Hello Doctor,
What medicine can I take for Buerger's disease?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
1. For Buerger’s disease, the primary treatment is to avoid all tobacco, as it is the main cause of the condition's progression. In addition to this, aspirin may be recommended to help reduce blood clotting, and bosentan (Tracleer), a medication used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension, might also be considered in some cases.
2. It’s important to consult a vascular specialist rather than an orthopedic surgeon or sports medicine doctor. They are the experts who can help manage this condition and improve your chances of preserving your fingers and other affected areas.
Thanks
