As the saying goes: if you have money or no money, go home for the New Year.
For Chinese who are working outside the country to study, going home for the Chinese New Year is the deepest expectation.
During the New Year period, due to the difference from the usual work life, the pace of life has suddenly slowed down, and all kinds of eating and drinking, reunion dinners, etc., will naturally ignore some health details.
Especially for patients with cerebral infarction, the incidence rate during the New Year is 2-3 times more, and every year the emergency department of the Spring Festival hospital will lead to a climax of cerebral infarction.
Cerebral infarction, the most important thing is to do a good job of prevention
As one of the most important organs of the human body, the brain carries a large part of the body's energy to work and run, and about 15% of the body's blood needs to provide logistics for the brain alone.
Once the brain's blood supply system "malfunctions", it will cause cerebral infarction, and patients need to face a situation of 3 highs and 2 lows---- high risk of disease, high risk of death, high risk of disability, low chance of survival and low quality of life.
Therefore, during the Spring Festival, in order to avoid disappointment, cerebral infarction patients also need to do a good job of relevant prevention, timely observation, and timely treatment.
The occurrence of cerebral infarction is not accidental, and if the following four abnormalities are found in the body, it needs to be paid attention to.
First, there are frequent mobility disorders
The brain controls the body's nervous system, and blood vessels provide nutrients to the brain.
When the blood vessels in the brain are blocked, it will affect the central nervous system of the human body, triggering the body's mobility disorders, such as numbness on one side of the body, limping when walking, etc., and when it is serious, it will also cause brain edema, which will have a serious impact on the body.
Therefore, when the manifestations of this active disorder are found, it is necessary to check and confirm the diagnosis in time.
Second, there is a transient blackness in front of the eyes
In addition to the brain can control the central nervous system, but also can control the optic nerve of the eye, when the blood vessels in the brain are blocked loudly, the eye will not get enough blood supply, and the symptoms of vision loss and blurred vision will occur.
Clinical studies have shown that this condition generally occurs on the eve of cerebral infarction.
When the eye clearly feels that the blood supply is abnormal, it should be paid attention to, and it should be treated in time to avoid atrophy of the optic nerve and even blindness.
Third, yawn for days
Usually, it is normal to yawn occasionally due to poor rest, but if you yawn for days, you need to be vigilant about the problem of cerebral blood vessel blockage.
When the blood circulation of the brain is abnormal, the oxygen supplied by the tissues of the brain is reduced, and when the oxygen supply is insufficient, the brain directs the body to obtain more oxygen by yawning.
Fourth, often dizziness and headache
When the blood vessels in the brain are blocked, the brain cannot get enough oxygen and blood supply, which will lead to insufficient oxygen supply to the brain, resulting in dizziness, nausea and vomiting.
During the Spring Festival, diet is the most important
Because during the New Year, it is inevitable that big fish and meat are needed, so many people often indulge in diet, and excessive high-energy diet will lead to blood vessel lesions, which will induce cerebral infarction.
In particular, the human body consumes too much fat, not only will lead to weight gain, but also affect the health of blood vessels, appropriate consumption of high-fat foods can help supplement the nutrients and energy needed by the human body.
If long-term large-scale intake, it will lead to an increase in lipids in the blood, so that the speed of blood flow slows down, not only will damage the health of blood vessels, but also reduce the elasticity of blood vessels, in the long run, will also increase the risk of blood clots, cerebral infarction and other diseases.
When the body appears above these abnormalities, we must pay enough attention, these manifestations are likely to be the signal given by cerebral infarction, should be checked in time to confirm the diagnosis, so as not to cause more serious consequences.
In daily life, we should also pay attention to more rest, stay up less late, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and adhere to appropriate exercise, which is very helpful for preventing cerebral infarction.
After all, the most important thing for the New Year is to be healthy and happy, isn't it?
