The initial symptoms of cervical spondylosis in the elderly are mainly dizziness, headache and weakness, and neck pain, and when the disease develops more seriously, there may be various symptoms such as numbness in the hands and feet and panic. In short, cervical spondylosis is better treated at an early stage, do not keep putting it off, it will delay the treatment. Heart disease Patients with heart disease also often have dizziness. Do not think that heart disease is heart pain, the heart is a very important organ for us, when it has problems, it can be said that the whole body will be affected. The heart does not deliver enough oxygen to the brain, and the brain will naturally feel dizzy. Cerebral arteriosclerosis If an elderly person suffers from insomnia, sometimes loss of energy and tinnitus, he or she should beware of cerebral arteriosclerosis, sometimes loss of memory and numbness in the limbs, and should go to the hospital as soon as possible because cerebral arteriosclerosis can also cause dizziness. Anemia Elderly people who have dizziness, weakness and pale face should go to the hospital to check if they have pelvic blood. In a healthy state, the amount of hematopoietic tissue present in the body as well as the quality and quantity of hematopoiesis has decreased in the elderly, and the aging of the red blood cells themselves makes their utilization of iron much less than before. Therefore, if the elderly do not pay attention to nutritional care, it is easy to suffer from anemia. In addition, anemia can be secondary to dyspepsia, peptic ulcer, gastrointestinal bleeding, and chronic inflammatory diseases in elderly patients.
