Adolescents must be accompanied by a parent.
In our daily lives, we often hear the terms "heart disease" and "cardiac neurosis". However, many people may not be clear about the specific differences between them, and may even confuse the two. In order to let everyone better understand and pay attention to their own heart health, this article will explain the differences between cardiac neurosis and heart disease in simple terms.
First of all, let's start from the definition, cardiac disease is a kind of pathological state that affects the structure or function of the heart, including coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia, heart failure and other diseases, its causes are diverse, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking, genetic factors, etc., and often accompanied by obvious clinical symptoms and physiological indicators abnormalities, such as chest pain, dyspnea, electrocardiogram changes, etc.
Cardiac neurosis, also known as functional cardiac discomfort, is a disorder of the cardiovascular system caused by an imbalance in autonomic regulation without obvious organic lesions. The main symptoms of the patient are palpitation, chest tightness, shortness of breath, precordial pain, etc., which are often aggravated by mood swings and increased mental stress, but after a detailed cardiac examination, it is found that there is no structural heart disease.
Difference 1: ** and pathological basis.
Heart disease is mainly caused by substantial lesions of the heart, such as coronary artery stenosis, myocardial damage, etc.; Cardiac neurosis, on the other hand, is a symptom caused by a dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system, and there is no organic damage to the heart itself.
Difference 2: Clinical manifestations and diagnosis.
In addition to typical cardiac symptoms, patients with heart disease are usually supported by objective examination evidence such as electrocardiogram, echocardiography**, and coronary angiography; For patients with cardiac neurosis, although they also have similar symptoms of cardiac discomfort, the results of various heart-related examinations are often normal, and the symptoms are more related to psychological, emotional and environmental factors.
Difference 3: ** and prognosis.
The ** plan for heart disease is determined according to the specific type of disease, which may include drugs**, interventional surgery, lifestyle modification, etc., if not effectively controlled in time, the condition may gradually worsen, and even threaten life; Cardiac neurosis** is more focused on psychological counseling, behavior**, relaxation training, as well as psychological counseling and drug assistance if necessary**, by improving living habits and psychological state, most patients can be alleviated symptoms, and the prognosis is relatively good.
Although cardiac neurosis and heart disease are both related to the heart, there are significant differences in terms of **, pathological changes, clinical manifestations and **methods. Understanding the difference between the two helps us correctly identify the signals sent by the body, so that we can seek medical attention in time, choose a reasonable plan, and protect our "heart" health. At the same time, it also reminds us that we should not ignore the importance of mental health while focusing on physical health.
