Problem description:
My mother got tuberculosis last year. After she didn't feel better, she began to cough again recently. After going to the hospital for treatment, she is much better, but I still want to help my mother recuperate to prevent recurrence in the future. Please help us make suggestions on how to adjust in all aspects. The more specific, the better. Thank you very much
Analysis:
If it is not found, it will heal itself, that is, calcification is found in the lungs. Of course, it also means that I have had tuberculosis. But it also shows the good side, that is, the patient's resistance is good. But this situation should be avoided in the future.
What should be done is:
1, pay attention to nutrition; Because tuberculosis is a chronic consumptive disease, special attention should be paid to the supplement of nutrition, which requires reasonable nutrition collocation and good absorption. Fruits, vegetables, fresh milk, eggs, fish and lean meat, and digestible staple foods are all necessary. Ensure the intake of multivitamins and other trace elements.
2. Have a good rest; Rest as much as possible during illness and recovery, and don't do manual labor. But there are still some small activities. Because tuberculosis is a chronic disease, plus the age of the patient, it takes a long time to recover, even after recovery, we must ensure adequate rest.
3, in a good mood; When patients with any disease are in a happy mood, the course of disease will be shortened and the condition will be alleviated. On the contrary, it will prolong the illness and aggravate it. This is especially true for tuberculosis patients.
4. medication; If you are in the course of the disease, you should also take anti-tuberculosis drugs according to your doctor's advice. If you have a bad appetite, you should also consider the supplementary intake of multivitamins.
Today, tuberculosis is almost as incurable as it was half a century ago. As long as your mother's tuberculosis is not an open focus, it is also called lung cavity, accompanied by hemoptysis. General infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis is not difficult to be cured by current medical means. Coupled with the excellent living conditions, the care of family members and the care of your daughter, I believe your mother has all the sufficient rehabilitation conditions for her to embark on a healthy road again.
