Drug use can bring infectious diseases

  In the mid-1990s, drug addiction went from a literal concept to a reality around us. At that time, we both feared and hated it, and were threatened from time to time by drug addicts who wanted to forcibly prescribe Dulcolax, and sometimes admitted patients who were poisoned by overdose, but we did not yet fully understand the series of hazards brought about by drug addiction. How harmful drug use is to human health! Here’s what I have to say about the infections caused by drug use and the benefits of drug abuse!  Drug addiction can cause which infections (infectious) disease: 1, skin and soft tissue infections: drug addiction can lead to a significant decline in the body’s immunity, coupled with drug users do not pay attention to personal hygiene, especially intravenous drug users, injection syringes, needles, solvents, drugs, injection sites are not seriously disinfected, it is easy to cause local skin and soft tissue septic infection, remember Pingxiang just began to implement free treatment of AIDS, see I remember when Pingxiang first started to implement free AIDS treatment, it was incredible to see deep subcutaneous sinus tracts in the hands and feet of many patients, but nowadays it is commonplace!  2, sepsis, sepsis, infectious shock: some drug users, mainly intravenous drug users, infected with bacteria some fever, generalized weakness, etc. not noticed or ignored, later will appear high fever, generalized extreme weakness, skin, urine deep yellow stain, great sweating, coma, etc., sometimes bystanders or 120 emergency center sent to the hospital, after the physician examination, found that the patient is already sepsis, sepsis or even The patient is in shock, some of them can survive after resuscitation, and some of them may die by crane!  3, venereal disease: drug addicts early may appear excited, resulting in confusion of sexual behavior, and some drug addicts also through the sex trade to obtain drug money, so syphilis, gonorrhea, condyloma acuminata, herpes and other venereal diseases are high, and even a variety of venereal diseases coexist, resulting in more infections, great harm!  4, blood-borne diseases: mainly hepatitis B, hepatitis C, AIDS, etc., the three diseases have the same transmission route, drug use before the emergence of hepatitis B common in China, drug use, especially after the spread of intravenous drug use, the incidence of hepatitis B, hepatitis C, AIDS, etc. has increased significantly, can be alone, more mixed, making the increase in patients with cirrhosis, more mortality has increased!  5, rare infectious diseases occur or the resurgence of tuberculosis: at the end of last year we admitted a couple who had tetanus one after another, although after active rescue, but the couple still ascended together! For the resurgence of tuberculosis, an infectious disease that was once under control, drug use is to blame!  6, the occurrence of opportunistic infections: originally some pathogenic bacteria that live peacefully with humans such as fungi, Yersinia pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, etc. because of drug use and displacement or destruction of the skin mucosal barrier and cause opportunistic infections, often seen in the clinic, the last two years also admitted patients with bacterial endocarditis, heart valve flab, so we medical staff can be vigilant!  These are the ones we have seen clinically, and there may be those who have not seen or not diagnosed, and will face more challenges in the future!  Then anti-drug not only can reduce crime, but also can avoid or reduce the occurrence of organism organ dysfunction, and avoid the occurrence of the above infectious diseases, for the country and the people are good! Therefore, anti-drug is really necessary!
