Symptoms of vasculitis

Perhaps everyone has noticed the pulse beating in his or her own or someone else's hand. Careful people will find that the pulse beating has its own characteristics and is regular. But few people notice that our neck also beats. In fact, that is also a kind of pulse, but it is often ignored. The beating of the pulse is the guarantee of our body's survival, so generally everyone will protect their pulse well.

Of course, the beating of the pulse will also affect the arteries and veins in the body, and conversely, the arteries and veins will also have a certain impact on the pulse. Sometimes due to bacterial or viral infection, the human body's arteries and veins may show some symptoms, such as vasculitis. So what are the symptoms of vasculitis? Let me introduce them one by one below.

Vasculitis is one of the difficult diseases in the medical field today. Although the incidence rate is low, it causes the greatest harm to humans and has the highest disability rate. It is generally believed that only active and effective treatment in the early stage can avoid the pain of amputation. In the later stage of the disease, not only will the patient suffer great pain, but the cost will also be high and the amputation rate will be high. To better prevent and treat vasculitis

Symptoms of vasculitis: The early symptoms of vasculitis are generally not easy to detect, such as coldness, even coldness and numbness of one side of the limbs. Intermittent claudication (i.e. after walking for a distance, you feel swollen and painful calves, and are forced to stop for a while before continuing to walk, and then the pain recurs). These symptoms can last for years and are often misdiagnosed as diseases such as rheumatism. The main symptom in the middle stage is pain, especially severe pain at night, which seriously affects sleep. In the later stages, toe necrosis will occur, and if it is not effectively treated, it will lead to amputation.

Nursing measures for vasculitis:

1. In daily life and work, pay attention to protecting your limbs and avoid bruises, punctures, crushing or abrasions.

2. Wash your feet frequently with warm water and medicated soap, then dry them with a clean soft towel. Remove moisture and dirt between the toes and keep them clean and dry.

3. Do not wash your feet with cold or overheated water. Cold can cause vasoconstriction and spasm, aggravating the condition, and overheating can also promote the progression of the disease.

4. In winter, you should pay attention to keeping warm, wear soft, warm and suitable long cotton socks or cotton gloves, and try to avoid staying and working outdoors for a long time. Shoes and socks must be comfortable, of appropriate size, and not too tight to avoid compression of the feet and affecting blood circulation in the limbs.

5. When trimming nails, be especially careful not to cut too deep, but to trim them evenly. If you encounter nails that are too hard or too brittle, it is best to soak them in warm water to soften them before trimming them.

Although vasculitis is quite complicated to treat, current medicine still has ways to treat it. During treatment, patients are also required to have a positive attitude and a certain degree of confidence in curing vasculitis. Only in this way can our patients and friends strive to cure vasculitis in the shortest time possible, in exchange for a healthy pulse and a healthy body.
