Can spinal cord disease be cured? What should you pay attention to in your daily diet

The human spinal cord may be diseased due to congenital developmental abnormalities or various acquired factors (such as trauma, viruses), etc. Spinal cord diseases have different symptoms, such as spinal hemorrhage, contusion, concussion, shock, rupture, etc. Corresponding treatments can be taken according to different symptoms, and dietary adjustments should be actively carried out.

Treatment of spinal cord lesions

Spinal cord disease is damage to the nerves inside the spinal cord due to various reasons, which may lead to serious consequences such as paralysis in patients. Currently, traditional Chinese medicine uses acupuncture, and Western medicine uses drugs or cell penetration repair therapy for treatment.

The cells in the cell penetration repair therapy can migrate to the injured area, survive and proliferate, differentiate into neurons or astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, regenerate nerve cell axons and myelin sheaths, and establish correct and functional synaptic connections; and form new myelin sheaths for the remaining demyelinated nerve fibers and the newly formed nerve fibers, maintain the integrity of nerve fiber function, and restore damaged nerve function; and then assist with systematic rehabilitation exercises to promote the growth and repair of transplanted nerve cells, greatly reduce the occurrence of sequelae and improve the condition of sequelae, and improve the patient's quality of life.

Dietary considerations for patients with spinal cord lesions

Dietary adjustment is very important for patients with spinal cord lesions.

First of all, patients with spinal cord lesions should choose high-protein, high-vitamin and easily digestible foods, pay attention to nutritional matching and proper cooking, and try to improve the patient's appetite so that the nutrition and energy in the patient's diet can meet the body's needs.

Secondly, patients with spinal cord lesions should not take foods that are detrimental to their condition and highly irritating foods, such as chili peppers, especially patients in the acute stage and patients with yin deficiency and hyperactivity of fire.

In addition, you should have cereals, lean meat, fish, eggs, milk, various vegetables and soy products every day, but not too much of each. This is the only way to replenish the various nutrients needed by the body. If you are unable to eat normally in the early stage after surgery, intravenous fluid replacement should be the main treatment. Pay attention to strengthening care and dietary nutrition after surgery to promote the patient's physical recovery.
