How Long Does It Typically Take for Acute Myelitis to Recover?
1. Acute myelitis generally recovers within about 3 to 6 months. During the recovery period, it is important to rest more and ensure sufficient sleep.
2. Acute myelitis is usually caused by an autoimmune reaction after infection. After illness onset, fever-inducing factors are produced in the body, which can act on the thermoregulatory center, causing fever symptoms, stimulating the upper respiratory tract, and causing pharyngeal mucosa congestion and swelling, manifested as recurrent sore throat, cough, and other symptoms. As the condition progresses, thoracic spinal cord injury may also occur, causing symptoms such as lower limb weakness and paraplegia. Generally, with active cooperation with doctors for treatment, the condition can be controlled, improving the patient's discomfort and quality of life, with a good prognosis. If the patient's condition is mild and their constitution is strong, maintaining a scientific and reasonable lifestyle and dietary habits can lead to faster recovery, generally requiring about 3 months. If the patient's condition is severe or their constitution is poor, and their daily care is inadequate, the recovery time may be extended, possibly requiring about 6 months.
3. Patients with acute myelitis can use medications such as Vitamin B1 tablets, Vitamin B12 tablets, and Nimodipine tablets under the guidance of their doctors.
