Black Fungus Symptoms: It does not happen only by taking more steroids, know other causes In the midst of the corona epidemic, fear is now being seen in people over the Mucor Miosis Black Fungus. Black fungus is not just caused by taking more steroids, but also by taking more zinc tablets and excessive steam ie steam, the chances of getting this disease are increasing many times more. In this disease, the eye is first affected. After this, patients are approaching the eye specialists with little problem and are talking about getting black fungus examined.
According to doctors, people are considering black fungus as a mild swelling and pain in the eyes, which is wrong. Ophthalmologist Vibhuti Kashyap says that people are getting confused due to incomplete knowledge of black fungus. He said that if we talk about the last 15 days, about 700 patients went to the hospital for treatment of their eyes. Half of the patients feared to have only black fungus.
No patient found infected with black fungus in eye examination
So far, no patient has been shown to be infected with black fungus in the eye examination in the capital Ranchi. Dr. Vibhuti Kashyap explains that when there is a lot of unbearable pain on one side of the eye, the face is swollen on one side or the black stuff starts coming out of the nose and pain is felt only then the possibility of black fungus increases. In such a situation, people should consult a doctor, so that timely treatment can be done and eyesight can be saved.
More zinc tablets become food in fungus
So far, it has been observed that those who have been negatively exposed to Kovid have also suffered from Mucor Miosis. Whereas such people had neither taken much oxygen support, nor taken steroids nor had diabetes. Dr. Vibhuti says that 15 percent of the patients of black fungus found in other hospitals have found such patients, who did not use such things, but still showed mucor miasis in them.
He stated the main reason for this and said that there can be three reasons for this. The first is to wear dirty masks, the second is to take a zinc tablet longer and the third is to take excessive steam. It is the food of zinc fungus which helps in its growth. While wearing a dirty mask also increases the chances of fungal infection, and thirdly, taking more steam keeps the moisture inside the nose. Fungus can also grow from this. In such a situation, all these things should be used with the right dosage on the advice of the doctor.
