Diagnostic basis of myasthenia gravis

summary

I have had myasthenia gravis for several years. At the beginning, it was not particularly serious, but later it became more and more serious. Some places have been a little difficult to use, and now it has been cured. Today I would like to share with you the diagnosis basis of myasthenia gravis.

Diagnostic basis of myasthenia gravis

Symptom 1: extraocular muscle involvement: ptosis, diplopia, strabismus, eye movement disorders on one or both sides of the most frequently affected muscle. It can be seen that the eyelid of the patient can not be raised, or one eye is big and the other is small.

Symptom 2: facial muscle involvement: common smile face, facial weakness, known as "mask like face.". It is difficult to close eyes, blow air and chew when eating, especially when eating hard and dry food.

Symptom 3: limb muscle involvement: when the upper limb muscle is involved, the two arms are unable to lift up, and it is difficult to brush the hair and teeth; when the lower limb is involved, the two legs are weak and weak when going up and down the stairs, and it is easy to get tired when walking, so it is necessary to rest before moving forward. When walking, the weakness of the legs is more obvious, and the patient's feet are weak when lifting off the ground, especially easy to trip.

matters needing attention

Here I would like to remind you that the treatment of myasthenia gravis is a long process. In this process, patients have to suffer from pain all the time, so we need to do some daily nursing to help them recover, reduce their pain and distract their attention. Of course, there are many things to pay attention to in the process of nursing, and the details are decided Success or failure.
