Genetic Cystic Fibrosis Need Treatment?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing chest pain and tightness in my chest. The hospital examination suggested a respiratory disease, but the medication hasn't been very effective. Recently, my cough has worsened. I'm asking about treatment for hereditary cystic fibrosis.

Doctor's answer:

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder caused by chromosomal abnormalities, which cannot be completely cured under current medical conditions and is relatively severe. It primarily affects the gastrointestinal and respiratory systems, often characterized by chronic obstructive pulmonary inflammation, pancreatic exocrine dysfunction, and electrolyte disorders. Patients should undergo thorough examinations in reputable public hospitals, primarily receiving symptomatic treatment to improve their quality of life.
