Nitroglycerin ointment

As we all know, nitroglycerin ointment is an important prescription drug currently used to treat pain associated with chronic anal fissures. It plays a great role in treating anal fissures and alleviating patients' pain. Regarding the treatment of anal fissure, experts say that there are currently two main mainstream methods: one is surgical treatment, and the other is drug treatment, and the drug is mainly nitroglycerin ointment.

Data shows that many patients use nitroglycerin ointment to apply locally. After a period of time, the pain disappearance rate can reach more than 90%. It can be seen that nitroglycerin ointment is very effective. So, what diseases is nitroglycerin ointment effective for? What is the method of use? Let's take a look:

Ureteral stones: Apply 2% nitroglycerin ointment to the patient's upper arm or outer thigh three times a day. Combined with drinking more water and skipping rope, it has a better effect in treating urinary stones.

Relieve stubborn pain in elderly diabetic patients: There are reports that elderly patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy who applied 2% nitroglycerin ointment to the skin of the extremities experienced significant pain relief and improved sleep after taking the medicine.

Raynaud's disease: Raynaud's syndrome refers to paroxysmal spasms of the extremity arteries. It often occurs under the influence of cold stimulation or emotional excitement, and manifests as intermittent changes in the color of the skin of the extremities, such as paleness, cyanosis, and flushing. Generally, it is more serious in the upper limbs and occasionally in the lower limbs.

Method: Apply 2% nitroglycerin ointment topically, 4 to 6 times a day, leaving it on for 1 hour each time and then wipe it dry. Clinical use can significantly reduce the frequency of Raynaud's syndrome attacks, and significantly alleviate numbness and pain.

Scleroderma is an autoimmune disease characterized by localized or diffuse skin thickening and fibrosis, which can affect multiple systems such as the heart, lungs, kidneys, and digestive tract. The skin of scleroderma patients becomes hardened, thickened and atrophied. Depending on the extent of the skin lesions and the areas affected, the disease can be divided into two types: localized and systemic. Scleroderma is a disease characterized by localized or chronic fibrosis or sclerosis of connective tissue of the skin and internal organs, and eventually atrophy.

Method: Localized scleroderma can be treated with 2% nitroglycerin ointment, with an effective rate of over 72%.

Experts remind: If some mild headaches occur during use, it is a common phenomenon after using nitroglycerin ointment. After a period of use, the condition should be alleviated. Of course, a small number of people may experience severe or persistent headaches. If this is the case, you can reduce some medications appropriately, or consult a doctor. Do not continue to use it when the headache persists and is relatively severe. Some people who are prohibited from using it should also follow the doctor's instructions and be responsible for their own health.
