What is this black fungus disease?............................

 

These days, when India is in the throes of the COVID 19 pidemic, we often hear about an outbreak of black fungus. What exactly is this black fungus?

Mucormycosis,  This so-called black fungal infection is not new to doctors. It is a very rare fungal infection found in our country. This fungus is found almost everywhere in our environment. But a person becomes infected and becomes ill in a very short time .. especially when one's immune system is weakened to get this fungal disease. Controlled diabetes, cancer treatment People with chronic diseases are a little more likely to get the disease.

However, curing a person with this disease is a very difficult task. Even with special antifungal treatments for the fungus, more than 50% of the patients who are treated with it cannot be prevented from dying. After the sinuses, our brain becomes infected. This infection is so difficult to control that sometimes the infected parts have to be surgically removed completely to save the patient's life. Some people have facial areas as well as eyes.(images )There are times when the trap has to be removed. Both the non-corona black fungus patients that we recently treated at the hospital died in a short time. Now you understand how dangerous this disease is?

So what's the connection between this black fungus and the corona? Yes.not everyone with chorionic gonadotropin disease..especially those immunocompromised and diabetic patients I mentioned earlier are more likely to get this disease .. The steroid class of drugs used by doctors in covid 19 patients already have diabetes It further raises the blood sugar level of corona patients. So such patients are at high risk of contracting this black fungus disease..so not only from the corona during the dangerous times when we have closed the country .. if we are protected from diabetes this black fungus will not become a big problem for our country ..
