What is the treatment for bone tuberculosis?

Tuberculosis is a very common disease in modern medicine. It is also a stubborn disease that humans have just conquered. Tuberculosis is an ancient disease that has caused the deaths of countless people since ancient times. In the past, contracting tuberculosis meant death, and there are many types of tuberculosis. Among them, pulmonary tuberculosis and bone tuberculosis are two more common manifestations. Bone tuberculosis is more severe. It can directly cause bone necrosis and make people lose various mobility. The treatment of bone tuberculosis is much more difficult than pulmonary tuberculosis. Let’s take a look at how to treat bone tuberculosis.

Vitamins and inorganic salts play a great role in promoting recovery from tuberculosis. Among them, vitamin A can enhance the body's disease resistance; vitamins B and C can improve various metabolic processes in the body, increase appetite, and improve the functions of tissues such as the lungs and blood vessels; if there are patients with repeated hemoptysis, they should also increase their iron supply, eat more green leafy vegetables, fruits and whole grains, and supplement a variety of vitamins and minerals.

Patients with bone tuberculosis have a particularly poor appetite. In order to increase their appetite, you can work hard on cooking, making the food diverse and having good color, aroma, taste and shape. If conditions permit, in addition to three main meals a day, two additional snacks can be added. Avoid irritating foods and foods that are spicy and dry and produce phlegm. Because tuberculosis is a wasting disease, in addition to using medication and diet adjustments, you should also pay attention to adequate rest and appropriate outdoor activities.

Patients with bone tuberculosis can also eat more seafood, such as seaweed, deep-sea fish, prawns, etc. Marine life has high nutritional value. Tests have found that every 100 grams of shrimp meat contains 20.6 grams of protein, as well as fat, ash, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamins and riboflavin. The body also contains tropomyosin and paramyosin. Therefore, it is not only a precious delicacy, but also has the functions of nourishing the kidney and strengthening yang, nourishing yin and strengthening bones, and calming the nerves.
