The treatments for fast-growing non-tuberculous mycobacteria include general treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment.
1. General treatment: it is necessary to pay attention to bed rest, symptomatic treatment of fever and pain relief, etc., but also to strengthen the nutrition.
2. Drug treatment: the main drugs include rifampicin, doxycycline, tobramycin and amoxicillin clavulanate potassium.
3. Surgical treatment: If the patient receives internal surgery treatment is ineffective, surgical treatment can be considered as an auxiliary means of treating this disease. If the lymph nodes are inflamed, the entire lymph node mass needs to be removed; if a fistula is formed as well as a skin lesion, it needs to be removed as well.
In addition, the use of these drugs carries certain risks, and patients need to be guided by a specialist and not apply them without authorization.
