In the process of rehabilitation management, antibacterial drugs are supposed to be a powerful tool for the recovery of the health of the patient, but if used inappropriately, they can have serious consequences. The following are some of the negative examples of the unjustified use of anti-bacterial drugs in rehabilitation management, with a view to drawing attention to their rational use.
Case I: Overdose to cause herbicide disorders
After having undergone a more serious pneumonia treatment, Mr. Lee entered the rehabilitation phase. He is still weak and coughing from time to time. As a result of fear of re-infection, Mr. Lee purchased a wide range of antibacterial drugs on his own, and increased the dose at his own initiative, without medical instructions, in order to “strangle” the fungus completely in the cradle.
However, in a short period of time, a new problem arose for Mr. Lee. He began to suffer from frequent diarrhoea, as many as a few times a day, and from periods of abdominal pain. It was only after a visit to the hospital that it was discovered that the normal herbological balance in the intestinal tract had been severely disrupted as a result of the overuse of antibacterial drugs. Antibacterial drugs kill a large number of intestinal strains that are useful to the human body while at the same time eliminating harmful bacteria, causing intestinal disorders and causing a series of symptoms of discomfort, such as diarrhoea.
The ill-advised use of anti-bacterial drugs, which was intended to prevent infection better during his rehabilitation, caused new problems for his body, and Mr. Lee had to stop the anti-bacterial drugs he was taking and undergo treatment for intestinal disorders, which undoubtedly prolonged his overall recovery.
Case II: Experienced drug use delays
Ms. Zhang had had an infection with the urology system, which was soon healed after taking some form of antibacterial medication. Shortly after a gynaecology operation, she entered the rehabilitation period, with some slight symptoms of lower discomfort, and, assuming that it was a similar infection, she took the antibacterial drug herself, in accordance with her previous experience.
This was not the case, however, and instead of abating for several days, her symptoms of discomfort became more serious, with signs of heat and acreage. It was only when she went to the hospital to examine her that she found out that she had contracted another bacteria after the surgery, and that the antibacterial drugs she had previously taken had no effect on the bacteria.
The delay in the correct treatment as a result of experience-based self-medicines, the further deterioration of Ms. Zhang ‘ s infection situation and the need for more complex treatments, including the replacement of suitable antibacterial drugs and the introduction of intravenous fluids, have caused her additional suffering in the process of rehabilitation and have increased medical costs and difficulties in rehabilitation.
Case III: Repeated cases caused by a random stoppage
Xiao Wang, a young workman who had a cold fever after a period of medical treatment, was given antibacterial drugs and ordered to be taken on a course of treatment. When antibacterial drugs were first administered, Wang’s symptoms did abate, fever and cough.
However, after a few days, Wang felt better and decided to stop taking antibacterial drugs. However, in the short term, his condition was abruptly repeated, with a renewed high fever and a sharper cough. It turns out that, although the symptoms appear to have abated, the bacteria in the body have not been completely eliminated, and that the random detoxification has given the remaining bacteria the opportunity to reproduce in large quantities, re-inducing serious infections.
Little Wang had to go to the hospital again to recommence his treatment, which not only delayed his working hours, but also left his body suffering from further illness, which took more time and effort than before.
These negative cases warn us that the use of antibacterial drugs in rehabilitation management must be based on scientific and reasonable principles. It is not free to use drugs, to change dosages or to stop drugs. It is essential that the need for anti-bacterial drugs, the choice of appropriate drugs and their strict application to the process of treatment, be determined in an accurate manner, under the professional guidance of the doctor, so as to ensure that the patient is on a smooth path to rehabilitation and to avoid the negative consequences of unreasonable use.
