On January 1, 2022, Ms. Chen from Jiangsu Province was sent to the hospital for sudden acute cerebral hemorrhage. After rescue, Ms. Chen temporarily saved her life and was sent to the ICU for observation.
It turned out that Ms. Chen usually had high blood pressure and had not been paid attention to and treated. Before this illness, she played mahjong all night, because she was too excited to win, which led to this ending.
Coincidentally, just a week ago during the Spring Festival holiday, a sixty-year-old man in Wenchang, Hainan Province, was urgently sent to the hospital for sudden acute cerebral hemorrhage.
Recalling the scene at that time, lao Bo's family still has palpitations:
"It would bleed a lot, and the doctor said that if it was half an hour late, it might really kill you."
Like Ms. Chen, Lao Bo was also playing mahjong before he fell ill, and when he played, he suddenly convulsed and fell on the table. But unlike Ms. Chen, Lao Bo is usually in good health, and there is nothing unusual about his blood pressure.
Although it was thrilling, they at least saved their lives, and they were lucky. And some people, they are not so lucky.
Mrs. Li, 60 years old, went to the doctor a few days ago because of a sudden headache, and through the examination of the doctor, she found that her head had a large area of cerebral infarction and brain hernia.
Although the operation was performed immediately, Mrs. Li eventually died of a serious illness.
According to Mrs. Li's son's recollection, the old lady herself has a history of hypertension, and Mrs. Li was playing mahjong before the onset of the disease. Because she suddenly touched a good card, Mrs. Li's hands and feet began to be out of control after she became emotional, and at the same time, there was severe pain in her head. After the pain, Mrs. Li fainted and fell to the ground.
The root cause of this tragedy is that Mrs. Li herself has high blood pressure, and when playing mahjong, her blood pressure rose rapidly in a short period of time due to emotional agitation, and there was a blood clot that fell off, resulting in cerebral infarction.
Although spring has begun, the temperature is still very low, and it is even snowing in many places. Coupled with the continuous improvement of today's living standards, cerebral infarction has shown a trend of getting younger and younger.
When you are still afraid of cancer,
Cerebral infarction has been ranked in,
The first to cause the death of the inhabitants of the mainland.
What's even more frightening is that
The treatment of acute cerebral infarction is a race against the clock.
Intravenous thrombolytic treatment within 4-5 hours,
Arterial interventional surgery within 6 hours,
The more procrastination,
The more dangerous it is!
Although the Spring Festival holiday has passed,
But many people's lives are still in the joy of the Spring Festival.
Staying up late, overeating,
Playing cards and mahjong and other entertainment methods are still in progress,
So be sure to be wary of cerebral infarction!
The onset of these symptoms,
Beware of the brain's distress signals!
Sudden dizziness or headache
This is the most common symptom before cerebral infarction, especially when waking up early in the morning, after fatigue or after bathing. If you have more than 5 repeated dizziness or headaches in one or two days, you must be alert to the possibility of cerebral hemorrhage or cerebral infarction.
Blurred vision
Because cerebral infarction can cause damage to the optic nerve, resulting in retinal ischemia and hypoxia, patients with cerebral infarction often have blurred vision or sudden blackening in front of the eyes. However, this symptom may return to normal after a few seconds.
Abnormal gait, crooked mouth and eyes
This is the most obvious symptom before cerebral infarction, and patients usually have a sudden change in gait, or numbness on one side of the face, crooked mouth and eyes, etc.
This is because the brain, as the general conductor of the body, when the brain is abnormal, the behavior of our body will also be abnormal.
Yawning constantly
The vast majority of patients with ischemic cerebral thrombosis will have a constant yawn in the first 5 to 10 days of onset.
Abnormal blood pressure
Before cerebral infarction, it is not necessarily a rapid rise in blood pressure, it may also be a rapid decline, so when blood pressure suddenly rises to more than 200/120mmHg, or drops below 80/50mmHg, it is necessary to be highly vigilant for the appearance of cerebral thrombosis.
One side drooled
This is also a common manifestation of cerebral infarction patients, especially drooling while sleeping, and still facing one side. Because the cerebral blood vessels of patients with cerebral infarction have an infarction, which causes muscle nerve incompatibility, it has a great impact on the oral cavity, which in turn will cause drooling or difficulty swallowing.
Prevent cerebral infarction, focus on yourself!
Don't rush to get dressed when you get up
Do not rush to get dressed in the morning, because the body is still in a resting state at this time, if it suddenly enters the active state, resulting in the sympathetic nerve being activated in a short period of time, it is easy to occur postural hypertension.
Stabilize mood
Emotional ups and downs should not be too big, whether it is an unhappy thing or a happy thing, we must stabilize the emotion. Because many cerebral infarctions and strokes occur, they are related to emotional fluctuations. When mood swings are high, our adrenaline is released in large quantities, which leads to a rapid rise in blood pressure and stimulates blood clots to fall off.
In addition, if you have high blood pressure and other underlying diseases, you must not stay up late to play cards and mahjong, and do not have greater emotional fluctuations when playing cards and mahjong.
Control diet
Although the living standard is now better, especially during the New Year, it is a big fish and meat, but it is still necessary to pay attention to reasonable arrangements for diet. Try to be light and eat less high-fat, high-cholesterol and high-sugar foods. Strictly control salt and oil intake.
Walk more
As previously stated by WHO, walking is one of the best exercises known. Because walking can maintain aerobic metabolism, enhance cardiopulmonary function, and promote blood circulation throughout the body and prevent blood lipid accumulation.
Regular medical check-ups
Whether it is young people or middle-aged and elderly, they must develop the habit of regular physical examination. On the one hand, stabilize blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipids, on the other hand, if the body appears abnormal, you must immediately seek medical treatment!
