Initial symptoms of COPD?

summary

Cold air can make the condition of patients with COPD "worse", and many people already know about its basic treatment,. Slow lung resistance is a disease with high incidence rate, high disability rate and high mortality rate. Its mortality rate ranks sixth. According to the latest data, about 2.5 people die from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease every minute. To avoid this, let's talk about the initial symptoms of COPD?.

Initial symptoms of COPD?

First, some COPD patients have definite early symptoms, while others have no symptoms. COPD can be divided into two types: emphysema and bronchitis. Some patients will cough and expectorate at the beginning, and gradually have a sore throat and wheezing. These are the early symptoms of COPD; And some COPD patients have no symptoms in the early stage, and they have no history of disease. Only occasionally they will have shortness of breath when they are tired. When they take chest X-ray and do CT, they will find the phenomenon of pulmonary bullae. At this time, the condition may change to emphysema.

Second: in terms of human physiology, there is a ventilation index for the lung function of adults after 25 years old. With the growth of age, the annual ventilation volume will decrease by 10-20 ml, while the patients with COPD may decrease more. If it is found that the ventilation decreases too much, we should be alert to the possibility of COPD. Regular pulmonary function examination can be carried out as soon as possible. In addition, more than two months of chronic cough, if you can not find the cause, also need to do lung function test to confirm.

Third: the treatment of COPD can be divided into stable stage and acute exacerbation stage. In the acute exacerbation stage, it may need the intervention of doctors, or even hospitalization, and it is better to observe the condition in the hospital; However, in the stable period, if one or two kinds of oral drugs are absorbed every day, the patients will cooperate relatively in a short period of time, but after a long time, the patients' compliance will decline, and they are not willing to cooperate with the treatment. Compared with diabetes and hypertension, the treatment of COPD is more complicated. Because we need to take medicine and test all the year round, and the compliance is not good, the publicity of COPD is not strong, unlike diabetes and hypertension in the community billboards and television, which leads to the patients' insufficient awareness of the treatment of COPD, thus affecting the treatment effect.

matters needing attention

At present, the domestic clinical studies of Fermented Cordyceps sinensis preparation in animal experiments and adjuvant treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis, bronchial asthma, acute exacerbation and remission of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease show that it can significantly reduce the proliferation of goblet cells, thus reducing the secretion of airway mucus, improving lung function, especially long-term oral administration can significantly inhibit the trend of alveolar expansion, The clinical symptoms were relieved obviously. It has the functions of protecting lung and kidney, relieving cough and resolving phlegm, dilating bronchial smooth muscle, enhancing immunity, anti inflammation, anti hypoxia and enhancing adrenal cortex function.
