COPD is a very common chronic disease in China, and many people suffer from respiratory diseases due to the hot and cold climate during the change of seasons. If you have symptoms such as cough, phlegm, wheezing, etc., and it lasts for a month or two, don't think it's just a common cold, it's likely to be a sign of COPD.
Symptoms are insidious and easy to ignore
COPDEarly symptomsVery insidious, often manifesting as:Cough, sputum production, chest tightness, or wheezing after exertionIt is easy to ignore or mistake it for a common cold or cough, or think that a few coughs or walking wheezing are signs of old age, and it is easy to miss the best time, and by the time the diagnosis is made, most patients have progressed to the middle and advanced stages of the disease.
Sixty percent of patients with COPD have difficulty in daily activities
COPD is a chronic lung disease that causes a gradual decline in respiratory function. With the development of the disease, the patient's lung function gradually declines, and symptoms such as cough, sputum production, dyspnea after activity, and wheezing appear, which seriously affect daily life.
For example, survey data shows that 7 out of 10 COPD patients will find it difficult to climb stairs, and 6 people will face difficulties in daily activities.
COPD** cannot be intermittent
The course of COPD is divided into "stable phase" and "acute exacerbation phase".
In the stable period of COPD patients, their disease is still progressing slowly, and lung function will continue to decline.
In addition, patients need to know that the associated costs incurred during acute exacerbations account for 40%-70% of the overall cost of the average patient**, which will greatly increase the financial burden of patients.
COPD** recommended
At present, it is recommended to adopt the principle of "combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, combination of disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation" for COPD, and the effect is remarkable. For patients with acute exacerbation of COPD, Western medicine often uses aerosol inhalation, anti-infection, phlegm, anti-inflammatory and asthmatic; Traditional Chinese medicine has a good effect on relieving asthma and reducing phlegm and improving immunity, so it is usually combined with traditional Chinese medicine to better alleviate symptoms.
The RSD Respiratory Disease Standardization System is developed on the basis of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicineIt is composed of lung cleansing**, drug iontophoresis**, targeted intervention**, deep lung function repair**, biomagnetic immune activation**, autologous cellular immune activation**, etc. It integrates two precise examinations and six characteristic technologies to break through the drawbacks of traditional drugs, "one for a thousand", drug resistance and hormone dependence.
Mr. Zhou has suffered from COPD for many years, and was introduced to the hospital for treatment, after the system**, the cough has been reduced, and he is no longer wheezing, and he can be discharged from the hospital after consolidating **!
The whole course of the disease is combined with internal and external treatment of traditional Chinese and Western medicine to reduce the use of antibiotics and hormonal drugs in patients and reduce the whole body
Pay more attention to the patient's cough, phlegm, asthma and other symptoms, pay more attention to appetite, sleep, urine, mental and physical strength, complexion and other living conditions, and give full play to the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine, which can not only improve the symptoms, but also improve the quality of life.
COPD can be prevented and treated, so it is important to treat it early**
COPD is a disease that can be actively prevented and controlled, early detection and early ** can slow down the onset of COPD, and can also prevent lung damage caused by it. The prevention of COPD mainly pays attention to the following 4 points:
1- Quit smoking completely. Smoking is one of the main culprits of COPD.
2- Keep the indoor air clean. Try to improve room ventilation, install a range hood in the kitchen, avoid second-hand smoke indoors, etc.
3- Prevent colds, add or remove clothing in time according to weather changes.
4- Strengthen exercise and enhance physical fitness.
