Patient's question:
I am male, and I am 56 years old. Recently, during a health check-up at my workplace, it was found that I have temporal arteritis. I have been experiencing headaches for two weeks. When the doctor examined me, they performed an MRI and a color Doppler ultrasound, both of which revealed issues. Could you please tell me if it can be resolved?Doctor's answer:
This condition occurs again in elderly patients, with its main symptoms being headaches, neurasthenia, and even the risk of blindness. Therefore, if this disease is diagnosed, it should be actively treated. If this condition is treated actively and effectively, it can be relieved. It is advisable to be hospitalized in a Class III-A hospital for treatment, and it should not be delayed. Active cooperation in treatment is essential.
