How is early-stage pulmonary edema treated?

The early treatment of pulmonary effusion mainly includes the following measures: 1. Medication: Mild pulmonary effusion can be treated with diuretics such as spironolactone to promote fluid excretion and reduce cardiac load. If the condition is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, anti-tuberculosis drugs such as ethambutol hydrochloride tablets should also be administered. 2. Physical therapy: Oxygen therapy is a form of physical treatment that provides high-concentration oxygen to correct hypoxemia and improve tissue hypoxia in the lungs. 3. General management: Patients should get adequate rest during treatment and pay attention to nutritional support. Consuming high-protein foods such as milk and eggs is recommended to enhance physical condition and promote recovery. 4. Surgical intervention: In cases of significant fluid accumulation, procedures such as thoracentesis or intercostal tube drainage may be considered to directly remove the accumulated fluid. Patients with concerns should seek timely medical consultation.
