A patient’s family, when calling a doctor for consultation, asked a question about a prescription. It was said that there was a very effective prescription in hand, which was boiled with several kinds of herbs and then the wound affected area was rinsed with medicinal water. But the effect is not good, the patient’s wound decay more powerful, asked how we can improve the prescription? Is there a better prescription? My thought is that this patient must think that diabetic foot, relying on some kind of prescription or secret recipe! How else could it all be about amputation? To tell you this, not only do we not have a prescription, but everyone can’t have one, because it’s impossible! The treatment of diabetic foot needs to be a systematic and comprehensive treatment. What is a comprehensive treatment? The main aspects of treatment are as follows: First, the treatment of blood sugar, blood pressure and blood lipids. These are the earliest underlying diseases, and controlling them smoothly is also the foundation. But do not make the mistake of thinking that the wound may get better only if it is controlled. There is a causal relationship between them, but not a necessary one. Second, improve the overall body condition. Like some patients with long duration of disease, old age, suffering from cardiovascular diseases, sequelae of cerebral infarction hemiplegia, anemia, kidney disease, etc., their physical condition is extremely poor, we will develop targeted treatment plan for each problem by doctors of corresponding departments. Third, the treatment of local wounds. This is the most important part of wound treatment, and many patients cannot control it precisely because they ignore it. The patient itself is to cure the wound, but not to do effective treatment of the wound, such as only the surface anti-inflammatory sterilization control infection, want to cure really more difficult than the sky! There are also treatments to treat the wound, such as cleaning, negative pressure drainage, but the treatment has a “picky focus”, a bit slapdash, resulting in the infection is still there, simply can not be controlled. Our practice is to have a professional stomatologist debride the patient’s wound to remove infected and necrotic skin, muscle, tendons, blood vessels and bone, depending on the purpose of the debridement. Regarding the treatment of the wound after debridement, it should not only focus on controlling inflammation, but also on debridement of the wound to create muscle. After all, one of the purposes of wound debridement is to create an environment for the wound. For this step, we use Chinese ointment. According to different treatment purposes for different trauma periods, we choose different Chinese ointment with adulteration to apply the wound externally, which is far more effective than common dressings, etc. This is one of the features of our open therapy combining Chinese and Western medicine. Of course, the above only mentions the part of our treatment, the actual treatment needs to be concerned with really complex issues, it would be nice if it could really be expressed clearly in words. But finally, we emphasize that the reason why we can treat diabetic foot conservatively without amputation is not that we have a recipe, but that we rely only on systematic and comprehensive treatment.
