Is axillary lymph node tuberculosis easy to treat?

It is also quite common to have lymph node tuberculosis in the axilla. If it can be discovered early, the treatment effect is generally good. Therefore, the earlier the discovery, the better the treatment effect. During the treatment process, combined drug treatment is generally adopted, because it is difficult to get good effect with a single drug. Therefore, combined drug treatment, appropriate amount of use and treatment, as well as the patient's usual regular and good living habits, all contribute to the treatment effect.

1. Early stage:

Early diagnosis and early treatment are emphasized for any disease, especially for lung cancer. In order to avoid tissue damage and difficulty in repair, there is inflammatory cell infiltration and fibrin exudation in the alveoli in the early stage, and the alveolar structure remains intact and highly reversible. At the same time, bacteria reproduce vigorously and phagocytes in the body are active. Anti-tuberculosis drugs are most effective in inhibiting and killing bacteria that are metabolically active, growing and reproducing vigorously. Early treatment can help the lesions to be absorbed and disappear without leaving any traces. If minor illnesses are not treated promptly, they may develop into major illnesses, and if major illnesses are not cured, they will harm not only yourself but also those around you.

2. Joint:

Both the first-time and retreatment patients need to use combination therapy. The reason for clinical treatment failure is often that a single drug leads to refractory patients. Combination therapy must involve the use of two or more drugs, which can avoid or delay the development of drug resistance and improve the bactericidal effect. There are both intracellular and extracellular bactericidal drugs, as well as bactericidal drugs suitable for acidic environments, so that the chemotherapy regimen can achieve the best therapeutic effect. It can also shorten the course of treatment and reduce unnecessary economic waste.

3. Appropriate amount:

There must be an appropriate dose of medicine to treat any disease. In this way, the purpose of treatment can be achieved without causing toxic side effects to the human body. Almost all anti-tuberculosis drugs have toxic side effects. For example, if the dosage is too large and the drug concentration in the blood is too high, it can cause toxic reactions to the digestive system, nervous system, urinary system, and especially the liver and lungs. If the dosage is insufficient and the blood concentration is too low, the purpose of breaking and killing bacteria cannot be achieved and drug resistance is likely to occur. Therefore, the medicine should be taken in appropriate dosage and under the guidance of a specialist.

4. Rules:

Be sure to take medication regularly under the guidance of a specialist, because tuberculosis is a stubborn bacterium with a long division cycle, slow growth and reproduction, and is difficult to kill. In treatment, medication must be taken regularly. If it is used improperly and the medication is stopped when the symptoms are relieved, it will inevitably lead to drug resistance and cause treatment failure. Treatment will be more difficult in the future, and you must be meticulous about taking medication regularly, without missing a single meal, and never be complacent.

5. Full process:

The so-called full course of medication means that the doctor determines the chemotherapy plan based on the patient's condition and the time required to complete the chemotherapy plan. One course of treatment is three months. The full course of treatment is one year or one and a half years. Shortened to not less than 6 months or 10 months.
