Perhaps many people have seen such news:
Some people have a toothache after taking anti-inflammatory drugs for a few days is not good, originally went to the hospital to see the teeth, but suddenly because of myocardial infarction rescue!
Some people find stomach pain and go to the gastroenterology department for gastroscopy, but before they can finish the examination, their hearts suddenly stop beating.
Some people feel that the throat is uncomfortable to go to the throat, and after saying the symptoms, the doctor asks him to do an electrocardiogram.
In fact, the above patients who seem to have nothing to do with heart disease, the real disease is angina!
……
Most people think that angina is pain in the heart, but in fact, angina may manifest as any part from head to toe, and if it is allowed to develop, it is likely to lead to myocardial infarction.
How should we identify angina based on atypical symptoms?
It's important to remember the three judgment methods that the doctor summarized!
1: Look at the symptoms
Angina can radiate to almost any part of the lower limbs, such as pain in the upper chest, sore throat, pain in the left arm, etc., don't think that angina, is the pain in the heart, or palpitations, precordial discomfort.
There are many elderly diabetic patients, angina attack performance is shortness of breath after activity, there is no chest tightness chest pain symptoms, but it is easy to be mistaken for cardiac insufficiency.
2: Seizure time
The onset of angina does not last long, generally disappears quickly, about 3 to 10 minutes, not more than 15 minutes, if the heart pain a day or last for several hours, then it is certainly not caused by angina.
3: Instrument check
At present, the most direct way to judge angina is the electrocardiogram and CT, the ECG recorded during the onset of the disease can help the doctor more accurately judge, if the ECG is measured after taking the drug, it is difficult to find abnormalities.
Developing the habit of measuring ECG regularly is key to effective prevention and early detection of angina.
Doctor reminds: 5 first aid methods to learn, or can "save lives"
1: Most patients in the angina attack, are in a state of overwork or emotional agitation, so once the onset of the disease, should be the first time to soothe the patient's emotions, let them calm down, lie down nearby, or take a semi-recumbent position, so that the patient feels the lightest pain position is appropriate;
2: You should immediately take a piece of emergency medicine, let the patient take it under the tongue, as long as it is angina instead of myocardial infarction, then in about one or two minutes can reduce the pain;
3: When angina attacks, there is no emergency medicine around, you can use your fingers to pinch the acupuncture points, you can also press the sore part of the arm, these can be regarded as a more effective first aid method;
4: It is necessary to quickly call the emergency telephone, and clearly explain the patient's condition and the address of occurrence, so that the ambulance personnel can arrive at the scene as soon as possible;
5: In the process of waiting for the ambulance, the patient's vital signs should be processed at all times, and if the patient is found to have respiratory arrest, artificial respiration should be carried out in time.
What causes angina?
1: Chinese medicine believes that excessive food is fat and sweet, or addictive to tobacco and alcohol, resulting in spleen and stomach damage, poor transportation, accumulation of wet into phlegm, the upper offender of the area of cardiothoracic clearance, chest yang loss, stagnation of blood cancer, heart pulse occlusion, into chest paralysis, phlegm for a long time, phlegm cancer mutual obstruction, can form chest paralysis heartache stubborn disease, which is a common cause of angina.
2: Many patients with angina think that the physique has always been very good, so the lack of awareness of heart disease prevention, but also a common cause of angina, in fact, many people usually have more than once mild symptoms, but have been ignored, only a very small number of people have no feeling, it should be said that most of the angina before the onset of angina is a precursor.
3: Hemoconcentration is also a common cause of angina, some patients in order to reduce the number of urine, before going to bed and at night do not dare to drink water, coupled with some elderly kidney concentration function poor nocturia more, resulting in blood concentration and viscous, circulatory resistance increased, heart load aggravation caused by angina attack.
