. It’s hot in summer. Do any friends feel chest tightness, flustered and out of breath? They need to take a deep breath to relieve them slightly. The whole person is irritable, fidgety, uncomfortable, heart pounding and think they have a heart disease? However, going to the hospital for examination, a large part of them are not real heart disease. What’s going on? Therefore, self judgment is very important. Let’s introduce it in detail. Let’s have a look.
Why does the day heat feel chest tightness flustered?
1. Neurological impact
due to the high temperature, we often have emotional reactions such as dryness, heat and irritability. These are the manifestations of nervous system abnormalities. In this state, the nervous system function is abnormal, which will lead to abnormalities in the body’s internal circulation system and metabolic capacity. Therefore, it is easy to cause respiratory system dysfunction, so there will be discomfort symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, poor breathing and so on.
for this situation, generally, it can be alleviated or eliminated by going to a cool environment. If conditions do not allow, it is necessary to go to a cool and ventilated environment as soon as possible, which can also play a good cooling effect, so as to eliminate discomfort symptoms.
2. Blood pressure impact
in the environment of high temperature, blood vessels are in an expanded state, which will lead to the reduction of blood pressure. Therefore, some people are prone to the discomfort symptoms of hypotension due to lack of Qi and blood, so they are prone to dizziness, general fatigue, chest tightness, poor breathing and other discomfort symptoms.
3. Heart impact
when the weather is hot, people with poor physique are prone to the symptoms of myocardial ischemia, which will affect the blood pressure and circulatory system, and then lead to insufficient blood supply to the lungs, resulting in discomfort symptoms such as chest tightness and dyspnea.
What is real heart disease? What is fake heart disease?
true heart disease, as the name suggests, is a heart disease suffering from coronary heart disease, rheumatic heart disease, hypertension, cardiomyopathy, heart failure, etc. when the patient comes on, it is usually accompanied by discomfort symptoms such as chest pain, nausea, weakness, shortness of breath or irregular heartbeat, which can be life-threatening in serious cases. It can be confirmed by examination.
and pseudoheart disease is just a popular name in the mouth of ordinary people. It is called & ldquo; in western medicine; Cardiac neurosis & rdquo;. The main feature is that the symptoms are diverse, involving cardiovascular, nervous, respiratory, digestive and other systems, among which the cardiovascular performance is more prominent.
patients often feel that they have heart problems, such as severe palpitation, chest tightness, chest pain, dyspnea, neurasthenia, autonomic nerve dysfunction, etc., but no obvious organic lesions were found in ECG, cardiac ultrasound and other examinations. It is a kind of systemic neurosis. In essence, it has no organic changes in cardiovascular, so it is also called & ldquo; Pseudoheart disease & rdquo;.
Judge whether you got & ldquo; Fake heart disease;?
1. After detailed cardiovascular system examination and general examination, organic heart disease is excluded, but it also has conscious symptoms such as palpitation, chest pain and chest tightness;
2. It is a manifestation of systemic neurosis and autonomic nerve disorders, such as anxiety, tension, depression, depression, hyperhidrosis, dizziness, fatigue, insomnia, upset and irritability.
Diet taboos for patients with heart disease
1. Quit stimulating food, drink and excitatory drugs: pepper, ginger, pepper, tobacco, wine, drinking a lot of strong tea, and taking stimulants such as caffeine and amphetamine will also burden the heart, Especially when the heart function of patients with rheumatic heart disease is poor.
2. Limit the intake of an appropriate amount of salt: for the same reason as limiting salt, patients with rheumatic heart disease should eat less sodium rich foods such as bananas to avoid edema.
3. Slow drinks: when drinking a large amount of water, tea, soup, fruit juice, soda or other drinks at one time, it will rapidly increase blood volume and then increase the burden on the heart. Therefore, do not eat too many drinks, preferably no more than 500 ml at a time. When you need to drink more water, drink it several times, less each time, and the interval is longer.
4. A small amount of multiple meals: Patients with heart disease should not eat too much. The total heat energy should be taken in 4 ~ 5 times a day to reduce gastrointestinal overfilling and diaphragm elevation after meals and avoid the increase of heart workload. Dinner should be eaten earlier and should be light. After dinner, no or less food and water should be added.
5. Appropriately limit the intake of protein and heat energy: in case of heart failure, the daily protein can be controlled at 25 ~ 30 grams and the heat energy is 600 kcal; After 2 ~ 3 days, the protein can be added to 40 ~ 50g and the heat energy is 1000 ~ 1500 kcal. After the condition improves, gradually increase protein and heat energy, but it should not be too high to avoid increasing the load of the heart.
6. Eat food that is easy to digest: Patients with heart disease have blood stasis and edema in the gastrointestinal tract due to the decline of blood circulation function, which affects the digestion and absorption of food. Therefore, the food should be easy to digest. Start with liquid and semi liquid diet, and then switch to soft rice.
7. Adequate vitamins and an appropriate amount of inorganic salts should be supplied, such as vitamin B1 and vitamin C, to protect the myocardium, and an appropriate amount of calcium should be supplied to maintain normal myocardial activity. Potassium has a protective effect on the heart and causes arrhythmia when it is insufficient. When using diuretics, in addition to potassium supplement, we should also pay attention to the supply of magnesium and zinc.
