Patient's question:
I would like to inquire about the treatment for Buerger's disease. Here's the situation: I previously had a case of vasculitis, but it wasn't occlusive. Now I've developed it again, and I don't know how serious this occlusive vasculitis is or how to treat it.Doctor's answer:
Buerger's disease is more severe. It can cause blood flow interruption in limbs. Additionally, Buerger's disease is a widespread inflammatory condition. Once a blood vessel becomes inflamed, collateral circulation may also repeatedly become inflamed, making it difficult to establish collateral circulation. Buerger's disease must be treated actively. If arterial obstruction occurs, it can lead to limb suppuration and affect quality of life.
