Not long ago, Wuhan citizen Liu Daddy continued to cough and gasp, and after going to the hospital for examination, he unexpectedly found that he was infected with a disease that is easy to occur in children, let's take a look at what happened.
Recently, Daddy Liu suddenly had symptoms of coughing, phlegm, and wheezing, and for this reason, Daddy Liu always thought that he had accidentally caught a cold and had symptoms of a cold and cough. Despite visiting a nearby clinic, his symptoms have not improved significantly. After coughing persistently for more than two weeks, he went to the hospital for a check-up.
Dr. Lei Jun, deputy director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of the Yangtze River Shipping General Hospital, introduced: There is still an obvious infection foci in the lungs during the examination, and then it is also considering that the patient's first cough has been relatively long, and some antibacterial drugs have not improved, so we also consider whether there will be some special pathogenic bacteria, so we examined him as a respiratory patient, and the result of the examination is a whooping cough.
Pertussis is an acute respiratory infection caused by Borettebacteria pertussis, which is usually more common in infants and young children under the age of three. Its main symptom is a persistent cough. How could Daddy Liu suddenly be infected with a contagious disease that occurs so often in his children? After asking about his medical history, the doctor found that the problem still appeared in Daddy Liu's own body.
Dr. Lei told reporters that the patient was suffering from long-term drinking, and then his resistance was relatively poor, and he had a long-term chronic severe anemia, and his lifestyle habits would lead to a decrease in his immunity. In addition, I usually like to move in some relatively closed and less ventilated positions in the mahjong room, so I don't like to wear masks, so it caused the infection of such a special patient.
Subsequently, the medical team of the hospital's infectious disease department formulated symptomatic comprehensive treatment such as blood transfusion, anti-infection, potassium supplementation, and nutritional rehydration for Daddy Liu. At present, the patient's condition has improved. The doctor reminds that when the seasons change and the epidemic of infectious diseases, people with poor immunity should develop healthy living habits, exercise appropriately, eat lightly, and improve the body's resistance.
Doctor Lei introduced: For some people with poor resistance, especially the elderly, we still have to strengthen the exercise first, then standardize our work and rest, and then properly exercise the respiratory function, and then avoid going to crowded places, and then pay proper attention to indoor ventilation.
