Mr. Lin, 52 years old this year, has opened a small shop, and usually has the habit of smoking after meals and drinking a little wine with friends every day.
Four years ago, Mr. Lin was found to have high blood lipids during a physical examination, but he didn't feel uncomfortable, so he didn't care much about it.
However, a few days ago, when Mr. Lin was bending down to pick up something in the store, he suddenly felt dizzy and fell to the ground, and he fell unconscious.
After examination, he was diagnosed with acute cerebral infarction caused by hyperlipidemia, and unfortunately passed away because he missed the best opportunity.
The doctor reminded that when it is cold, it is also the time when cerebral infarction is most likely to occur, so you must be vigilant.
According toChina Stroke Report 2019It is reported that the incidence of cerebral infarction in China remains high, which is one of the main factors leading to the death of Chinese residents.
Reports show that one in five patients who die is a cerebral infarction. WhileThere are more than 13 million cerebral infarction patients living with disease in China
With the increasing aging of China's population, the development status of cerebral infarction will become more severe. For cerebral infarction, sufficient attention needs to be paid to it.
It is generally believed that cerebral infarction occurs only in middle-aged and elderly people over the age of 50 or 60. In fact, cerebral infarction has tended to be younger, especially people with bad habits such as alcoholism, smoking, staying up late, not liking exercise, and eating a high-oil, high-fat and high-sugar diet. These people should pay more attention to the prevention of cerebral infarction and adjust their daily routines in time.
1. Visual impairment: Blurred vision, incomplete vision, and visual field defects are common, and most of them can recover spontaneously in a short period of time.
2. Facial incoordination: When there is ischemia and hypoxia in the brain, the muscles of the face will also appear, and the motor dysfunction will manifest as uncoordinated such as crooked face and slanted eyes.
3. Vertigo symptoms: The hardening of cerebral blood vessels will lead to insufficient blood oxygen supply to the vertebrobasilar arteries, affecting the balance of nervous tissues such as the cerebellum and brainstem, resulting in vertigo.
4. The base of the tongue feels hard: Facial muscle abnormalities can cause stiffness of the tongue and difficulty in speaking, especially when you wake up in the morning, if you have a hard tongue, you should seek medical attention in time.
5. Drowsiness: Drowsiness, drowsiness and inability to restrain are all manifestations of insufficient blood oxygen in the brain and hypoxia of the central nervous system, and drowsiness will also worsen with the degree of cerebral arteriosclerosis.
There are many causes of cerebral infarction, and most of them are related to the accumulation of bad lifestyle habits. If you want to prevent cerebral infarction, these 3 bad habits have to be changed after meals.
1. Sitting for a long time after eating
Many middle-aged and elderly people like to sit down immediately after eating, and do not move as soon as they sit down. This results in a slower flow rate and a corresponding increase in the viscosity of the blood.
In the long run, excess energy accumulates in the blood and cannot be consumed, resulting in an increase in cholesterol that can easily form plaques, which in turn leads to cardiovascular disease.
It is recommended to get up and exercise every 30 minutes after eating, and exercise at least twice a week.
2. Smoking after meals
Some people say that "a cigarette after a meal is a race against a living fairy", and the old smoking gun is used to having a cigarette after a meal, but in fact, smoking after a meal is more harmful than usual.
Professor Yang Li of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciencesnoted that after eating the human bodyGastrointestinal peristalsis and blood circulation are accelerated, the activity of the tissues is enhanced, and when smoking is done, the lungs and tissues of the whole bodyMore harmful substances will be inhaled, bringing greater damage to various organs.
3. Sleep immediately after eating
Sleep right after the meal, not to mention more leisure. But this is extremely harmful to the body, especially for:Obese people or the elderly over 65 years old, patients with cardiovascular diseases
After eating, the blood circulation in the digestive tract is relatively vigorous, and the blood flow to the brain is less, and it is even more so when you are still during sleepIt is easy to aggravate the lack of blood supply and oxygen supply to the brain
It is recommended not to sleep after mealsGo to bed again after at least half an hour
Cerebral infarction is not so "unexpected", the most important prevention is actually in our daily life, if you have the above bad habits, you must correct them as soon as possible, and maintaining a good life routine is the basis for preventing all diseases.
