Avoid long-term overwork and mental stress, eat a balanced diet, exercise properly, and enhance resistance.
2. Prevention of tuberculosis-related diseases.
It is very important to prepare for many diseases, such as diabetes, which will increase the chance of tuberculosis by four times. Another example is AIDS, which will increase the risk of tuberculosis by 30 times. Others such as silicosis, gastrointestinal diseases, tumors, organ transplantation, long-term use of glucocorticoid, etc.
3. Prevent the spread of tuberculosis.
(1) Reduce the spread of tuberculosis: strengthen health education, let everyone know the harm and infection mode of tuberculosis (because it is a respiratory infection), and form a hygienic habit that everyone does not spit everywhere; The sputum of tuberculosis patients should be burned or disinfected with drugs; When coughing or sneezing, the patient should cover his mouth with a handkerchief or wear a mask, and don't talk loudly to others at close range. Articles used by patients should be disinfected and cleaned frequently.
(2) Reduce the concentration of mycobacterium tuberculosis in the environment. Tuberculosis is easy to spread in a closed environment with poor ventilation (such as indoor rooms, crowded dormitories or work sheds in winter). Therefore, it is necessary to develop the habit of regularly opening windows for ventilation and try to let sunlight into the room.
(3) Pay attention to isolation and reduce contact with infectious sources. Isolate the patients with bacterial tuberculosis, and don't go to crowded places where people frequently contact for activities or work. In addition to active treatment and regular ventilation, patients in family members should live in separate rooms, and sleep in separate beds if there are no conditions.
4. Preventive treatment for high-risk groups.
The focus is on newly found infected children in the families of tuberculosis patients, especially children under 5 years old and members with tuberculin test reaction ≥ 15mm or blisters.
