Patient's question:
I am using hormone tablets to treat optic neuritis. My eyesight has improved, but I have a low fever and a slight cold. What kind of fever-reducing medicine can I take?Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Optic neuritis or papilledema refers to the inflammation of any part of the optic nerve. Clinically, based on the location of onset, optic neuritis is divided into two types: intraorbital and retrobulbar.Recommendations: Treatment targeting the underlying cause is the primary approach. Appropriate corticosteroids should be administered promptly. If delayed, the effectiveness becomes limited in the middle and late stages, and neurotrophic or blood-activating and blood-vessel-expanding medications should be given instead.
