What are the dangers of Parkinson s to the elderly?

Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disease of the nervous system, which usually has an insidious onset and has not been able to do so far, and the harm caused to patients is mainly as follows. First, resting tremor, the patient usually has tremor at the distal upper limb in the resting state, which affects daily life. Second, muscle rigidity and sluggish movements, the patient's voluntary movement is reduced, the action of tying shoelaces and clothing buttons is slow, it is difficult to get up and turn over, it is very difficult for the patient to start and turn when walking, it is laborious to stand up from the sitting and lying position, the whole body is frozen and cannot move during walking, the pace is getting faster and faster after stepping, and the patient is very easy to fall and cause fractures.

Third, patients will also have a loss of smell and sleep disorders, accompanied by limb pain and numbness in the middle and late stages, and some patients will also have restless leg syndrome. Fourth, patients will also experience autonomic dysfunction, such as constipation, excessive sweating, dysphagia, salivation, hyposexuality, and urination disorders.

In the early stage, patients can control their symptoms well through drugs**, and in the middle stage of the disease, although drugs still have a certain effect, they often lead to a decline in the quality of life due to the appearance of sports complications. In the advanced stage of the disease, due to the poor response of the patient to the drug, the symptoms cannot be controlled, the patient may be stiff all over the body, unable to take care of himself, and even bedridden for a long time, and eventually die of pneumonia and other complications.

Parkinson's disease will not only make the patient's limbs unable to move and bedridden, but also affect the patient's face, make the patient's speech slurred, single intonation, drooling, and even lose language function, make the patient depressed, anxious, and thus increase the burden on the family.

Parkinson's disease is not unfamiliar to everyone, this disease generally occurs in elderly patients, many elderly people in Parkinson's disease, there will be walking or talking when it is not very convenient, in life, we should pay attention to the appearance of Parkinson's disease,

Parkinson's is extremely harmful to the elderly, and it will slowly drain people's energy.

Parkinson's can have an impact on the patient's life, and the older you get, the more harmful it becomes. There will be various life difficulties, slow movement, stiffness, trembling, easy to fall when walking, even unable to walk alone, independent life, difficulty in turning over at night, and pneumonia, bedsores, and constipation in advanced patients.

Parkinson's disease is a neurological disease that often appears in middle-aged and elderly people, and the incidence is very high in recent years, which will cause serious harm to the physical and mental health of the elderly, and will gradually lose the motor function of the middle-aged and elderly, and may also cause depression in the elderly. After the occurrence of Parkinson's disease, the elderly should be actively carried out ** and conditioning.

With the increase of age, the probability of middle-aged and elderly people suffering from diseases is getting higher and higher, and many elderly people may have Parkinson's disease, which will also have a great impact on the lives and families of the elderly. Elderly friends should also learn more about Parkinson's disease in their daily life, and the following will introduce the relevant harms of Parkinson's disease, so what are the dangers of Parkinson's disease?

1. Bedridden.

Parkinson's disease generally occurs from one limb to the nearest limb, and as the disease worsens, the muscles of the patient's limbs will atrophy and the joints will stiffen and be bedridden, which will also make the patient unable to take care of himself, which will bring great inconvenience to the patient's life.

2. Depression and anxiety.

Parkinson's disease will cause patients to have inconvenient mobility or bedridden symptoms, which will make patients closed in the house, away from the original familiar circle of work and life, with the aggravation of the disease, the patient's mood will also become very bad, long-term isolation and bad mood, will make patients appear depression and anxiety and other mental and psychological diseases. Patients with Parkinson's disease should not have irritability, anxiety and depression, but should have a positive attitude.

3. Loss of language function.

Parkinson's disease not only immobilizes the patient's limbs, but also affects the patient's face, causing the patient to speak slurred, monotonous, and drooling. If you don't speak for a long time, you will slowly lose your language function.

4. The burden on the family increases.

As Parkinson's disease progresses, patients not only need family care and attention, but also need long-term medication. Even one person cannot take care of the patient completely, which will add a great burden to the patient's family. Family members should not only take care of patients with Parkinson's disease, but also comfort patients more and do not make patients feel bad.

Parkinson's is a typical neurosurgical disease, the elderly are a high incidence of Parkinson's disease, Parkinson's is essentially not a direct threat to the patient's life, so we should not have too much worry about Parkinson's, as long as the patient can actively go to the regular hospital for related diseases, then the improvement of the condition can be guaranteed, the following is an introduction to the dangers of Parkinson's disease in the elderly.

1. Infection. Infection is a threatening complication of Parkinson's disease, and common respiratory infections and fever can aggravate the symptoms of the disease. Elderly Parkinson's patients due to low immune function, colds often occur, and are also prone to bronchitis, pneumonia, gastroenteritis, etc., late bedridden patients, completely lose the ability to take care of themselves, can not sit up independently, and even can not turn over on their own, and malnutrition, ** pressure, often cause bedsores. Pneumonitis, aspiration pneumonia, and heart failure are common complications in patients with advanced disease, which can eventually lead to death.

2. Limb abnormalities.

Limb contractures, deformities, and joint stiffness are mainly seen in the advanced stages of the disease. Therefore, patients in the early and middle stages should be encouraged to exercise more, and patients in the advanced stage should be encouraged to do more passive activities to delay limb complications.

Is Parkinson's harmful to the elderly? Fear of spirit is particularly harmful to the elderly. It's serious. Old man. Difficulty walking, even bed paralysis. Difficulty swallowing, unable to eat.

Parkinson's is very harmful to the elderly, so don't have such a conflict with the elderly recently.

Parkinson's disease is a chronic degenerative disease of the nervous system, and most of the Parkinson's disease occurs in the elderly. For example, general life conditioning, medication** and surgery**. For patients with Parkinson's disease who have developed language dysfunction, swallowing dysfunction, and affect normal eating, nasal cannula feeding or intravenous nutrition can be used for nutritional support**.

At the same time, patients can also do appropriate physical exercise.

1. The mind will be locked and far away from society, and psychological disorders and intellectual impairment are more common in patients with advanced stages, because Parkinson's manifestations are limb tremor stiffness, clumsy movements and lack of facial expressions, so the speech and intonation will be single, the volume will be reduced, drooling, and patients will have different degrees of anxiety and depression;

2. The physical motor function will be gradually lost, and the symptoms of Parkinson's psychosis patients generally start from one side first, and then gradually spread to the opposite limb, and the effect of the drug will also be reduced, and it will become more and more obvious.

3. The burden on the family will gradually increase, and with the aggravation of the condition of Parkinson's patients, the Parkinson's family will face more and more heavy human and economic burdens.

4. The limbs will be stiff and gradually lose their motor function, and with the development of the disease, the tremor and stiffness coordination function will be impaired, and the patient is particularly prone to fall and fall.

The progression of Parkinson's disease is very slow, once the patient has motor symptoms, it will be manifested as slow movement, such as standing up from a chair will be very difficult, or the first step of walking can not be taken, and even the patient's legs are difficult to step on the bicycle when riding a bicycle, which affects the patient's quality of life, making life not as calm and agile as before. Patients with Parkinson's disease present with involuntary resting tremors, which not only aggravate the patient's mobility, but also cause a great psychological burden.

Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disease of the nervous system caused by the loss of dopamine neurons in the brain and a decrease in dopamine levels. Older people are more likely to develop Parkinson's disease than younger people, which may be related to the following factors:

1.Age: As we age, the function of various organs and retractable tissues in the body, including the nervous system, declines. Neurons in the brain gradually degenerate in older people, leading to an increased risk of developing Parkinson's disease.

2.Genetic factors: Genetic factors are considered to be one of the important factors in Parkinson's disease. Older people may be affected by genetic factors such as spikes due to age, which increases the risk of disease.

3.Environmental pollution: Environmental pollution and damage to the nervous system from toxins are also a risk factor for Parkinson's disease. Older people may be more exposed to pollutants and toxins due to longer periods of time, increasing their risk of disease.

4.Other medical conditions: Older adults often have other chronic medical conditions, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, etc., which may increase the risk of Parkinson's disease.

In conclusion, older people are more likely to develop Parkinson's disease, which may be related to a variety of factors such as age, genetic factors, environmental pollution, and other diseases.
