Patient's question:
My father is 72 years old this year. He used to dislike drinking beer. The elderly have never been in good health, and recently, he has been feeling completely weak, eating less at dinner, and not exercising. The day before yesterday, he went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said it was myasthenia gravis, requiring hospitalization for recovery. Hello, how can be completely cured on its own?Doctor's answer:
Myasthenia gravis is generally not self-healing and usually requires long-term medication to suppress the progression of the condition. It is recommended to be hospitalized in the neurology department of a hospital for treatment. The doctor will conduct further examinations based on the symptoms of the elderly, such as cranial magnetic resonance imaging, electromyography, etc., to determine appropriate methods and medications for treatment. It is essential to take medication under the guidance of a doctor in a standardized manner. In daily life, maintain a light diet, avoid spicy, greasy foods, and consume more vegetables, fruits, and vitamin-rich foods. Do not smoke or drink beer.
