    ALS, can not be cured, ALS is the motor neuron disease, also known as, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a motor neuron, unexplained appearance, degenerative necrosis caused by the disease, at present, the cause of the occurrence of ADHD, is not clear, there is no good way, there is no thorough way, so, see the ADHD can not be cured, ALS, once diagnosed, the main prevention is to prevent dyspnea, and cause the death of the patient, the most important thing is to use the ventilator of the patient, Affected by the cumulative availability of ventilators, at the beginning, available, non-invasive, to the end, available, windowed, tracheostomy with ventilator to assist breathing, is, prolonging life, the most fundamental means, other, drugs, some drugs. There is a certain slowing trend, but it is incurable.

    ALS cannot be completely cured by current medical treatments. Although ALS is a disease that cannot be completely improved, a variety of methods can improve the quality of life of patients and delay the progression of the disease.

    ALS requires early diagnosis and early treatment, and patients should use a high-protein and high-calorie diet, and eat small, frequent meals and eat soft and semi-liquid foods in their daily life. Patients with severe dysphagia may be fed by nasogastric tube or percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy. If respiratory muscle weakness is present, noninvasive assisted ventilation may be considered, and tracheostomy or ventilator-assisted ventilation may be given if necessary; In addition, ALS patients can also take medications** to slow the progression of the disease.

    ALS cannot be treated, but it can be systematically diagnosed and treated to delay the progression of the disease.

    ALS is a motor neuron disease, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, mainly because the patient's brain or motor nerve cells have been significantly damaged, resulting in obvious muscle atrophy in the patient, resulting in paralysis of the patient, the body as if it is frozen, and in the early stage, because the symptoms are relatively insidious, so everyone may not know that they have a disease.

    ALS is not possible at the current level of medical care.

    ALS, also known as motor neuron disease, is a series of chronic progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by upper and lower motor neuron damage, characterized by different combinations of upper and lower motor neuron damage, characterized by muscle weakness and atrophy, bulbar palsy, and pyramidal tract signs. To date, there is a lack of drugs that can effectively reverse or control the progression of motor neuron disease.

    Motor neuron disease, depending on the type of disease and the age of onset, is different, primary lateral sclerosis develops slowly, and the prognosis is good; Some patients with progressive amyotrophy can remain stable for a longer period of time but do not improve. Patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, progressive bulbar palsy, and some progressive amyotrophic atrophy have a poor prognosis and the disease continues to develop. Death from respiratory muscle paralysis or lung infection within more than five years.

    There is currently no special effect for this**method, it can only be symptomatic**, for example, if you have pain, you have mobility problems, I will give you some medicine to relieve the pain and relieve the inconvenience of mobility, and eventually it will become a state of being paralyzed in bed without being able to take care of yourself.

    ALS is a group of motor neuron diseases, the main type of which is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (i.e., motor neuroblastic atrophy), because the characteristic manifestation is gradual muscle atrophy and weakness, as if the body is gradually frozen.

    ALS is also known as motor neuron disease, the latter name is commonly used in the United Kingdom, Charcot disease in France, and Lou Gehray disease in the United States. In China, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and motor neuron disease are commonly mixed. It is caused by damage to the upper and lower motor neurons, resulting in gradual weakness and atrophy of the muscles including the bulbar (the bulbar refers to the part of the muscles innervated by the medulla), limbs, trunk, chest and abdomen.

    The condition of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is still unknown. In 20% of cases, it may be related to heredity or genetic defects. In addition, some environmental factors, such as heavy metal poisoning, can cause motor neuron damage. The main theories of the causes of motor neuron damage are:

    1. Neurotoxic substances accumulate, glutamate accumulates between nerve cells, and over time, causes damage to nerve cells.

    2. Free radicals damage nerve cell membranes.

    3. Lack of nerve growth factor makes it impossible for nerve cells to continue to grow and develop.

    ALS, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a motor neuron disease, and the disease is not particularly clear at present, so there is no specific drug for this disease, or the means can be complete. In the early stage, under the guidance of a doctor, the drug can be used to relieve the symptoms to a certain extent, but it cannot prevent the further progression of the disease.

    Patients often die within 3-5 years from complications such as paralysis of respiratory muscles or pneumonia. Since this disease cannot be regulated, it is mainly necessary to regulate the diet and lifestyle, ensure adequate nutrition, keep the respiratory tract unobstructed, avoid complications, and effectively prolong the survival period of patients. Therefore, ALS is a progressive process of development and cannot be **.

    However, some antioxidant preparations, neurotrophic drugs, including some mitochondrial protectors, etc., can be used, which may block the rapid development of frostbite and even reduce some symptoms.

    ALS is currently not curable.

    ALS, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a disease caused by unexplained degeneration and necrosis of motor neurons.

    At present, the cause of ALS is unclear, there is no good way, and there is no complete way, so ADS cannot be cured.

    Once ALS is diagnosed, the main prevention is to prevent the patient's death due to dyspnea, with the most important being the use of a ventilator. When the patient's respiratory muscles are affected, a ventilator can be used, which can be non-invasive at the beginning, and can be used with invasive tracheostomy at the end.

    Other drugs**, some drugs have a certain tendency to delay the progression of the disease, but they should not**.

    ALS patients often do not live long, usually not more than 10 years, mainly because ALS patients gradually worsen quadriplegia, oropharyngeal dysfunction, dyspnea, swallowing, choking on drinking water, etc., which can cause aspiration, resulting in uncontrolled lung infection and suffocation and death.

    Therefore, the factors that cause death in ALS people are mainly due to the death of complications, and the life expectancy is generally 10 years, but some patients can survive for a long time with good care. There are people who have ALS and are able to survive for a long time with good care and die until they are in their 70s. Therefore, the key is to take care to avoid serious complications such as lung infections and suffocation that can lead to death.

    The full name of ALS should be called motor neuron disease, and the main content is called amyotrophic lateral chordate and rolling sclerosis, which covers the lesions of lower motor neuron and upper motor neurons. The main epigenetic manifestations of upper neuron lesions are muscle weakness, muscle rigidity, and tendon hyperreflexia, while the main manifestations of lower motor neuron lesions are muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, and muscle tremor. How long you can live with ALS depends on how quickly the disease progresses, and some can survive for a long time if the disease progresses slowly, remains stable for a long time, or does not affect important muscles.

    If the patient progresses very rapidly, quickly causing quadriplegia and paralysis of the throat muscles and respiratory muscles, the life expectancy of such patients will be significantly shortened. In summary, according to the literature, the average survival life of ALS is 5-7 years, the shortest may be 2-3 years, and the longest can reach 10-20 years. On the one hand, it depends on the medical condition, and on the other hand, it depends on the medical conditions at the time to determine how long you can survive.

    ALS, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is mainly manifested as progressive aggravation of skeletal muscle weakness, which is simply impossible to achieve according to the current level of medical technology.

    This disease often manifests as progressive muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, and fasciculations caused by damage to upper and lower motor neurons. Seizures occur mainly between the ages of 30 and 60 and are mostly male.

    ALS refers to muscle atrophy and sclerosis, which is caused by neurological lesions, and patients will have muscle twitches, weakness, uncontrolled and other symptoms, and with the development of the disease, there will be symptoms such as dyspnea, limb movement disorders, swallowing disorders, and need disorders, which is a disease with a high mortality rate, and the probability of ** is not large.

    It is necessary to use a combination of ** methods**, oral drugs to control the condition and relieve symptoms while using supportive instruments for physiotherapy and **exercise, and patients with dyspnea also need to use breathing apparatus with ** for better effect.

    In addition, family members should also help patients with basic daily activities such as eating, talking, dressing and bathing, which can also play a role in assisting.

    Mixed form of upper and lower motor neuron disease. Usually the first symptom is hand muscle weakness and atrophy, which generally starts from one side and then spreads to the opposite side, and with the development of the disease, there are mixed symptoms of upper and lower motor neuron damage, which is called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In the late stage of the disease, the muscles of the whole body are emaciated and atrophied, so that they cannot raise their heads, have difficulty breathing, and are bedridden.

    The disease usually occurs between the ages of 40 and 60, and about 5 to 10% have a family history, and the course of the disease varies in speed and progression.
