What to do if an elderly person has myelitis?

The onset of osteomyelitis is a very painful thing, which seriously affects our normal life and work, and everyone should pay attention to it. Especially in the elderly, the vitality of cells is very weak, and if you suffer from osteomyelitis, it is likely to be life-threatening. The elderly should have a good understanding of what osteomyelitis is, and at the same time know what to do if they have osteomyelitis.

Generally speaking, the difficulty of osteomyelitis in the elderly is how to promote the lysis of dead bones and the elimination of dead space, but the most critical is the regeneration of the periosteum and the fusion with bone tissue. First, the osteoclast is activated to dissolve the dead bone and eliminate the dead space. Alteration of bone and soft tissue lesions in calcified areas.

It then accelerates the growth of osteoblast cytokines, repairs diseased tissues, and achieves wound and sinus healing. So what are the best methods of senile osteomyelitis?

Drugs**: The methods of medicines** are mainly divided into traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. Western medicine mainly uses antibiotics.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that osteomyelitis is caused by the lack of righteous qi in the human body, the yin deficiency of the liver and kidneys, the abundance of evil poison, the loss of yin fluid, and the low ability to resist evil.

Surgery**: The goal is to drain pus, reduce the symptoms of blood poisoning, and prevent acute osteomyelitis from turning into chronic osteomyelitis. Surgery should be done as early as possible, as it cannot prevent the progression of acute osteomyelitis to transgender.

However, the body of the elderly is heavy, so the elderly generally do not choose surgery** osteomyelitis. This is one of the best methods of osteomyelitis in the elderly.

The above methods are mainly about the first method of the elderly, and people who have entered the old age stage should pay attention to it. The old age stage is the process of cell degeneration, and it is very difficult to get osteomyelitis at this time, but only if it is found in time, the possibility of the patient is still very large. Remind the elderly to do a good job of prevention in their daily life and live out their old age in peace.

Acute myelitis refers to a non-specific inflammatory lesion of the spinal cord, which usually occurs after infection, and the inflammation often involves the gray and white matter of several medullary segments and the surrounding meninges, and the thoracic cord is the most susceptible to invasion and produces symptoms of transverse spinal cord injury. Acute myelitis is more common in young adults, and there may be a history of fever, general malaise, or upper respiratory tract infection in the days or 1 to 2 weeks before the illness. The onset is acute, often followed by back pain or a feeling of band in the chest and waist, followed by numbness, weakness and other symptoms, and the symptoms develop to a peak within a few hours to a few days, with symptoms of transverse spinal cord damage.

Please go to the local regular hospital for examination, after clarifying the condition, determine the best plan, the effect will be better, and the fee will be more fair and reasonable.

It's this, you can Yang's marrow soup, do you say it's bjzy112, believe me.

1. Can myelitis be completely **?

The answer to this question is that myelitis can be effective and thorough if you choose the right method after the symptoms are found. However, if the symptoms are found and the diagnosis is delayed, the best period is delayed, and the disease is seriously worsened, then the possibility of complete ** is relatively small.

2. Initial symptoms of myelitis.

In order for spondylitis to be completely effective**, timely detection is very important, so we need to understand the symptoms of myelitis in the early stages. The initial symptoms of myelitis may appear low-grade fever, general malaise and symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, some people will have back pain, numbness and weakness of the limbs, etc., many people will confuse these symptoms with the general cold and fever, so do not blindly judge when these symptoms need to appear again, and go to a regular hospital to be examined to determine the disease, as soon as possible**.

3. Myelitis ** method.

Myelitis will generally be treated with medication and physiotherapy, generally using immunosuppressants and some neurotrophic drugs, or taking some traditional Chinese medicine to clear heat and detoxify, in addition to taking these drugs, acupuncture, massage, induction electricity and other physiotherapy aids** disease.

4. Postoperative recovery.

Myelitis patients want to be thorough**, in addition to the early stage**, postoperative recovery is also very crucial. Usually massage frequently, keep the best neat and clean, the patient's family should often help the patient turn over, help them exercise passively, and prevent the patient from having respiratory tract infection, so as to effectively prevent and treat postoperative complications and help the myelitis thoroughly.

At present, the main drugs for myelitis include methylcobalamin, cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, cefixime, and rifampicin. Drugs**. Drugs have a greater effect on the disease, including:

Methylcobalamin: It is a neuroprotective drug, which can nourish nerves, reduce nerve damage, and promote nerve repair.

Most patients have a history of upper respiratory tract infection 1 to 3 weeks prior to the onset of myelitis, such as fever, cough, and body aches. Symptoms of myelitis are often sudden, often preceded by chest and back or abdominal aches, and the feeling of a band is tightly tied around the body. Myelitis** is more common and can affect nerve function to cause symptoms in patients.

The main use of neuroprotective drugs for myelitis is the use of drugs that promote the recovery of nerve function; There is also a look at the patient's condition in the acute phase, and some are carried out for **, such as the early use of antiviral and hormonal drugs.

The so-called three-point rule and seven-point itching, in the later stage, you also need to pay attention to daily life, strengthen nutrition, eat high-protein and high-vitamin foods, pay attention to your own warmth, and don't get cold.

Keep ** clean and dry, keep the sheets dry, soft and flat; Turning over frequently; The paralyzed limb should be maintained in a functional posture and passive movements should be performed as soon as possible. Place balloons or pads on the sacrum, ankles, shoulder blades, etc. Massage often, followed by a massage with alcohol.

Keep the airway open and clear respiratory secretions in time. For dyspnea, oxygen should be absorbed as soon as possible. If the cough is mild and the sputum cannot be discharged, a tracheotomy should be prompted and, if necessary, an artificial ventilator should be used.

For patients who have already been on artificial ventilators, sputum should be suctioned in a timely manner for no more than 15 seconds each time, with an interval of 3 to 5 minutes. The humidified solution should be dripped into the trachea, 2 5ml each time, every 15 minutes; The inner coat is changed twice a day, the outer coat is changed every half a month, and the gauze pad is changed twice a day. The catheter should be retained for urinary retention and opened every 3 to 5 hours.

The bladder should be rinsed with an acid solution of Linz or 3 1 2 times a day, 250 ml each time, released half an hour later.

Myelitis can generally be given in the form of medications**. For example, anti-inflammatory and anti-infective drugs can be selected, which can help improve some symptoms caused by myelitis after using drugs, and intravenous infusion drugs are also needed if necessary.

Myelitis is mostly a disease caused by long-term chronic inflammatory infection, and it should be detected early after the disease is discovered, and it also needs careful care.

Myelitis should be diagnosed early, with early care, and early training is also important for prognosis. Medications**, which can be administered with corticosteroids in the acute phase**. In addition, high doses of immunoglobulin are required, and B vitamins are also needed to help restore nerve function.

According to the results of etiological examination and drug susceptibility test, sensitive antibiotics are selected to control respiratory tract and urinary tract infections in time to avoid aggravation of the disease. In the acute phase, antiviral drugs should be added, and these drugs should be used under the guidance of a professional physician, and should not be used on your own. The early stage of the paralyzed limb should be kept in a functional position, to prevent limb joint spasm and joint contracture, to promote muscle recovery, and passive, active training and local limb massage to promote the functional recovery of the limb.

Acute myelitis is an inflammatory lesion, most of the patients with this disease will have sensory impairment, paralysis and other symptoms, if the patient does not carry out timely and effective **, it is likely to endanger their own life, with the continuous progress of medical technology, the method of acute myelitis is more and more, patients should not forget the correct diet while carrying out **.

Cabbage buns: Wash the cabbage, chop it into minced pieces and squeeze out the water; Wash the pork and chop it into pieces; Peel and wash the green onion and ginger, finely chop and set aside.

It should be used in patients with acute myelitis.

**Improper delay, delayed ischemic necrosis of the damaged spinal cord, and there is no hope of recovery after the ** period.

The best way to treat myelitis is generally to nourish the nerves: give high doses of vitamins to promote the recovery of nerve function. Plasmapheresis:

It can remove harmful substances such as autocirculating antibodies and immune complexes in the patient's plasma, which is beneficial to the prevention of infection and recovery, and can relieve symptoms in critically ill patients. Ultraviolet irradiation oxygenated self-blood transfusion: Reinfusion after oxygenated ultraviolet irradiation can promote the recovery of spinal cord function.

.Other**.

Different methods of myelitis** differ. Generally anti-infective** and immune**.

It is more common in young adults, and there may be a history of exposure to tuberculosis or a history of tuberculosis before the disease. Onset is usually slow, with spinal cord symptoms accompanied by low-grade fever, anorexia, weight loss, and night sweats. Spinal cord damage is often incomplete, with limb paralysis, sensory deficits, and urinary and urinary dysfunction below the level of the lesion.

After having myelitis, it is necessary to seek medical attention in a timely manner, improve relevant examinations, and clarify the diagnosis, so as to standardize**. At present, glucocorticoids are the drug of choice, and neurological drugs such as vitamin B1, vitamin B6, micobol and murine nerve growth factor ** are also required, as well as symptomatic support**. If there is inflammation, it is necessary to be anti-inflammatory** to prevent complications such as bedsores and venous thrombosis of the lower limbs, and acupuncture** exercises are required after the condition is stabilized to promote the recovery of limb function, and infection needs to be avoided in daily life to prevent inducing the disease**.

Early detection, early as possible** Chinese medicine is recommended**.

After the patient has myelitis, he should go to the hospital as soon as possible, be clear, and proceed to the next step in time. Whether it can be cured or not depends on the patient's condition. Some myelitis can be completely cured, but it takes time.

Some myelitis does not recover completely and may leave sequelae of varying severity.

【Transverse myelitis】Patients with lesions located in the cervical spinal cord have quadriplegia, and if the high neck position is involved, it can cause dyspnea due to diaphragmatic movement disorders, and the corresponding damage to sensory impairment below the plane. In the early stages of acute disease, there is often urinary and urinary retention, and after the spinal cord shock period, a reflex bladder gradually develops.

The more common ones are transverse myelitis, which is more common in adolescents and is caused by a viral infection. Symptoms of myelitis are often mild, such as low-grade fever, general malaise, or upper respiratory tract infection.

Myelitis is an inflammatory lesion that causes abnormal symptoms such as sensory impairment, autonomic dysfunction and paralysis of lower limbs, which can seriously affect the normal behavior of patients.

It is recommended to pay attention to physical exercise in the later stage, and also pay attention to film and television, ** If you want to use traditional Chinese medicine to regulate and repair damaged neurons.
