1, symptoms of heart disease
When physical activity is tired or full, cold, smoking or nervous, you will feel flustered, tired, short of breath, dyspnea or sudden chest pain or chest tightness. When you sleep at night, you will find it difficult to breathe when the pillow is low, and you need to sleep with a high pillow. I woke up suddenly in the process of sleeping or having nightmares, feeling flustered, chest tightness and poor breathing. There is edema in lower limbs. Hypertrophy and deformation at the ends of fingers or toes. Abnormal colors such as blue and dark red appear on the face, lips and nails.
Patients may have no obvious symptoms of consciousness during the compensatory period of cardiac function, but symptoms of heart failure gradually appear during the decompensated period of cardiac function. Most patients have different basic diseases and different severity, and are often accompanied by various diseases, which make their symptoms atypical, such as repeated respiratory tract infections, pallor, shortness of breath, dyspnea, hemoptysis, frequent chest tightness and chest pain, tachycardia, tachycardia and so on. Some patients have angina pectoris, syncope and abnormal sweating. In advanced cases, congestive heart failure, sitting breathing and pulmonary edema occur.
2. Causes of heart disease
Smoking with others. If a person is exposed to other people's smoke for 30 minutes three times a week, his risk of heart disease is 26% higher than that of people who rarely smoke passively. This is a common cause of heart disease.
Being sad all day is one of the common causes of heart disease. People who are very optimistic from the beginning are half as likely to suffer from heart disease as those who are more pessimistic.
Outdoor sports in foggy days. Outdoor exercise in foggy days with the most serious air pollution will block the supply of oxygen in the blood, thus making it easier for blood to coagulate.
Rage can have a great influence on the heart, which is a common cause of heart disease.
Bad habits that lead to heart disease: putting career first and neglecting decompression will eventually become the cause of heart disease. The mortality rate of patients with coronary heart disease with the greatest mental stress is three times higher than that of patients with the least mental stress. Therefore, if you meditate for 20 minutes every day, your anxiety and depression will be reduced by more than 25%.
3. How to treat heart disease?
3. 1, moderate exercise, enhance heart function.
Studies have found that walking is very beneficial to heart health. Walking fast every 3 minutes 1 min can increase or decrease the heart rate regularly, which is helpful to improve the vascular function. 3 ~ 5 times a week is appropriate.
3.2, eat enough staple food, maintain the brain.
The nutrition that the brain needs is carbohydrates. The latest research by American nutritionists shows that people who eat less staple food will have higher bad cholesterol and a greater risk of heart disease. Moreover, if you don't eat staple food for a week, your brain's memory and cognitive ability will be damaged.
3.3. Keep a cheerful and positive attitude.
A positive and optimistic attitude is a very important factor of health, and it is good for health to keep an optimistic attitude often. It is also necessary to be pure in heart and desire, cultivate one's mind, be philosophical in life and eliminate jealousy.
4. What should I pay attention to in heart disease?
1, no smoking
Nicotine in tobacco can accelerate the heartbeat, increase blood pressure (excessive smoking can reduce blood pressure), increase cardiac oxygen consumption, vasospasm, abnormal blood flow and increase platelet adhesion.
Step 2 ban alcohol
An experiment by American scientists confirmed that ethanol is toxic to the heart. Excessive intake of ethanol can reduce myocardial contractility. For people with heart disease, alcoholism will not only increase the burden on the heart, but even lead to arrhythmia, affect fat metabolism and promote the formation of arteriosclerosis.
3. Improve the living environment
Places with serious pollution and high noise intensity may induce heart disease. Therefore, improve the living environment, expand the green area, reduce noise and prevent all kinds of pollution.
4. Avoid going to crowded places.
Viral myocarditis, dilated cardiomyopathy, coronary heart disease and rheumatic heart disease are all related to viral infection, and even heart failure is often aggravated by upper respiratory tract infection.
5. How to prevent heart disease?
1, focusing on leisure
Stress-reducing techniques and exercises, such as yoga, meditation and Tai Chi, have been proved to reduce stress and enhance immunity. According to a study, people who practice yoga regularly will have less reaction to inflammation in the body.
Step 2 communicate with friends
Too much solitude will not only affect mental health, but also be harmful to heart health. This applies to whether you have been diagnosed with heart disease. A study has proved that women, especially, can easily induce angina pectoris again if they just recover from a heart attack and get less social support.
Step 3 forget about perfection
We all know that people who constantly pursue perfect personality are prone to heart disease. Hefner says hostility is to blame. She said: "Hostility has been proved to be the key factor of Type A personality. Hostility is an act of being angry with others. " Studies have shown that hostility is a more obvious predictor of heart disease than hypertension and obesity. Now that optimism has been proved to protect the heart, have fun and look to the future.
4. Don't hold a grudge
Hatred is not good for heart health. Research shows that people who hate often bear more mental stress and have higher heart rate than those who are tolerant. Simmons said, "You will be surprised at how deeply hatred will take root in your nerves and how long it will last to devour your heart. It is very important to get it out of your mind, which will let you move on and get rid of paranoia. "
Step 5 learn to forgive
This can also help you to have better interpersonal relationships, thus protecting your heart.
6. Heart disease treatment
1, etiology and treatment
For patients with definite etiology, active treatment of etiology can achieve good results.
2. Treatment of anatomical injury
Interventional or surgical treatment can correct pathological and anatomical changes. At present, most congenital heart diseases can be cured by surgery or interventional therapy.
3. Treatment of pathophysiology
For cardiovascular diseases that cannot or are difficult to cure at present, it is mainly to correct their lesions.
4. Rehabilitation treatment
According to the patient's heart disease, age, physical strength and other conditions, taking the method of combining static and dynamic activities and carrying out appropriate physical activities as early as possible in the recovery period will have a good effect on improving heart function and promoting physical health. In the process of rehabilitation, we should pay attention to psychological rehabilitation, relieve the worries in our minds and strengthen our confidence in overcoming the disease. After returning to work or study, we should pay attention to the combination of work and rest and regular life.
