When it comes to AIDS , many people are afraid of it. Why are people so afraid of it?
After all, many people have too little understanding of it. Maybe they hear others say how terrible it is, or their understanding of it is only in film and television dramas. Therefore, in life, if you hear that someone has the disease, some people may immediately stay away from him or have bad opinions about him.
Although this disease has a great impact on human health, with the advancement of medical standards and development to the present, although it cannot be cured at present, it is controllable and preventable. It is wrong to have always had a fear of it. Scientists did not stop researching because of this, hoping that this problem would be overcome in the near future.
Which groups of people are at high risk for AIDS?
Sexual transmission is one of the main transmission channels of the disease. The risks are higher for people such as multi-sexual partner population, people with sexual contact with patients with the disease, and gay men and gay sex activists.
In addition, it also has ways to spread blood, mother and infant and blood products, which are what everyone should pay attention to avoid. Some of the situations that many people are worried about are not contagious, such as eating at the same table with the patient, shaking hands with the patient , etc. What we need to prevent is diseases, not people.
Why is it difficult to heal?
This virus is very cunning. It can deceive the immune system in the human body, and successfully mixed it into it. Then it will be attacked, and its has a great destructive power . When the human immune system is in chaos, it will gain the upper hand and then continue to reproduce, further affecting physical health.
In addition, it does not cause physical symptoms immediately when it enters the human body. It is also good at concealing . After infection, there may not be any physical discomfort in the first decades.
Even if abnormalities begin to occur, the human body may not be able to pay attention immediately. As the condition gradually develops and obvious and serious discomfort occurs, it may be taken seriously and discovered. At this time, the difficulty of treatment will increase.
Therefore, early detection and early treatment are very important and have a great impact on how the disease develops.
What abnormalities will happen to the body when AIDS is coming?
Through the above understanding, I believe everyone can see that it does not occur once it is infected, and the incubation period is very long. Generally speaking, it has the following three onset periods:
(I) Acute infection period
(II) Asymptomatic infection period
(I) Asymptomatic infection period
(I) Onset period
Before the onset, it means that the human immune system has been greatly damaged. At this time, there are many discomforts, and the impact on health is relatively large. When in the asymptomatic period, there is basically no difference between patients and ordinary people.
Although some abnormalities in the body may occur during the acute infection period, it may be difficult to attract the attention of patients because it is easy to be confused with other minor problems. If you can pay attention and check earlier and actively intervene at this time, you may be able to better control it.
The following three abnormalities may occur in the skin. Once it is found, don’t always think it is an ordinary skin disease
, unexplained rash
, face and limbs may appear, and the characteristics are different, such as bloody or pityriasis like rosea.
2. Unexplained hands and feet squatting
There is squatting on the skin of hands and feet. Many people may think that it is caused by dry weather, especially now that the fall and winter are in transition, they will not take it seriously, and they will naturally get better afterwards.
3. Itching of unknown causes
There is a noticeable itching in the skin. In the eyes of many people, it is just an ordinary skin disease, or something that causes allergies, and they often apply some ointment on their own.
For ordinary skin diseases, it is not harmful to physical health. Generally speaking, applying ointment in time or using other methods can relieve discomfort. However, if these skin manifestations are unknown and have not been improved, please remind everyone to pay attention to it. To be safe, please screen them in time. Don’t always ignore them and treat them as ordinary skin problems.
There are AIDS patients or have achieved "cured"
According to foreign media reports, a 66-year-old patient in California, USA, had a long-term remission after treatment and had not received treatment for 17 months, but there was no virus replication in his body . At the same time, he also suffers from leukemia .
His condition is well controlled, and the researchers say this brings hope to elderly patients with AIDS and leukemia.
For patients with this disease, I hope everyone will have a correct understanding of it. Don’t think that if you get it, there is nothing you can do. Actively treat it and maintain a good attitude will be very helpful for promoting treatment. If your mentality is not good, your already damaged immune system may be even more difficult and will not be conducive to treatment.
In addition, this virus is not as many people think. As soon as it is infected, it will become a patient. Pay attention to it early. It can block , and the earlier the blockade, the higher the chance of success. For those who have high-risk behaviors, they should seize this opportunity to save themselves.
To sum up, AIDS cannot be cured at present, and prevention and early treatment are particularly critical. It does not have a vaccine yet, so we must learn to prevent it, understand its transmission path, and protect ourselves with knowledge. If you are infected with the virus, your body will have some abnormalities, especially in the acute phase. The skin is prone to the above abnormal symptoms. If you don’t know the cause, don’t treat yourself. You think it’s an ordinary skin disease. Don’t use ointments by yourself. You should seek medical treatment early.
