Current research suggests that the best treatments for pneumoconiosis are removal from the dust environment, oral medications, and lung lavage.
1. Removal from dust environment: The first and foremost treatment for pneumoconiosis patients is to remove themselves from the dust environment immediately, quit smoking, including second-hand smoke, and prevent colds, respiratory tract and lung infections.
2. Oral medication: we can choose HANDFENGJI METHYL and DOXOTHALENE, which have the effect of weakening the function of cellular collagen synthesis, loosening the collagen fibers of the lungs and their degradation, and have been used in the treatment of pneumoconiosis for a long time.
3. Lung lavage: lung lavage can flush the sputum and secretions retained in the respiratory tract, and both dust and fibrotic cytokines in the lungs can be discharged with it, which can effectively improve lung function.
The 2018 Pneumoconiosis Expert Consensus concluded that in the absence of serious complications, lung transplantation has little impact on life expectancy, and therefore lung transplantation is no longer considered an option for pneumoconiosis treatment. Pneumoconiosis treatment focuses on health management and comprehensive individualized treatment.
If you suffer from pneumoconiosis, you should seek medical treatment in time and under the guidance of professional physicians, actively carry out standardized treatment so as not to delay your condition.
