How long does it take to cure pulmonary embolism?

How long it takes for pulmonary embolism to be cured after thrombolysis varies from person to person, generally takes several weeks to several months, and is affected by factors such as embolus size and location, basic health status of the patient, complications after thrombolysis, and nursing and rehabilitation after treatment. Thrombolytic therapy can quickly dissolve thrombus and restore pulmonary vascular patency, but the recovery process after thrombolysis is also affected by the following factors: 1. The size and location of emboli: Smaller emboli are usually easier to dissolve and better treated. Vessels with emboli located in the proximal part of the lung are easier to treat than those located in the distal part. 2. The patient's basic health status: Patients with other serious conditions, such as heart disease, lung disease or immune system problems, may take longer to recover.3. Complications after thrombolysis: Thrombolysis may lead to complications such as bleeding, hypotension, etc., which may prolong recovery time.4. Post-treatment care and rehabilitation: Patients need close monitoring and care after thrombolysis, including bed rest, oxygen, anticoagulation therapy, etc. Appropriate rehabilitation exercise can also help recovery. During recovery after thrombolysis, doctors will closely monitor patients' symptoms, vital signs, and blood test results to evaluate treatment effectiveness and adjust treatment options. The patient needs to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment and care, including regular medication, regular review, etc. It should be noted that pulmonary embolism is a serious disease, thrombolytic therapy is only a treatment method. After thrombolytic therapy, patients still need long-term management and follow-up to prevent recurrence and complications. If there is any doubt about the treatment and recovery of pulmonary embolism after thrombolysis, it is recommended to consult a doctor for personalized advice and guidance. At the same time, for high-risk groups, such as long-term bedridden, obese, thrombosis-prone patients, preventive measures such as appropriate exercise, wearing elastic socks, etc. should be taken to reduce the risk of pulmonary embolism.
