How is tuberculosis treated

summary

If you have pulmonary tuberculosis, many people can only avoid it. The causes of pulmonary tuberculosis hemoptysis are mostly exudation and cavity lesions, or bronchial deformation, distortion and expansion caused by bronchial tuberculosis and local tuberculosis lesions. So share how to treat tuberculosis.

How is tuberculosis treated

First, the patients with hemoptysis should be treated with antituberculosis therapy. The patients with moderate or massive hemoptysis should be actively stopped bleeding, keep the airway unobstructed, and pay attention to prevent asphyxia and hemorrhagic shock. The general hemostatic drugs to improve the coagulation mechanism are not ideal for massive hemoptysis due to pulmonary tuberculosis.

Second: the focus or cavity into the chest, chest common exudate liquid, can form liquid pneumothorax, purulent pneumothorax. For closed pneumothorax, the patients with lung compression less than 20% and no obvious dyspnea can be treated with conservative therapy.

Third: secondary pulmonary infection: pulmonary tuberculosis cavity (especially fibrous cavity), pleural hypertrophy, bronchiectasis caused by tuberculosis fibrous lesions, atelectasis and airway obstruction caused by bronchial tuberculosis are the pathological basis of other bacterial infections secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis.

matters needing attention

In the diagnosis of secondary infection, we should comprehensively analyze the changes of body temperature, local sounds, the character and quantity of sputum, and the results of peripheral hemogram, sputum bacterial culture, as well as the pathological basis of the lung, and distinguish it from the high body temperature and peripheral hemogram in the acute stage of pulmonary tuberculosis. Gram negative bacilli are the most common pathogens in bacterial infection.
