Nine manifestations of a bad heart

Nine manifestations of a bad heart

When the heart load is aggravated or muscle damage, its pump blood function is reduced, the output blood volume can not meet the needs of organs and tissues, and the blood in them can not be smoothly returned to the heart, this state is called heart failure, referred to as "heart failure." If some of the following symptoms occur, it may indicate impaired cardiac function.

　　first, just lie down and be shortness of breath. after a few minutes of lying flat, the patient appears shortness of breath and can only be slightly relieved after sitting up. You should consider that the patient may have heart failure at this time. This is due to the increase in the amount of heart and blood back, resulting in increased airway resistance, patients appear shortness of breath. At this time should be timely to the cardiology, while excluding the possibility of pulmonary disease.

　　second, the chest is heavy as there are large stones. is commonly referred to as "chest tightness", if the elimination of emotional factors and other organs such as respiratory function changes, at this time should consider the patient may have myocardial ischemia. If chest tightness lasts for several minutes can not be alleviated, or even severe chest pain, it is likely to appear angina and even acute myocardial infarction (referred to as "cardiac infarction"). Should call 120 as soon as possible, rushed to the nearest hospital, in case of conditions can first contain nitroglycerin tablets or quick-acting rescue pills and other drugs.

　　third, the clothes and shoes suddenly tighten. clothes, shoes tighten, many people may be the first reaction is their own fat, but for heart disease patients, may indicate impaired heart function.This is due to cardiac discharge (the total amount of blood emitted by the ventricle per minute), reduced renal blood flow, reduced moisture intake in vitro, swelling of the lower extremities, weight gain (especially an increase of more than 2 kg in 3 days) and timely medical attention.

　　IV, loss of appetite. In addition to loss of appetite, patients with impaired heart function may also experience abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting, constipation, upper abdominal pain and other symptoms, mostly due to right heart failure, gastrointestinal bleeding caused.

　　V, Dizzy dizziness. dizziness and dizziness are more common in daily life, poor sleep, cervical spondylosis, hypertension and so on are more common causes. However, with the obvious low blood pressure dizziness dizziness, may be caused by impaired heart function, serious may also appear syncope, cardiac shock and other life-threatening conditions, at this time should be promptly sought medical attention.

　　VI, anxiety. the anxiety of normal people is mostly related to emotion, while others still feel palpitations, panic and restlessness when they are emotionally stable, which should consider whether there is a heart disease. Increased heart rate, arrhythmia is a common cause of panic anxiety, mostly caused by cardiac functional or organic changes, should be early intervention to prevent further exacerbation of symptoms.

　　seventh, cough is more than. most people catch symptoms such as coughing and fever, and coughing does not vary greatly during the day and night. But some people do not have fever and other similar cold symptoms, only cough, more than night at night, prostrate when more obvious than when sitting, at this time to be wary of whether the heart function is impaired. This may be the lung Hemorrhage Airways tract is stimulated, can be accompanied by cough white foam phlegm, phlegm with blood, acute attack can even appear pink foam like phlegm.

　　eighth, prone to fatigue or fatigue all day long. Many patients with heart disease start their illness with weakness or fatigue, mostly due to impaired left heart function, reduced cardiac discharge, can not meet the caused by peripheral tissue perfusion.

　　Nineth, less urine and swelling of the lower extremities.there is less urine and swelling of the lower extremities, and many people often think that something is wrong with the kidneys. In fact, impaired heart function can lead to insufficient blood flow in the kidneys or excessive pressure in the body vein, often with less urine and swelling of the lower extremities. Long-term ischemia of the kidneys can cause deterioration of renal function, the appearance of proteinuria, the rise of blood creatinine, and the formation of a vicious circle of increased heart failure.

In the event of any one or more of the above "heartbreak" symptoms, medical attention should be sought in a timely manner.Exclude related diseases in compliance with medical instructions.After a clear diagnosis should be strictly in accordance with the doctor's medication and other treatment, do not change or deactivate the drug. ▲
