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 what effective treatments are available for spinal cord lesions?Doctor's answer:
Spinal cord lesions encompass a wide range of conditions. Common spinal cord lesions include myelitis, which is caused by the rampant spread of bacteria and viruses in the spinal cord, leading to a destructive collapse. In the acute phase of treatment, the decision is made between corticosteroids or immunoglobulins. In the later phase of treatment, the focus is primarily on rehabilitation, comprehensive prevention and treatment of urinary tract infections, and the prevention of muscle atrophy to avoid pressure sores and respiratory failure. At the same time, infrared irradiation and muscle massage are used in coordination to enhance functional recovery.
