What is muscle weakness and how to manage it

Myasthenia is a chronic condition caused by a disorder of neuromuscular transmission. Muscle weakness is not only a long course but also difficult to develop, and patients suffer from psychological and physical pain at the onset of the disease, and often face a huge financial burden. Therefore, in order to detect this type of disease as early as possible, it is necessary to understand the early symptoms of muscle weakness in detail.

The following will introduce you to the early symptoms of muscle weakness. 1. Fatigue.

Fatigue is a common early symptom of muscle weakness. The patient was indistinguishable from an ordinary person in appearance, with no muscle atrophy or obvious body surface abnormalities. However, patients often have a severe sense of fatigue and often feel fatigued.

It is mostly manifested as difficulty in lifting hands, weakness in movement, etc. In addition, this feeling of fatigue is mild in the morning and heavy in the evening. When the patient is very tired, he or she will feel relieved after resting.

2. Drooping eyelids.

This symptom is most common in the early stages of muscle weakness and can manifest as unilateral or bilateral ptosis, weakness of the upper and lower eyelids, etc. This symptom can manifest at any age, but is more common in children.

3. Double vision. Double vision, which is double vision, when two eyes look at the same thing together, they will see one thing as two or more; Covering one eye, on the other hand, will see a thing. The main cause of double vision is weakness of the eye muscles, and similarly, patients may also suffer from symptoms such as strabismus.

Fourth, the breath is insufficient, and the lips and teeth are weak.

When the patient speaks for too long, the voice becomes deep and nasal, making it sound like the person is out of breath. In addition, due to the involvement of swallowing muscles, intercostal muscles and other muscles, patients often have symptoms such as difficulty chewing and dyspnea, and severe dyspnea often coughs and speaks weakly. Due to the weakness of the facial muscles, patients often have symptoms such as an apathetic expression and extreme difficulty in blowing on the cheeks.

The course of myasthenia is mostly slow, but there are also a very small number of patients with rapid onset and acute disease, such patients will have symptoms such as bulbar muscle weakness and dyspnea in a short period of time, and in complex cases, all of the above symptoms can be reflected.

There are many ways to treat muscle weakness, Chinese medicine advocates taking Chinese medicine and moderate exercise, while Western medicine mainly uses anticholinesterase drugs and immunosuppressants. In addition, muscle weakness caused by thymoma is mostly performed by surgical resection**. Patients with early stage of muscle weakness should avoid overwork, do not stay up late, work and rest regularly, prevent wind and cold, prevent infection, properly supplement nutrition, and exercise appropriately.

People with muscle weakness should seek immediate medical attention if discomfort worsens.

The conditioning of patients with muscle weakness includes:1Life conditioning, because the patient's skeletal muscles are extremely intolerant of fatigue, family members need to help the patient complete daily life such as living, washing face, brushing teeth, dressing, eating, etc., accompany the patient to carry out appropriate exercises, and passively massage the affected limb to prevent limb atrophy and deformity.

2.Nursing conditioning: Because the patient has choking on drinking water and difficulty swallowing, it is necessary to eat slowly, mainly semi-liquid, to prevent obvious choking and lung infection.

The diet is mainly high protein and high vitamins, such as fish, shrimp, eggs, and milk.

Muscle weakness is actually a severe dysfunction of the spleen and stomach. In particular, the function of the spleen. This is best to find. There are also more powerful Chinese medicine doctors, and Western medicine can't cure this disease.

There are many types of myasthenia, and here we mainly talk about myasthenia gravis. Myasthenia gravis is a neuropathic disease, and its ** is divided into many aspects, first of all, anti-cholinesterase drugs, such as pyrimidimin bromide, pyridostigmine bromide, mainly to control the symptoms of myasthenia, rather than completely **, just improve the symptoms, to achieve no symptoms or reduced symptoms.

This refers to unexplained fatigue, or fatigue that doctors can't associate with a medical condition. Another name for it is myalgic encephalomyelitis. People with chronic fatigue syndrome experience severe fatigue and sleep problems.

Other symptoms include muscle weakness, pain, dizziness, and problems concentrating.

Muscle weakness refers to a significant decrease in the strength of one or more muscles, and the muscles are unable to move normally, mainly due to central and peripheral nervous system lesions, muscle lesions and neuromuscular junction lesions.

Patients with muscle weakness should eat more nutritious foods, such as milk, eggs, soy products, fish and shrimp, lean meat, etc., and should also eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as apples, bananas, dragon fruit, etc. Patients with this disease should also follow the doctor's instructions to take nutrition, nerve and other drugs on time, and actively carry out ** training.

There are various causes of myasthenic disorders, and different patients can choose the following ** ways to alleviate the symptoms of myasthenia according to their own conditions:

1. Drugs**, which can be carried out by oral hormones or neostigmine and mestigmine**, are suitable for patients with myasthenia gravis. Clause.

Second, with immunity and hormones**, suitable for Guillain-Barré syndrome. Clause.

3. Genetic factors should be considered in such a condition in children, and medical treatment should be sought as soon as possible. Clause.

4. Pay attention to your diet and eat more high-protein foods.

First of all, it is necessary to have an optimistic attitude towards life, which helps **. Invigorate the spirit, keep the mood comfortable, the mental and emotional activities are closely related to the physiological changes of the human body, the spirit is comfortable, the spirit is happy, the qi is smooth, the qi and blood are harmonized, and the function of the viscera is coordinated.

Reasonable diet, do not eat partially, reasonable diet and adequate nutrition are necessary conditions to ensure the growth and development of the human body.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the disease is located in the spleen, and it is necessary to pay attention to the spleen and stomach at all times. From the treatment of other organs, we should also take care of the spleen and stomach. And the use of pure Chinese medicine prescriptions as chelating agents**Myasthenia gravis and other impotence can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and the efficacy is far better than the conventional methods of Western medicine.

Based on the principle of nourishing the liver and kidneys, strengthening muscles and bones, dispelling wind and circulation, nourishing the heart and qi, and nourishing the muscles, the ** regulates ACHR, dissolves sediments, inhibits the production of anti-ACHR antibodies, adjusts immune function, improves the symptoms of patients with impotence, and further consolidates the effect. The "TCM Gutai Strong Muscle Series Formula + Strong Tendon Balance** + Acupuncture and Moxibustion Immunity Method" created by the Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine Impotence Research Center has overcome the traditional method list.

First, the defects of large and poor effect, according to the individual differences of patients and the differentiation of the disease, the principle of "one person, one party" to develop a personalized plan, clinical application is more targeted, marking a major breakthrough and progress in neurological diseases such as muscle weakness and muscular dystrophy in traditional Chinese medicine. Since its inception, it has successfully relieved the pain of tens of thousands of patients and allowed them to have a better life again.

Myasthenia usually refers to myasthenia gravis, and once muscle weakness occurs, it must be diagnosed definitively and early**.

First, cholinesterase inhibitors, such as pyridostigmine bromide, which inhibits cholinesterase and increases acetylcholine concentrations in peripheral synapses.

Second, immunosuppressants, glucocorticoids are indicated for patients who have had a poor response to anticholinesterase drugs and have had thymectomy, as well as azathioprine.

Third, plasmapheresis removes antibodies and is suitable for patients with rapid deterioration or myasthenic crisis.

Fourth, intravenous gamma globulin occlusion antibodies are suitable for various types of crises and are simpler and easier to perform than plasma exchange. Plasma exchange and gamma globulin are more expensive and have better efficacy.

Fifth, thymectomy, patients with myasthenia gravis under 60 years old can be treated with thymectomy, which is suitable for generalized myasthenia gravis, including elderly patients, and usually improves or relieves symptoms.

The specific manifestations are drooping eyelids, diplopia, etc., or the muscles of the whole body are affected at the same time, aggravated after fatigue, and partially recovered after rest. The extent and extent of the affected muscles vary widely.

Patients with muscle weakness are often considered to have symptoms such as muscle atrophy, hemiplegia, and fatigue. Such patients are considered to belong to the category of impotence syndrome in some problems in traditional Chinese medicine, which can be seen in qi deficiency, qi and blood deficiency and other problems. When muscle weakness occurs, there are several symptoms, which are muscle weakness.

1. Dysphagia: The early symptoms of myasthenia gravis are no digestive tract diseases, and the appetite is good, but I can't swallow good food and food, and I can't even swallow water. When you drink water, you either choke on your trachea and cough or it comes out of your nostrils.

Some patients have severe dysphagia and must rely on a nasogastric tube for feeding.

2. General weakness: The early symptoms of myasthenia gravis look good from the outside, and there is no muscle atrophy, as if there is no disease, but the patient often feels severe general weakness, unable to lift shoulders, unable to lift hands, unable to stand up when squatting, and even relying on others to help wash his face and comb his hair. The patient's muscle weakness symptoms improve significantly after resting for a while, and they will be significantly worse after a little work, as if they are pretending.

3. Double vision: that is, double vision. Seeing together with two eyes, one thing becomes two; If you cover one eye, you see one.

Very young children do not describe diplopia, and often compensatorily tilt their heads and torticollis so that they can see clearly because of their disappearance, and in severe cases, they can also manifest as strabismus.

I don't know if you said about the eyes or the body, if it is the body, go to the hospital for a check-up, ask the doctor, and do the correct **.

If it's the eyes, you can't take it lightly, it may be related to some parts of your body.

Eye muscle weakness is the inability of the eye muscles to maintain normal physiological functions, the eyelids are persistently drooping, and the eye movement is also different from normal.

One. Causes of eye muscle weakness.

1.It is related to autoimmunity.

2.Congenital causes – related to genetics: such as genes such as T cell receptors, immunoglobulins, cytokines, apoptosis, etc.

3.Acquired causes: reduced immunity due to environmental pollution; Excessive eye use such as playing with mobile phones can lead to eye fatigue and muscle weakness;

Second, how to **.

1.Adjust your work and rest, ensure sufficient rest time, and relieve eye muscle fatigue.

2.Boost immunity and go to the hospital**.

3.If the eye muscle weakness cannot be recovered for a long time, which affects the appearance and vision, levator surgery can be taken.
