The common causes of cough in the elderly are chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Most of these diseases are related to weather factors, and patients often present with recurrent cough and sputum production at the turn of the season, which is not easy to improve.
For such patients, influenza vaccination and lung inflammation vaccination are recommended at the turn of the season. Vaccination reduces the probability of acute episodes of chronic bronchia, as well as the probability of pneumonia flare-ups.
**Empiric anti-infection, and the addition of Metster nebulizer for nebulization** and anti-inflammatory, symptomatic cough, etc.**. Cough and sputum production are common clinical manifestations of the respiratory system.

Personally, I think it should be caused by low immunity, and he should be allowed to take a little more vitamins.
-
Asthma is very difficult to treat, so you can only try it with some sprays.
-
The basic method of asthma in the elderly and asthma in young children is the same, that is, inhalation of tracheal dilators such as ICS, etc., if the patient has exercise asthma or asthma caused by aspirin drugs, the use of leukotriene modifiers such as monteluk sodium can be considered.
-
The elderly have poor regulation ability, and cold and dampness can easily lead to heat loss in the airways and disorders in the intracellular environment of the epithelium, which induces the release of mediators from mast cells and causes bronchial asthma.
-
Chinese medicine regulates it, asthma is a problem with the lungs and heart, and it can be better to use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate the effect.
-
Because the elderly are in very poor physical condition, and they are prone to colds and asthma on hot and cold days. The elderly should pay attention to keeping warm in the morning and evening to prevent him from catching a cold, and at the same time, you can mix some traditional Chinese medicine for a long time, I think this effect is also very large, and it can control asthma**.

Decreased lung function in older people causes this symptom due to lung lesions. You have to use the combination of wheat and so on to nourish the lungs.

Senile asthma is a fairly common respiratory disease in our lives, and the disease is quite harmful to patients, so we need to know more about the inducements of the disease, so that we can do a good job of prevention. Senile asthma is a fairly common respiratory disease in our lives, and the disease is quite harmful to patients, so we need to know more about the inducements of the disease, so that we can do a good job of prevention. The following is a doctor to introduce you to the three major ** of senile asthma.
The three major types of senile asthma.
1) Gastroesophageal reflux in the elderly is prone to gastroesophageal reflux due to the relaxation of the cardia sphincter and surrounding tissues. Gastroesophageal reflux can aspirate particle-laden acidic gastric juice into the tracheobronchial tubes, causing chemical inflammation of the airways, exacerbating or triggering asthma, or causing bronchospasm through the vagus reflex.
2) Smoking: Long-term smoking is one of the important causes of the disease in later life. Long-term smoking can cause chronic bronchitis and emphysema in some people, that is, it can cause chronic airway inflammation, which in turn can cause airway hyperresponsiveness. Authors have reported that most of the patients have a history of smoking or are smoking, and that the prevalence of asthma is higher in older smokers than in non-smokers.
3) Drug effects on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease is a common disease in the elderly, often need to take 2 receptor blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and aspirin-like substances, although recently the study of highly selective 1 receptors, but also has a certain blocking effect on the 2 receptors of bronchial smooth muscle, which leads to bronchial smooth muscle contraction and induces the disease. The above is the content of "the three major ** of senile asthma", we understand the induction of the disease, we should pay more attention to the above-mentioned **, and actively do a good job in the prevention of senile asthma.

The elderly are weak and have low immunity.

Clause.
1. Long-term smoking. Long-term smoking can cause bronchial hyperresponsiveness, but bronchial hyperresponsiveness is one of the main pathophysiological features of bronchial asthma.
Clause. Second, the application of receptor blockers. The elderly are susceptible to ischemic heart disease, arrhythmia, hypertension, glaucoma, so when using various receptor blockers, such as indololol, timoraxinol, medoxinol, etc., there are relatively more chances to block the 2 receptors of bronchial smooth muscle, so that bronchial smooth muscle spasm and induce asthma.
3. The application of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin, such preparations are blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins and promoting the synthesis of leukotyenotrienes, which have a strong bronchospasmodic effect, but in order to prevent cerebral thrombosis and ischemic heart disease, the elderly should use drugs such as aspirin to cause asthma attacks.
Clause. 4. Recurrence of upper respiratory tract infections. Recurrent infections can damage airway epithelial cells and cause asthma in bronchial children.

Because older people get older, their respiratory system, lung function also declines, and metabolism decreases, so they are prone to asthma.

Autumn diarrhea is an acute enteritis caused by rotavirus, which is characterized by acute onset, severe illness, fever, severe upper respiratory tract symptoms, vomiting, frequent diarrhea, watery stools like rice or egg drop soup, and often accompanied by systemic symptoms such as dehydration acidosis. If it is not timely**, it is easy to develop severe dehydration and even shock. >>>More
For gingival bleeding, the traditional method is ultrasonic scaling, depending on the situation, subgingival scaling, serious wounds should also do some anti-inflammatory treatment, ultrasonic scaling is a destructive way to descaling, the process of scaling will inevitably bring pain to the patient, ultrasonic scaling can only bring cleaning effect, can not be effective for gingival recession, tartar can still re-enter the gums from the gap between the teeth caused by atrophied gums, and the gums are still bleeding soon after, and there is no cure. In addition, ultrasonic teeth cleaning and disinfection are worrying, and the danger of cross-infection through blood objectively exists, which discourages many patients. >>>More

Parkinson's disease mainly occurs in middle-aged and elderly people, and the onset of disease before the age of 40 is rare, suggesting that aging is related to the onset of the disease, and studies have found that since the age of 30, the activity of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, tyrosine oxidase and dopa decarboxylase, and the level of dopamine transmitters in the striatum gradually decrease with age, however, only a small number of elderly people suffer from this disease, indicating that physiological dopaminergic neuronal metamorphosis is not enough to cause disease, and aging is only a contributing factor for the onset of this disease. Parkinson's is not a single factor, and a variety of factors may be involved. Genetic factors can increase susceptibility to disease, and only under the interaction with environmental factors and aging, through the mechanism of oxygen stress, mitochondrial failure, calcium overload, excitatory amino acid toxicity, apoptosis, and immune abnormalities, a large number of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra can be degenerated and lost. >>>More
