Coronary heart disease life taboos

Coronary heart disease is an irreversible chronic disease, once you put on this “hat”, you must be prepared for a long-term “battle”. However, patients with coronary heart disease can also prolong their lives with the disease. The key is to pay attention to self-regulation in life on the basis of reasonable medication. One, avoid getting angry, anger. The central nervous system of the human body directs everything, when overexcited, nervous, especially when overjoyed, due to the stress response of the central nervous system, can make small arteries vasoconstriction, resulting in a rise in blood pressure, heartbeat, myocardial contraction enhanced, so that coronary heart disease suffer from ischemia, hypoxia, thus triggering angina or myocardial infarction. Second, avoid overload exercise. “Life is in motion”, but life is more in balance, it reflects the fundamental law of life movement. From the objective reality of the elderly, exercise should be measured, just right, to achieve a combination of static and dynamic, Yin and Yang coordination and balance, in order to reach the best point. If too much is not enough and the balance is lost, it will go the other way. Therefore, patients with coronary heart disease should adhere to exercise, but also to strictly grasp the word “degree”, so that the amount of blood supply and blood demand balance. In a quiet state, the heart muscle needs about 300 ml of blood supply per minute; large physical activity, the maximum amount of blood required by the heart muscle per minute up to about 2000 ml. It can be seen that the amount of overload exercise is very likely to lead to acute ischemia and hypoxia of the cardiovascular and cerebral vessels, which may cause acute myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction. Therefore, patients with coronary artery disease in the participation of a variety of sports activities, under the guidance of doctors can take drugs in advance to prevent. Third, avoid dehydration. Some elderly people usually do not develop the habit of drinking water regularly, until thirsty want to drink water, has caused varying degrees of “dehydration”. About 70% of human blood is water, off the water, how does the blood flow? Because the elderly, especially coronary heart disease patients have increased blood viscosity, to a certain extent, can appear blood clotting tendency, resulting in ischemia or blockage of the heart and brain vessels, in serious cases can cause myocardial infarction or stroke. Water can dilute the blood and promote blood flow, so the elderly should develop the habit of drinking water regularly, preferably half an hour before bedtime, wake up in the middle of the night and drink some water in the morning after waking up. Fourth, avoid lack of oxygen. Generally speaking, in a day, in addition to outdoor activities or aerobic exercise oxygen intake in line with physiological needs, other times of oxygen intake star is often insufficient, coronary heart disease patients are prone to chest tightness and other symptoms. If the long-term oxygen supply is insufficient, it will aggravate the degree of atherosclerosis. Therefore, patients with coronary heart disease should often ventilate the living room environment, and when chest tightness or discomfort in the cardiothoracic area, immediately take a few deep breaths slowly (i.e. deep breathing). When angina occurs, in addition to taking first-aid drugs, you should immediately inhale deeply, and if you have an oxygen bottle at home, you can inhale oxygen for a few minutes to relieve angina and reduce the death of heart muscle cells. Five, avoid the cold and heat. In the cold season, patients with coronary heart disease should not neglect to keep their hands, head and face warm. Because the cold in these parts can cause peripheral vasoconstriction, accelerating the heartbeat or coronary artery spasm. In addition, the cold can also increase the secretion of norepinephrine and increase blood pressure. Therefore, when coronary heart disease patients go out in winter, it is appropriate to wear masks, gloves and hats; brush teeth and wash face in the morning with warm water; laundry, washing dishes, do not soak hands in cold water for a long time. In the hot summer. The amount of human blood circulation increases substantially, which can make the sympathetic nerve excited, heartbeat accelerated, and increase the extra burden on the heart. Therefore, patients with coronary heart disease in the harsh winter or hot weather. Should take appropriate self-protection measures. Sixth, avoid smoking and alcohol. In 1995, the World Health Organization survey of 21 countries showed that: nicotine can make the blood “fibrinogen” increased, resulting in thick blood, easily caused by blood clotting and abnormal changes in blood vessels, so the incidence of coronary heart disease in smokers than non-smokers 3 times higher. After quitting smoking, the fibrinogen in the blood is greatly reduced, which can reduce the incidence of coronary heart disease. In addition, frequent consumption of strong alcohol can lead to heart disease and hyperlipidemia due to alcohol poisoning. Excessive ethanol can also increase the oxygen consumption of the heart and aggravate coronary heart disease. Therefore, patients with coronary heart disease should prohibit the consumption of strong alcohol, or replace it with a small amount of red wine or dark beer. Red wine or dark beer contains flavonoids, which has the role of inhibiting platelet aggregation and thrombosis. Seven, avoid oral unhygienic. If the mouth is not hygienic or suffering from periodontitis and other dental diseases, the gram-positive bacilli and streptococci in the mouth may enter the blood circulation, so that small arteries spasm or thrombosis, resulting in myocardial infarction. Therefore, patients with coronary heart disease should especially keep their mouths clean and prevent dental disease. Eight, avoid overfull. As too full when the stomach can directly compress the heart, increasing the burden on the heart, can also lead to cardiovascular spasm, and even angina pectoris and acute myocardial infarction. Therefore, patients with coronary artery disease usually declare to eat less and more, especially dinner can only eat to seven or eight minutes full.
