Recently, I received a 45-year-old female patient who has been suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for many years. During each flare-up, she experiences joint pain and immobility, causing her great distress. She has tried various treatments, but none have been effective. So, she came to the hospital urgently. Based on her condition, I recommended a biopharmaceutical to her, but she did not know what diseases it was used to treat. In response to this question, I provided her with a clear answer. Biopharmaceuticals are a class of high-tech drugs with a wide range of applications in many common diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and ankylosing spondylitis. Through biopharmaceutical treatment, patients can significantly reduce symptoms and improve their quality of life. For patients, besides medical treatment, precautions in daily life cannot be ignored.
1. Regular Sleep Schedule: Maintain a good sleep schedule by going to bed before 10 p.m. every night and ensuring 8 to 10 hours of sleep. Adequate sleep helps with physical recovery and immune enhancement.
2. Appropriate Exercise: Engage in regular exercise by dedicating half an hour to an hour each day for aerobic activities such as running, swimming, and skipping rope. This can promote blood circulation, relieve joint pain, and improve quality of life.
The advent of biopharmaceuticals has brought hope to many patients. However, we should also understand that medication is only part of the treatment. Patients need to pay attention to and adjust their daily lives to achieve better treatment outcomes. Let's look forward to more applications of biopharmaceuticals in the future, bringing health and hope to more patients.
