What is Sj gren s syndrome and how is it treated?

Sjögren's syndrome is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease, which is a chronic autoimmune disease that mainly violates the tear glands, salivary glands and other exocrine glands, also known as autoimmune exocrine adenosis. Sjögren's syndrome can occur at any age, with the most common incidence after middle age, and is predominantly female.

Patients with Sjögren's syndrome need symptomatic medication according to the degree of individual pathology, to avoid or reduce multiple systemic damage, can take Western medicine**, if the human cornea is dry, artificial tears can be used to effectively alleviate the symptoms. If you find that there are ulcers and perforations in the corners of the eyes, you can apply a topical cream to the affected area, which can effectively alleviate the symptoms. Patients with Sjögren's syndrome have abnormal immune function, need to take some immunosuppressants, can effectively alleviate the symptoms, at the beginning need to choose the minimum dose of drugs, need to check the peripheral blood picture of the human body every week, if the total number of white blood cells is lower than the normal value, need to stop the medication, but also need to observe the actual clinical symptoms of each person.

Sjögren's syndrome mainly affects various exocrine glands, including lacrimal glands, salivary glands, etc. The main symptoms are dry mouth, dry eyes, enlarged salivary and parotid glands, and even the absence of tears. In particularly severe cases, decreased tear secretion can cause keratitis, even corneal ulcers, blindness, there can be rheumatoid arthritis and other connective tissue diseases, salivary gland enlargement is most common in the parotid gland, can also be accompanied by submandibular gland, sublingual gland enlargement, mostly bilateral, can also occur unilaterally, parotid gland is diffuse enlargement, the border is not obvious.

Damage to internal organs can also occur, and it may also affect the entire digestive tract, resulting in a decrease in the secretion of digestive glands, and patients will experience decreased appetite and poor appetite.

Sjögren's syndrome does not directly affect lifespan and is not directly life-threatening, but if left unchecked, Sjögren's syndrome may cause the patient's heart to develop lesions, and it is very dangerous to have a heart attack. Sjogren's syndrome also does not have a good effect. Some people who suffer from the disease can**.

But it still can't achieve the best effect.

**Sjögren's syndrome is mainly to take measures to improve symptoms, control the condition, and slow down the progression of tissue and organ damage caused by immune response and secondary infection. This disease is chronic, and long-term medication** is required to control the disease, improve symptoms, and prevent the disease from progressing. or slow its development.

**Traditional Chinese medicine for this disease has a good effect, the combination of overall and local, early strengthening**, persistence**, the effect is better, and the symptoms can be further improved.

Sjögren's syndrome is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease of the systemic exocrine glands (especially lacrimal and salivary glands).

Sjögren's syndrome is a systemic autoimmune disorder that most commonly presents with dry eyes and mouth; Drink plenty of water, seek medical attention in time, seek professional help, buy some medicines, and look up some tips online.

Sjögren's syndrome is a rheumatic immune disease, which mainly occurs in middle-aged and elderly women, and can cause dry mouth, dry eyes, etc.; This disease is best to prescribe the right medicine, dry mouth, dry eyes separately **, dry mouth can choose artificial saliva, dry eyes to use artificial tears.

Sjögren's syndrome is a chronic autoimmune disease with dry mouth and dry eyes as the main manifestations, and it can also involve multiple systems and organs throughout the body, resulting in complex clinical symptoms.

Sjogren's syndrome, it is a syndrome, it is a salivary gland, lacrimal gland as the main target organs, such an exocrine gland involvement, a high degree of lymphocyte infiltration caused by such a systemic disease, the classic manifestation of this disease, because the salivary glands and lacrimal glands are involved, so it causes dry mouth and dry eyes, in fact, the patient is far more than these symptoms, many patients have obvious fatigue, there is a peripheral blood involvement, there is a decline in white blood cells, and a decline in platelets, There are also many patients with low white blood cells for many years, and they don't know that they are such a disease, and there are many patients who have a long period of dry mouth, which has caused the distortion of multiple teeth, the flaky loss of the crown, and a lot of dentures, and they don't know that they are such a disease, and some patients have a purpura-like rash on the lower limbs, which is higher than the skin surface, which is some characteristic manifestations, and often has a secondary osteoporosis, emaciation, diarrhea and pulmonary interstitial fibrosis. There are even some central nervous system involvement, then this is Sjögren's syndrome, its classic manifestations are dry mouth, dry eyes as the main manifestations, once Sjögren's syndrome is diagnosed, long-term follow-up and **.

Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune disease (diffuse connective tissue disease) that occurs in women in the vast majority. About 90% of patients with Sjögren's syndrome are female (repeat), usually middle-aged or older.

The most typical pathological change of Sjögren's syndrome is that it decreases exocrine gland secretion. As a result, some dry symptoms appear in the human eyes, mouth, and gastrointestinal tract, which is the origin of the name of this disease. Dry mouth is the most common manifestation of xerosia, mainly due to the decrease in the secretion of saliva in the mouth, which lacks the moisturizing effect of these saliva.

In severe cases, water and liquid food must be available at the time of eating. After the saliva secretion is reduced, the oral cavity is dry and lacks the action of lysozyme in the saliva, which is extremely easy to breed bacteria, and there will be frequent oral mucosal ulcers and flaky tooth loss and rampant teeth. The tear glands of the eye secrete less tear, and the conjunctiva of the eye lacks the moisture of tears, which can lead to dryness and tingling.

The lack of tear-washing effect of the conjunctiva will cause bacteria to stay and accumulate for too long, causing conjunctival diseases such as conjunctivitis. In patients with Sjögren's syndrome, the mucosa of the digestive tract is also affected, and secretions are less than normal. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as anorexia and digestive disorders may occur.

1. Infection: Infection is one of the most important elements of Sjögren's syndrome, and patients do not pay attention to life care, especially when the temperature changes abnormally, they are prone to colds and other infections, which can easily cause Sjögren's syndrome.

2. Emotional depression: Emotions can affect the health of the human body. If the greater mental stress is not effectively relieved, in the long run, it will cause damage to the body, affect the patient's immunity, and thus cause the onset of Sjogren's syndrome.

3. Hormones or immunosuppressants**: At present, Western medicine**Sjögren's syndrome mostly uses hormones or immunosuppressants, although these drugs decrease rapidly, but they are aimed at the body surface symptoms, resulting in immune dysfunction The imbalance of the body's internal environment has not been improved, and the patient's Sjögren's syndrome will still be **.

4. Blind tonic: Sjogren's syndrome is a chronic immune system disease, and many patients consume a variety of supplements to alleviate the condition by improving their own immunity. But this method is wrong, it is right to improve autoimmunity, but Sjögren's syndrome makes the patient's immune system disordered, correct this disorder, and take appropriate supplements to achieve the purpose of promoting **.

Blind supplementation will not only not alleviate the condition, but may also aggravate the degree of disorder.

Sjögren's syndrome is also one of the most common diseases seen in clinical outpatient clinics, and another common disease in outpatient clinics is undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy. Sjögren's syndrome** is associated with a disorder of immune mechanisms.

The ** of Sjögren's syndrome is still unclear, but it is generally believed to be related to the main infectious factors of viral infection, obvious familial aggregation tendency of the disease in the genetic background, and immune system dysfunction.

Sjögren's syndrome, which is a relatively common autoimmune disease, mainly occurs in menopausal women, children and the elderly. Sjögren's syndrome, which brings serious harm to the patient's life, is active during this period, and it is necessary to take the right care measures. For the latest methods of Sjögren's syndrome, novel biologics can be employed.

Sjögren's syndrome is divided into primary and secondary, and most patients will develop secondary Sjögren's syndrome, which is more common in women than in men. Sjögren's syndrome is a relatively common disease in our lives, and patients will have localized manifestations that cause serious harm to their lives and health. Everyone's condition is different, and the symptoms are different.

In fact, there are many methods of Sjögren's syndrome, and with the development of medical level, according to the cause of Sjögren's syndrome, a new method has been studied, which is a new type of biological agent. New biological agents can reverse the function of glands, and the effect is relatively good. Novel biologics can inhibit cell-dependent activity and regulate the living environment of cells.

Sjögren's syndrome can also be treated in the way of traditional Chinese medicine**. Traditional Chinese medicine is broad and profound, and can be conditioned through the patient's physique, from the inside out**. Moreover, the ***** of traditional Chinese medicine is relatively small, but the time is relatively long, and patients need to be patient!

The specific prescription depends on the doctor's judgment.

For patients with Sjögren's syndrome, the most important thing to pay attention to is to carry out ** under the guidance of a doctor**, no matter which method is used**, and follow the correct method. In the process of **, it is necessary to maintain clean oral hygiene and adopt correct eating habits, so as to alleviate the disease as a whole.
