Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended checking with the neurology department. Could you please tell me the treatment methods for mild acute spinal cord inflammation?Doctor's answer:
You have described that you are currently suffering from acute spinal cord inflammation. Further tests are needed to determine whether the spinal cord inflammation is caused by a bacterial infection or is aseptic. There is a difference in treatment medications based on this. It is recommended that the patient undergo a lumbar puncture to examine cerebrospinal fluid and a detailed spinal MRI. If the tests indicate a bacterial infection, antibiotic treatment can be administered. If it is aseptic, hormone-based medications can be used. Additionally, some nerve-nourishing medications should be taken in coordination.
