Wang Luoyu is a 54-year-old company executive who has always paid attention to his health, never smoked, never drank alcohol, and did not have the "three highs" of high blood pressure, high blood lipids and diabetes. He insisted on morning jogging for many years and kept in good shape, however, one morning not long ago, he suddenly felt a splitting headache and vomited, and his family rushed him to the hospital.
In the hospital's emergency room, Wang Luoyu underwent a series of tests, and a CT scan showed a brain hemorrhage, which doctors diagnosed as a cerebral hemorrhage. This bad news hit Wang Luoyu and his family like a thunderbolt from the blue. The doctor arranged for him to be hospitalized immediately and asked him in detail about his medical history and lifestyle habits.
Wang Luoyu said to the doctor: "I have always paid attention to my health, insisted on exercising, and had no bad habits, how could I suddenly have a cerebral hemorrhage?"
"Cerebral hemorrhage is an acute cerebrovascular disease that often starts very suddenly, and although you are usually very health-conscious, there are some risk factors that can be easily overlooked," the doctor explains. For example, if you are middle-aged and elderly, your blood vessels are gradually aging, and you are stressed at work and stressed for a long time, which may induce cerebral hemorrhage. "
Wang Luoyu suddenly realized that although he was healthy, there were indeed some hidden dangers, and the doctor told him that he must be careful of the following three things in the future:
First, control blood pressure, which is the number one killer of cerebral hemorrhage. Even if there is no hypertension, middle-aged and elderly people should have regular check-ups, intervene in time if abnormalities are found, pay attention to a light diet, reduce salt and fat intake, and take antihypertensive drugs if necessary.
Second, to relieve stress, long-term mental tension will lead to sympathetic nerve excitation and increase the burden on blood vessels. To learn to arrange work and life reasonably, relax moderately, listen to music, travel and vacation, chat with friends, etc., to find a suitable way to relieve stress.
Third, scientific exercise, although exercise is good for health, but too much intensity and too long time may be counterproductive. In particular, some strenuous exercise will suddenly increase blood flow to the brain, which may induce cerebral hemorrhage, so it is recommended to choose aerobic exercise of moderate intensity, such as brisk walking, swimming, etc., 3-5 times a week, about 30 minutes each time.
After a period of treatment and recuperation, his condition gradually began to improve, and his mental state slowly recovered, and he was finally able to go home from the hospital. He realized that a healthy lifestyle is not only about not smoking, drinking too much, and exercising more, but also needs to be well-balanced and pay attention to the comprehensive conditioning of body and mind.
This case is a wake-up call for us: acute cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral hemorrhage have been on the rise in recent years, and even seemingly healthy people are not spared, so we must pay attention to our physical changes, prevention is better than cure, we must be vigilant, pay attention to our own hidden dangers, and learn to manage health scientifically. Only by working hard from both physical and psychological aspects can we stay away from the threat of cerebrovascular diseases as much as possible and embrace a healthy and long life.
