Parkinson's disease is a chronic and progressive disease, and its initial symptoms are relatively insidious, which can easily lead to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. In the early stages, patients may present with symptoms such as hand tremors and slight stiffness in the joints of the limbs. In addition, factors such as olfactory dysfunction and cerebral thrombosis may also induce Parkinson's disease.
Parkinson's disease usually lasts longer than 10 years, and people from the age of 40 to 70 are at risk. The rate of progression varies widely, with some patients progressively deteriorating over decades and others severely affected within a few years, gradually losing their ability to take care of themselves.
Parkinson's disease is the most common ** is mainly drugs, Parkinson's is a long-term disease, so patients may have to face long-term cycle medication, in the process of long-term face of the disease, need to keep taking drugs, and the drug itself is strong and long-term medication caused by the "switch phenomenon" also makes many patients miserable.
So, what is the "on-off phenomenon" of Parkinson's medication?
An Xiuyan explained: The on-off phenomenon refers to a special phenomenon in the process of drug for patients with Parkinson's disease. This phenomenon manifests as a sudden worsening of the patient's symptoms, followed by rapid improvement in a short period of time, like a switch that sometimes turns on and sometimes off. This unavoidable change in symptoms makes the patient's condition complex and difficult to manage, seriously affecting their daily life.
Parkinson's disease has the characteristics of "insidious onset" and "diverse symptoms", which leads to many patients not paying attention to it in the early stage. As the condition continues to progress, by the time the patient perceives symptoms, it may have progressed to the intermediate stage. Therefore, for Parkinson's disease, early detection and ** are crucial.
An Xiuyan added: Parkinson's patients need to maintain a balanced diet, eat more high-fiber and nutritious foods to improve physical fitness. Proper exercise can also help patients cope better with the disease.
