summary

Recently, I saw a colleague's hands always shaking, as if he couldn't hold anything. It was very strange. Later, I learned that he had to be called Parkinson's disease, and now he has resigned to go home to recuperate. Now let's talk about what Parkinson's disease is.

What is Parkinson's disease

First: Parkinson's disease is a common degenerative disease of the nervous system in the middle-aged and old people. It is generally manifested as tremor, static tremor, drooling, cough, muscle stiffness, slow movement and other symptoms. Patients can take physical therapy plus traditional Chinese medicine treatment, with good curative effect, small side effects and no dependence.

Second: Parkinson's disease is a chronic and progressive disease. The most typical symptoms are involuntary shaking of hands and feet (tremor), stiffness of limbs and trunk (myotonia), slow movement or decreased movement. Of course, different Parkinson's patients may focus on different symptoms.

Third: drug therapy is the main treatment for Parkinson's disease. Levodopa is still the most effective drug. Surgical treatment is an effective supplement to drug therapy. Rehabilitation treatment, psychotherapy and good nursing can also improve the symptoms to a certain extent. At present, the main treatment is to improve symptoms, but it can not prevent the progress of the disease.

matters needing attention

Parkinson's disease has a general chance to be inherited to the next generation. For Parkinson's disease, appropriate Chinese medicine can be used to treat and recuperate, so as to improve the condition. In addition, patients should develop good living and eating habits, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease.
