類風濕關節炎患者需警惕晨間僵硬與關節腫痛,中西醫整合照護助改善症狀

Quick Look

45歲陳女士因雙手關節晨間僵硬、腫痛影響日常生活,經檢查確診類風濕關節炎。因胃潰瘍史無法耐受西藥,轉求中醫調理,經清熱除濕、調理脾胃方針治療及針灸後症狀緩解。醫師提醒,類風濕關節炎為全身性自體免疫疾病,需長期管理並注意作息、關節保暖與適度運動。

Why It Matters

類風濕關節炎是慢性自體免疫疾病,免疫系統異常攻擊自身關節滑膜導致發炎與損傷。中醫將其歸類為「痹證」,認為與風、寒、濕、熱等外邪及氣血失調、經絡阻滯有關。患者若有胃腸基礎疾病,西藥消炎止痛藥可能加重不適,因此部份人轉求中西醫整合照護。

賴睿昕中醫師提醒,若出現持續性的關節腫痛、晨間僵硬或活動受限,應及早就醫評估,避免延誤治療。透過醫師診斷、規律追蹤及生活調整,協助患者維持關節功能與生活品質。(取自貼文)

45歲的陳女士,一年前突然發現雙手手指關節在清晨起床時僵硬不適,像被膠水黏住一樣,必須泡熱水並活動半小時以上才能逐漸伸展。隨著症狀加劇,手指開始出現紅腫、疼痛,甚至影響彈琴、拿筷子等日常活動,就醫檢查後確診為類風濕關節炎。

起初陳女士接受西醫治療,但因本身有胃潰瘍病史,使用消炎止痛藥後容易出現胃部不適,病情控制也不如預期,因此轉而尋求中醫調理。經中醫師評估後,認為屬於「濕熱痹阻、脾胃虛弱」證型,由翰鳴堂中醫診所院長賴睿昕中醫師依體質開立清熱除濕、調理脾胃方向的中藥,並搭配針灸治療。經過一段時間調理後,陳女士自覺胃部不適及關節僵硬情況有所改善,生活品質也逐漸恢復。

請繼續往下閱讀...

類風濕關節炎是全身性自體免疫疾病 不只影響關節

傳統上,類風濕關節炎患者多透過西醫藥物控制病情,包括類固醇、非類固醇消炎止痛藥(NSAIDs)或生物製劑等。然而,部分患者在治療過程中可能因藥物產生腸胃不適等問題,因此也開始尋求中西醫整合照護方式。

賴睿昕中醫師指出,類風濕關節炎是一種慢性的自體免疫疾病。正常情況下,免疫系統負責防禦外來病原,但類風濕關節炎患者的免疫反應異常,可能攻擊自身關節滑膜,引起發炎、增生,進一步造成軟骨與骨質受損,嚴重時可能影響關節功能。

「很多人以為類風濕關節炎只是關節痛,忍一忍就過去了,這是常見誤解。」賴睿昕中醫師表示,類風濕關節炎屬於全身性的系統性疾病,長期發炎狀態也可能影響整體健康,因此需要持續追蹤與治療。

中醫看類風濕關節炎 與氣血失調、經絡阻滯相關

賴睿昕中醫師表示,中醫將類風濕關節炎歸類於「痹證」或「尪痹」範疇。《黃帝內經》記載:「風寒濕三氣雜至,合而為痹。」

從中醫觀點來看,其形成與內外因素相關:

●內因:患者可能因先天稟賦不足,或後天過度勞累,導致脾腎虛弱、氣血不足,使身體防禦能力下降。

●外因:風、寒、濕、熱等外在因素可能趁虛侵襲經絡。

當外邪與體內濕氣、瘀血交互作用,使氣血運行不順,便可能出現關節疼痛、腫脹等症狀。

依不同證型調理 急性期與緩解期治療方向不同

賴睿昕中醫師表示,臨床上會依患者症狀與體質進行辨證,常見可分為以下幾種類型:

1.行痹(風邪偏盛)

疼痛位置可能變化不固定,例如手腕、膝蓋等部位交替疼痛。治療方向以祛風通絡、散寒除濕為主。

2.痛痹(寒邪偏盛)

常見關節疼痛明顯,且遇冷時加重、溫熱後較舒緩。治療方向以溫經散寒、止痛為主。

3.著痹(濕邪偏盛)

常見關節腫脹、沉重感,以及清晨僵硬時間較長。治療方向以除濕通絡、祛風散寒為主。

4.熱痹(熱邪偏盛)

常見關節紅、腫、熱、痛,局部摸起來較熱。治療方向以清熱、消腫為主。

中藥搭配針灸 協助改善疼痛與活動不適

除了內服中藥,中醫也會搭配外治方式協助改善症狀。針灸可透過刺激相關穴位,調節氣血運行,臨床上會依疼痛部位選取局部穴位,例如手腕、膝部相關穴位,並搭配合谷、太衝等遠端穴位進行調理。

對於慢性緩解期且有關節冰冷、畏寒等表現的患者,中醫也可能搭配熱敷、中藥薰洗或艾灸等方式,依個人體質進行調整。

類風濕關節炎長期管理 生活習慣也很重要

賴睿昕中醫師提醒,類風濕關節炎需要長期管理,除了配合醫師治療,日常生活也應注意:

●維持規律作息:避免長期熬夜,保持良好睡眠習慣。

●注意關節保暖:天冷或晨起時,可透過溫熱方式協助舒緩僵硬不適。

●適度運動:避免因害怕疼痛而完全不活動,可依身體狀況選擇太極拳、八段錦、游泳或散步等低衝擊運動,維持關節活動度與肌力。

賴睿昕中醫師提醒,若出現持續性的關節腫痛、晨間僵硬或活動受限,應及早就醫評估,避免延誤治療。透過醫師診斷、規律追蹤及生活調整,協助患者維持關節功能與生活品質。
