Patient's question:
I am 53 years old. Recently, as I have gotten older, I have been experiencing leg pain. I have previously visited the immunology department, but the effect was not significant. I have taken both Chinese and Western medicine, especially when the weather changes, I feel uncomfortable. How should I handle undifferentiated connective tissue disease that has not been diagnosed for ten years?Doctor's answer:
Currently, it is mainly undifferentiated connective tissue disease, which is believed to be a relatively serious condition. It may lead to recurrent lower back pain, joint pain, facial swelling, so the impact on the body is significant. Therefore, active treatment is necessary. Generally, corticosteroid drugs are required for treatment, combined with traditional Chinese medicine and herbal medicine treatment. This helps in controlling the disease. Proper diet should be maintained, and attention should be paid to preventing colds and avoiding exposure to cold.
