Coronary heart disease is a common disease among middle-aged and elderly people. From the perspective of Western medicine, coronary heart disease is formed due to atherosclerosis of coronary arteries, which blocks the lumen of blood vessels and leads to functional changes (spasm) in coronary arteries, resulting in myocardial ischemia and hypoxia. In terms of Chinese medicine, coronary heart disease belongs to the category of chest paralysis, heart pain, and true heart pain, etc. Its onset is due to the internal deficiency of positive energy, phlegm, blood stasis, qi stagnation, and cold condensation, which causes the heart veins to be closed and blocked. “The treatment of coronary heart disease in Chinese medicine can be said to have a history of several thousand years and has formed numerous unique theoretical systems, and to argue for coronary heart disease from the perspective of ‘treating the untreated’ is a popular medical topic in recent years, specifically, it can be divided into three parts.” Deng Xuguang, chief physician from the Second People’s Hospital of Shenzhen’s combined Chinese and Western medicine branch, introduced to the reporter. The first part of the prevention before the disease Deng Xuguang pointed out that, from the current point of view, coronary heart disease has four major characteristics: one is typical of the elderly common, multi-morbidity, two is the onset and lifestyle closely related, three is this disease is controllable and preventable, four is the rapid onset, high mortality. So, what people, what body type is prone to coronary heart disease? From the point of view of Chinese medicine is phlegm-damp, damp-heat, blood stasis, qi deficiency constitution, susceptible people are men over 35 years old, with hypertension, coronary heart disease, family history of diabetes, “three high”, long-term smoking, alcohol abuse, less movement, as well as mental stress, nervous depression, oral contraceptives or menopausal women. In daily life, how to maintain health to prevent and control coronary heart disease? Chinese medicine first emphasizes the need to regulate the mood – to regulate the mood, smooth the qi, aloof and nourish the heart. The ancient book says: “The qi is unclogged, the qi and blood are harmonized, the yin and yang are balanced, and the disease is safe.” Second, pay attention to the usual diet regimen. Deng Xuguang pointed out that eating too much is bound to hurt the stomach and intestines, and excessive salt intake, smoking and alcohol, hunger and satiety, eating too greasy and too sweet are also detrimental to the body. So what is good to eat? Good vegetables for coronary heart disease are: celery, carrot, white radish, tomato, cucumber, bitter melon, peanut rice, garlic, shiitake mushrooms, ciguatera, kelp, purple beads of vegetables, good fruit for coronary heart disease: apple, hawthorn, kiwi, pineapple. “And coffee, wine, sugar, strong tea, cream, chocolate, fatty meat, animal offal, animal brain, coconut oil, cuttlefish, squid, mussels, snails, crab yolk, egg yolk, etc., these should be eaten sparingly, which is not good for the heart.” In addition, to exercise properly, Shu meridians, strong muscles and bones. Too much rest and relaxation, qi and blood is not smooth, phlegm and saliva gum, qi stagnation are prone to disease. “In fact, there are a lot of traditional sports, can be achieved to move the muscles and bones, regulate the breath, meditation and tranquility, but also more suitable for the elderly, such as taijiquan, five birds play, eight brocade and so on.” Deng Xiguang pointed out that there are seasons to health, disease prevention and health should be in line with the spring, summer growth, autumn harvest, winter collection of the laws of nature, in line with the time to health, and strive to intermingle with heaven and earth, harmony. The general principle of health care in four seasons is: spring and summer nourish Yang, autumn and winter nourish Yin. In terms of coronary heart disease health, we should pay attention to the summer to protect the heart, “the summer yang is the most vigorous easy metabolism, to make the body qi flow smoothly, ventilate freely to show an open heart.” The second part of both disease prevention and change Prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease, first of all, we must be able to learn to identify coronary heart disease. There are many early signs of coronary artery disease, including: posterior sternum or precordial area dull pain or tightness-like pain radiating to the left shoulder and left upper arm for 3-5 minutes, relieved by itself after rest; chest tightness, palpitation, shortness of breath during physical activity, relieved by itself during rest; exercise-related headache, toothache, stomach pain, leg pain; panic, chest tightness, shortness of breath or chest pain during forceful defecation; full meal, cold or watching a thriller. chest pain and palpitation when it is cold or watching a thriller; sudden chest pain, palpitation and difficulty in breathing when sleeping; lying down at night and feeling tightness and breathlessness in the chest, which can be relieved by lying down with a high pillow or sitting up or standing up immediately; panic and chest tightness when hearing gongs, drums or other noises; repeated irregular pulse, unexplained tachycardia or bradycardia. When one of these phenomena occurs, early examination and treatment are required to confirm the diagnosis of the disease. How to identify the severity of coronary heart disease? ”If the pain is in the chest, or in the precordial region, or even if the chest pain is in the back, shortness of breath and wheezing, and cannot sleep peacefully, it is caused by paralysis of the heart veins; if the pain is irregular and caused by exertion, the disease is mild; if the pain is in the chest or in the quiet, the disease is severe; if the pain is in the direction of the heart meridian of the hand and radiates to the scapula and upper arm, the disease is mild and shallow; if the pain is outside the heart and chest and moves to the heart. If the pain starts outside the heart and moves to the heart, the condition is deeper and more serious; if the pain in the heart and chest is sudden and severe, or even persists without relief, accompanied by sweating, cold extremities, white face, purple lips, green hands and feet to the nodes, and weak or knotted pulse, the condition is critical. Regarding the treatment drugs for coronary heart disease: quick-acting heart pills move qi and activate blood, mainly for patients with early to middle stage, normal heart function and high coronary heart disease with qi stagnation and blood stasis; compound Dan Shen tablets and compound Dan Shen drops both contain cold Dan Shen and ice chips, mainly for patients with early to middle stage, normal heart function and hot type high coronary heart disease; nitrate drugs (such as nitroglycerin and heartburn) have the side effect of headache and are easy to be taken for a long time. Musk Heart Pill has the characteristics of benefiting Qi, warming Yang and treating blood vessels together, so it is more effective and has less side effects for patients with mid- to late-stage decompensated heart function or elderly patients with weak and cold constitution who have high coronary heart disease. In addition to drug treatment, the treatment of coronary heart disease also includes: the use of home oxygen machine or oxygen bag oxygen, with home electronic acupuncture instrument or acupuncture point pressure Nei Guan, Tanzhong, Foot Sanli, Tongli, Sanyinjiao and other points. The third part of the prevention of disease after the disease There is a close relationship between aging and coronary heart disease, with age, the incidence of coronary heart disease is bound to gradually increase. In Chinese medicine, ‘the kidney is the essence of the first day, and the spleen is the essence of the second day’. The spleen and kidney play a key role in human aging, and weakness of the spleen and kidney is an important factor in aging, therefore, the method of strengthening the spleen and kidney is fundamental in the treatment of coronary heart disease. How to strengthen the spleen and kidney so as to protect against coronary heart disease, traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture point therapy is very effective. “Such as moxibustion foot three li method can strengthen the spleen and stomach function, its points: in the upper part of the front outer side of the lower leg, four horizontal fingers below the outer knee eye, one horizontal finger from the front edge of the tibia, the method for moxibustion strips each time a, ignited against the acupuncture point left and right two points moxibustion until the end, one time a day. often press the Yongquan point can supplement the kidneys, Yongquan point for the kidney meridian points, its acupuncture points: in the plantar front 1/3 of the intersection of the second and third metatarsophalangeal joint slightly behind the kidneys in charge of growth and development and reproduction, often massage can increase the marrow, kidneys and strengthen Yang, strengthen the tendons and bones.” Liver imbalance is also an important part of the pathological changes of coronary heart disease, liver loss of drainage, qi stagnation can cause blood pressure to rise blood lipid elevation, etc. Qi and blood imbalance is the basic pathogenesis of angina pectoris in coronary artery disease, and the circulation of Qi and blood around the body depends not only on the promotion of heart Qi, but also on the liver to regulate. If the liver does not regulate the blood of the job, people move the blood can not be timely infusion of the meridians, the heart of the meridians lose nourishment is chest pain and panic, the brain loss of nourishment is dizziness, the limbs of the meridians loss of nourishment is weakness. Daily liver can be through food therapy, Buddha’s hand, orange, kumquat, hawthorn, Chen Pi, orange cake, yellow flowering vegetables, rose hips, buckwheat, leek, fennel greens, garlic, sorghum, knife beans, wheat, artemisia rod, green onion, kelp, seaweed, radish, etc. are liver food. In addition, knocking more liver meridians and bile meridians can also achieve the effect of nourishing the liver. For patients with coronary heart disease, it is also important to protect the body in daily life, such as: taking medication as instructed, regular review; regulating emotions, tolerance and optimism; going out in a group, carrying emergency drugs; not chasing buses, not walking in the wind and snow; angina attack, immediately stop activities, quiet rest; quit smoking and alcohol, do not inhale second-hand smoke; eat more vegetables and vegetarian food, keep bowel movements smooth; moderate exercise, do not We should pay more attention to these.
