What are the treatments for mumps?

Mumps patients will have many symptoms, and the number of people suffering from mumps in our lives is increasing. So what are the treatments for mumps? This is a topic that many patients are very concerned about. So, how to treat mumps? The details are as follows:

1. Correct water and electrolyte imbalance: Severe patients are prone to dehydration, water and salt metabolism disorders and hypokalemia due to massive diarrhea and fever. Especially when treated with large amounts of hormones, urinary potassium excretion increases, which is more likely to lead to hypokalemia, which can induce toxic intestinal dilatation. Therefore, patients should take medication under the guidance of a doctor and pay attention to the reaction after taking the medication. If outpatients have water and electrolyte imbalance due to worsening of their condition, they should be hospitalized in time to receive timely intravenous water, sodium chloride and potassium salts to correct water and acid-base imbalance.

2. Rest: Rest is very beneficial to the disease, especially for patients in the active stage, it is important to get enough rest to reduce mental and physical burden. As the condition improves, the amount of activity can be gradually increased, but heavy physical activity should generally be avoided.

3. Diet and nutrition: During the diarrhea period, you should pay attention to supplementing nutrition and appropriately reduce the fiber content in your diet, such as leeks, celery, garlic sprouts, etc. You should eat less residue to reduce the mechanical damage that high fiber content may cause to the colon mucosa. Regarding the issue of mumps patients drinking milk, it depends on whether the diarrhea worsens after drinking milk, because ulcerative mumps patients may be allergic to cow's milk protein. On the other hand, some patients may have diarrhea after drinking milk due to intestinal lactase deficiency.

4. From ancient times to now, both Chinese and Western medicine have the theory that the large intestine is the source of all diseases. After digestion and absorption, food is metabolized into residues, most of which can be excreted from the body. The dirt remaining on the wall of the large intestine will accumulate and cause harm. What's more, some people suffer from constipation due to long-term unreasonable diet, lack of exercise, drug side effects, metabolic disorders, endocrine disorders, psychological and mental disorders, etc.
