There has been an early autumn wind this year. Before and after the autumn wind season, the minimum temperature in Beijing dropped to 10 ℃. Most people felt a chill, and some people also suffered from respiratory diseases such as rhinitis, pharyngitis and colds. In the upper respiratory tract infection, the most important thing to prevent is diphtheria, because after suffering from diphtheria, it is easy to cause myocarditis, peripheral nerve terminal paralysis, toxic nephropathy, it can also cause neck lymphadenitis, lymph node inflammation (such as "cow neck"), otitis media, pneumonia and other concurrent diseases.

It has long been proved that diphtheria myocarditis, peripheral nerve peripheral paralysis and toxic nephropathy are the three major complications of diphtheria. The nephropathy easily caused by diphtheria is toxic glomerulonephritis, which is far more common than cervical lymphadenitis, although it is rare, so it is one of the three major complications. After diphtheria causes toxic glomerulonephritis, there will be symptoms such as reduced urine volume, white blood cells and tube types in urine, but generally no hematuria.

Since diphtheria is easy to cause myocarditis, peripheral nerve terminal paralysis, toxic nephropathy three major complications, as well as pneumonia and other diseases, then it is necessary to actively prevent and treat diphtheria. First of all, it is necessary to understand that diphtheria is a typical infectious disease. Diphtheria patients should be isolated and treated, and their clothes and articles should be sterilized at high temperature. People who are frail had better be vaccinated against diphtheria and regularly vaccinated against diphtheria.

In addition, people's understanding of diphtheria is generally very narrow and limited to the throat. In fact, diphtheria includes not only pharyngeal diphtheria, diphtheria, but also nasal diphtheria, skin diphtheria and other parts of diphtheria. Although nasal diphtheria is rare, it often occurs in infants and young children. Skin diphtheria is often caused by wounds, and diphtheria occurs occasionally in other parts of the vulva, navel, esophagus, conjunctiva and middle ear, so active prevention and treatment is needed.
