The Lunar New Year is approaching, and it is the peak period of the company's annual meeting and friends dinner. Pushing cups and changing lamps, there are always people who inevitably drink a few more glasses. Doctors warn that drinking alcohol must be in moderation, otherwise it may cause unexpected dangers.
Recently, the emergency department of a hospital in the city has admitted several patients who had cerebrovascular accidents due to drinking, and Mr. Luo is one of them.
Drinking and greedy drinks during a dinner party, he suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage.
Mr. Luo, 49 years old, recently had a year-end dinner at the end of the year, and he drank a few more drinks as soon as he was happy. When he was drinking to his head, he suddenly felt headache and dizziness, followed by nausea and vomiting. Colleagues on the side thought he was too drunk and laughed at him.
A few minutes later, Mr. Luo wanted to stand up and wash his face and sober up, but suddenly his feet were weak and he fainted in the dark. Only then did his colleagues realize the seriousness of the problem and he was admitted to a city hospital.
A series of meticulous and meticulous examinations showed that Mr. Luo had abnormal indicators in a number of indicators, and the Department of Infectious Diseases and the Department of Nephrology of the First Hospital in the city consulted him, but he still did not find **.
Could it be an aneurysm? Li Baohua and Yang Hui, deputy chief physicians of the Department of Neurology, led the team to conduct a cranial CT examination for Mr. Luo, and found that Mr. Luo's cerebrovascular bleeding showed signs of bleeding.
The situation was urgent, and after the team led by Wang Hao, deputy director of the Department of Neurosurgery, it was decided that the operation must be carried out immediately. More than two hours later, the "time bomb" buried in Mr. Luo's skull was finally successfully removed.
Drinking, smoking, and mood swings can easily induce cerebrovascular accidents.
In retrospect, Mr. Luo's sudden illness was related to the few glasses of wine he drank.
Drinking alcohol causes blood vessels to dilate, increasing blood pressure on blood vessel walls, which can lead to ruptured aneurysms and bleeding, which can be life-threatening in severe cases. Wang Hao said that many people think that the brain aneurysm is far away from them, but in fact, it is very common, about 1 in 50 people have an unruptured brain aneurysm, but most people do not know it.
In general, small aneurysms have a low risk of rupture and usually do not cause obvious symptoms, but if the aneurysm itself is already large, it may be triggered by drinking, smoking, being emotional, exertion, or straining to defecate.
In many cases, asymptomatic brain aneurysms are found during the examination of other disorders. The formation process of cerebral aneurysm is insidious, and there can be no symptoms before or at a very young age, and once it ruptures, it is extremely dangerous and requires immediate treatment. Wang Hao reminded that especially patients with underlying cerebrovascular diseases should not only develop good living habits, but also avoid drinking and smoking, and at the same time avoid emotional agitation.
