What is better treatment method of myasthenia gravis

Treatment 1: early use of anticholinesterase drugs can relieve symptoms in patients with myasthenia gravis. If the effect of such drugs alone is not good, glucocorticoid or methylprednisolone can be combined. According to literature reports, early use of glucocorticoid may prevent the transformation from ocular myasthenia gravis to systemic myasthenia gravis, but exact evidence is still needed.

Treatment 2: systemic myasthenia gravis patients treated with anti cholinesterase drugs alone often can not achieve the therapeutic effect, glucocorticoid should be added or combined with azathioprine, cyclosporine A and other immunosuppressants. Severe cases need high-dose methylprednisolone impact. If the symptoms can not be improved after methylprednisolone impact, consider high-dose gamma globulin impact.

Treatment 3: some patients with generalized myasthenia gravis may have transient aggravation in the process of high-dose methylprednisolone impact. In severe cases, they even need tracheal intubation or tracheotomy, and the change of condition should be closely observed.

matters needing attention

This disease needs attention: lower limb muscle weakness exercise should pay attention to grasp the amount of exercise. When exercising, people often choose dumbbell, sandbag, spring and rubber band. So, how many dumbbells, sandbags and what kind of spring and rubber band are suitable? This should be based on the muscle strength of each person, generally more than 2 / 3 of his maximum muscle strength. For example, use maximum force to lift 6 kg sandbags, and gradually increase the weight of sandbags. If the original muscle strength is too weak to lift the affected limb itself, then when exercising, in addition to the affected limb itself, it also needs external force to help.
