Cold dizziness, limb weakness, what medicine to take?

Cold is an upper respiratory infection caused by virus, so the treatment mainly focuses on the treatment of upper respiratory symptoms, antivirus and how to improve the body's resistance and promote early recovery. The breakdown is as follows:

L) symptomatic treatment

(l) The most common way to treat fever is to take antipyretic and analgesic drugs. Such as aspirin 0.3-0.6 g l times, three times a day, half an hour after meals. It should be noted that there are 0.3 g L tablets and 0.5 g L tablets. Enteric-coated tablets are 0.3g L tablets; ② Compound aspirin tablets (also called antipyretic and analgesic tablets, abbreviated as APC): containing aspirin (0.m g), phenacetin (0. 162g) and caffeine (0.035g), L-2 tablets each time, three times a day; ③ Compound chlorpheniramine tablets (also known as chlorpheniramine tablets); Contains aspirin (0.2268g), phenacetin (0. 162g), caffeine (0.324g), chlorpheniramine (0.002g), L-2 tablets, l times, three times a day; An Naijin: 0.25-0.5g I time, three times a day.

It should be reminded that the dosage of the above drugs is for adults, and children should reduce it. In addition, the cooling of the above drugs is mostly achieved by sweating (also known as "relieving exterior syndrome" in Chinese medicine). Therefore, the drug should not be used too hard to prevent excessive sweating, leading to collapse and even blood pressure drop, which is particularly important for the elderly and the weak.

In addition to drug cooling, physical cooling can also be used. Commonly used methods are: ① Alcohol bath, in which 30%-50% alcohol is used to gently rub the patient's neck, chest, armpit, upper limbs, palm and back, groin, lower limbs, instep and instep. 15- 30 minutes each time. The advantage of alcohol rubbing bath is mild, unlike drug cooling, which is difficult to control and has side effects, and can be carried out at any time; ② Cold compress: A cold towel or ice cap is usually placed on the patient's head, and an ice pack can also be placed in the armpit or groin.

(2) The main purpose of cough treatment is to eliminate phlegm and relieve bronchospasm. Commonly used methods are: ① 3% brown mixture containing ammonium chloride, each time 10 ml, three times a day; ② Kebiqing Citrate: 25mg/ time, 3 times a day. In addition, there is syrup, each branch 100 ml contains 0.25 g cabetapentane, and the dosage is 100 ml, l times, three times a day; ③ Oxygen can be humidified frequently in the hospital, which has a good effect on cough and shortness of breath; ④ codeine phosphate: codeine, also known as methyl morphine, has a strong antitussive effect, and is generally only used for severe irritating dry cough, 15-30 mg l times, three times a day, but the dosage per time should not exceed 0. 1 g, and 0.25 g per day.

(3) Nasal congestion, runny nose and tears can be treated with local vasoconstrictor 1% ephedrine nasal drops, 2-4 drops each time, 3-4 times a day.

(4) Throat swelling and pain containing lysozyme tablets, L- two tablets/time, 4-6 times a day; Or l-2 tablets containing iodine, 3-4 times a day, or l-2 tablets containing mint, 4 times a day.

2) Antiviral therapy

Triazole nucleoside has certain inhibitory effect on respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza virus and adenovirus. The oral dosage was 1.0g, 1 day. In addition, 5 mg/ml triazole nucleoside solution can obviously shorten the course of disease.

Besides ribavirin, amantadine also has antiviral effect, 100mg/ time, twice a day.

Local use of interferon ultrasonic atomization inhalation or nasal drops can also achieve good results.

3) General support treatment

Although this is a non-specific measure, practice has proved that these measures are helpful to restore the body's resistance, relieve symptoms and promote early recovery. These include: bed rest, reducing physical activity, keeping warm and indoor ventilation, drinking more water, eating liquid or semi-liquid and nutritious diet, eating fresh fruit properly, quitting smoking and drinking, etc.

Fifteen methods of non-drug prevention and treatment of colds

Cold is a common and frequently-occurring disease. So far, there is no specific treatment, so we can only treat it symptomatically and let it gradually heal itself. This paper introduces several peculiar therapies, which readers may wish to try.

1, drink chicken soup

Two clinical medical centers in the United States reported that drinking chicken soup can inhibit inflammation of the throat and respiratory tract, and is extremely effective in eliminating symptoms such as stuffy nose, runny nose, cough and sore throat caused by colds. Because chicken contains a variety of essential amino acids, it is nutritious and can significantly enhance the body's resistance to cold viruses. Chicken also contains some special chemicals, which can enhance the blood circulation in the pharynx and the secretion of nasal liquid, and play a very good role in protecting the respiratory tract, removing respiratory viruses and accelerating the recovery of colds.

Step 2 eat more radishes

Practice has proved that carotene in radish has a unique role in preventing and treating colds. The specific method is to chop sweet, crisp and juicy radish, squeeze out half a teacup juice, mash ginger, squeeze out a small amount of ginger juice, add sugar or honey, mix well, and then pour it into boiling water as a drink, three times a day for two days, which can clear away heat and toxic materials, dispel cold and prevent colds.

3. Drink sugar, ginger and tea together

Because colds are mostly caused by exogenous wind and cold, there are often symptoms such as headache, stuffy nose, runny nose and joint pain, and even chills and fever. You can make soup with proper amount of brown sugar, ginger and black tea, 1-2 times a day, which can not only warm your body and dispel cold, but also have a good effect on preventing and treating colds.

4. Eat less salt

Experiments show that eating less sodium salt can increase the content of lysozyme in saliva, protect the epithelial cells of mouth and throat, and make them secrete more immunoglobulin A and interferon to deal with cold virus. Therefore, controlling the daily salt content within 5 grams is of great benefit to the prevention and treatment of colds.

5. Take honey for example.

Honey contains a variety of bioactive substances, which can stimulate the immune function of human body. Taking it twice every morning and evening can effectively treat and prevent viral diseases such as colds.

6. Take yeast for example

Professor dasgupta of the University of California, USA, found in the experiment that the yeast for making bread contains a component that can prevent the cold virus from propagating and spreading in human cells, and can treat the common cold, but it is ineffective for influenza.

7. Eat more condiments

According to the research of the University of Wisconsin, ginger and dried pepper can help people to expel cold virus, relieve cough and resolve phlegm. The American Institute for Cancer Research recently revealed that garlic can enhance the immune function of the human body. Add more seasoning when cooking, which can make the cold recover early.

8, vinegar nasal drops, fumigation

Dilute vinegar with cold boiled water, and make it into 5%- 10% solution for nasal drip, 4-6 times a day, and drop 2-3 drops into each nostril, which has good curative effect on treating cold and influenza. Especially in the early stage of a cold, the curative effect is better. Vinegar can kill the cold virus lurking in the nasopharynx. During the cold epidemic, vinegar nasal drops have a reliable preventive effect. In addition, vinegar fumigation can also treat colds, that is,100g of vinegar is fumigated on the stove, which not only makes the room smell immediately, but also makes vinegar molecules float in the air, killing indoor cold viruses and effectively preventing colds. During the cold epidemic, it is best to fumigate vinegar 1-2 times a day.

9. rub your hands

Because the thumb root (medically called thenar) is rich in muscles, the palm of your hand stretches out and stands out obviously, occupying a large area of your palm. The thenar is closely related to the respiratory organs. Rubbing every day is of great benefit to improving the constitution that is prone to colds. The method is: rub the thenar with both hands until it is hot. Rubbing is like rubbing the skin of a peanut with your palm. One hand is fixed, turn the thenar of the other hand, and alternate hands up and down. Two thenar rubbing in opposite directions, about one to two minutes, the whole palm will be hot. Doing so can promote blood circulation and strengthen the body's metabolism, so it can enhance physical fitness, so it is not easy to catch a cold.

10, massage nose

Make a fist with your hands slightly, and massage the sides of your nose up and down with the back of your flexed thumb. Massage 15-30 times every morning and evening, with local redness and fever as the degree. One method can improve the blood circulation of the nose, promote the secretion of mucosal cells, and expel cold virus and its harmful metabolites through the "directional swing" of cilia.

1 1, acupoint massage

Massage acupoints such as nasal passage, Xiang Ying and runny nose with thumb, forefinger and middle finger (with one finger), and then rub the cold sensitive areas on both sides of the nasal cavity from Xiang Ying to Tang Yin with the muscle area around the fishbone point. Massage Yongquan point and the foot center until they get hot, so that the meridians in these two parts are unobstructed and the qi and blood run normally. This can prevent the cold from invading and keep the enemy out.

12, acupuncture therapy

Acupuncture in our country is quite effective for colds. Going to acupuncture as soon as possible when catching a cold can immediately relieve stuffy nose and headache, and make the elevated body temperature gradually return to normal after a day and night. Because acupuncture enhances the immune function in the body through the regulation of meridians, the curative effect is reliable. Effective acupoints for treating cold are Shangxing, Tang Yin, Fengchi, Xiang Ying, Hegu and Waiguan. Leave the needle 15 minutes, once a day, usually 2-3 times to cure.

13, sleep more.

Researchers at Harvard Medical School found that when people sleep, bacteria in the body can produce a substance called "muramic acid", which can enhance human immunity and accelerate the recovery from colds and other viral diseases. Therefore, it is suggested that sleep is also a treatment, especially for colds.

14, breathing steam

Put a cup of boiling water in a big cup, bend your face over it, and do deep breathing exercises against the rising hot air until the water in the cup is cold, several times a day. This method is effective in treating colds, especially the first cold.

15, wash your face in cold water

This method generally begins in summer and continues into autumn and winter to enhance its suitability. Washing your face with cold boiled water every morning and evening can increase the blood circulation of your face, improve your ability to resist diseases and cold, and thus prevent colds.
