What is demyelinating disease

Demyelinating diseases are quite harmful to human beings. They are prone to acute attacks and can cause damage to the central nervous system. If treatment is delayed, it can lead to secondary ischemia of the nerves, often leading to multiple sclerosis, which seriously affects the health of the patient's brain nerve nuclei. In the early stages, hormones should be used for treatment in a timely manner, but sometimes the effect is often unsatisfactory, and the condition may even worsen.

Treatment of demyelinating diseases

1. In the early stage, use hydrocortisone 100-200 mg or dexamethasone 5-10 mg intravenous drip once a day. After 7-10 days, if the condition stabilizes, change to oral prednisone 30 mg. The dosage can be gradually reduced as the condition improves. 2. 20% mannitol 250ml intravenous drip once a day for dehydration, 706 generation plasma 500ml intravenous drip once a day to improve spinal cord microcirculation. 3. Give large doses of B vitamins and neurotrophic drugs such as citicoline. 4. Appropriately choose antibiotics to prevent respiratory and urinary tract infections. 5. Turn over and pat your back regularly to prevent bedsores. Strengthen functional exercises of the affected limb to prevent limb deformities.

Care methods

1. Avoid triggers: Trauma, fatigue, excitement, upper respiratory tract infection and other infections can induce aggravation and recurrence of the disease, so try to avoid them. Pregnancy can accelerate the progression of the disease, so women should avoid pregnancy for at least two years after an attack. 2. During the acute attack or relapse period: ① Rest in bed to help relieve the symptoms. ② Give appropriate passive exercises to the paralyzed limbs to prevent joint stiffness and pain. ③ Bedridden patients in the late stage should be turned over frequently and given skin care. Follow-up examination: Patients should go to the hospital for follow-up examinations regularly to understand whether their condition has progressed so that appropriate treatment can be given. You can take Naoyizhi Capsules while taking Western medicine, which is beneficial to the treatment, improvement and recovery of the disease.
