Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling uncomfortable with my stomach and intestines, so my wife took me to the hospital to see a doctor. Based on the careful examination results, the doctor said I have inflammatory bowel disease. Since our hospital is a small one, I want to seek treatment at a larger hospital. I'd like to know which hospital is good for treating inflammatory bowel disease?Doctor's answer:
1. General treatment: Reiterate dietary adjustment and nutritional digestion, providing high-nutrient, low-fiber diet. Appropriately administer folic acid, B12, and various other vitamins and trace elements. In cases of abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, anticholinergic drugs or anti-diarrheal drugs may be given when necessary. For patients with split infection, broad-spectrum antibiotics are administered via intravenous route.2. Medication treatment:
(1) Aminosalicylic acid preparations: SASP has certain efficacy in controlling the activity of mild to moderate patients, mainly applicable to cases where inflammation is localized in the colon.
(2) Corticosteroids: The most effective drug for controlling disease activity, suitable for the remission phase of this disease. For highly active cases, aminosalicylic acid preparations or immunosuppressants may be added.
