Uncle Zhang, 71, is a retired teacher.
One morning, he suddenly felt dizzy, vomiting, and weakness in his right limb. Seeing this, his wife, Aunt Li, immediately called 120 to take him to the hospital.
In the emergency room, Dr. Wang, the doctor on duty, received Uncle Zhang. After taking a detailed medical history, Dr. Wang immediately arranged for Uncle Zhang to have a head CT examination.
Soon, the results of the examination came back - acute infarction in the area supplying the left middle cerebral artery. Dr. Wang immediately decided to administer thrombolytic therapy for Uncle Zhang.
After the operation, Uncle Zhang was transferred to the neurology ward.
When the attending doctor, Dr. Zhao, came to check on the ward, he found that Uncle Zhang's expression was gloomy, so he asked with concern, "Uncle Zhang, are you in a bad mood?" The surgery was successful and you are recovering well, so you should be happy. "
Uncle Zhang sighed and said, "Alas, how can I still get this disease at my age?" "
Dr. Zhao understood Uncle Zhang's mood and patiently explained, "Uncle Zhang, cerebral infarction is indeed related to lifestyle habits, but age is also an important factor.
As we age, blood vessels gradually harden, blood viscosity increases, and the risk of cerebral infarction increases dramatically. "
Uncle Zhang asked curiously, "Doctor, do I still have any bad habits?" You give me pointers. "
Dr. Zhao smiled and said, "From your medical records, you have a history of high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia, which are both high-risk factors for cerebral infarction. Also, do you often stay up late? I heard from the nurse that you became ill in the early hours of the morning on the day you were admitted to the hospital. "
Uncle Zhang slapped his thigh: "I like to read books since I retired, and I often see late at night, and sometimes I don't go to bed until two or three o'clock in the morning." "
Doctor Zhao sighed and said, "Uncle Zhang, it's really not good to stay up late, especially for the elderly.
In addition, staying up late can easily induce arrhythmias, blood pressure fluctuations and other problems, which are the causes of cerebral infarction. "
Uncle Zhang was thoughtful and said, "Doctor, is there anything else that needs attention?" "
Dr. Zhao continued, "Diet is also crucial. I know you like light, and that's good.
In addition, some antioxidant foods, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts, etc., should also be eaten regularly to help protect the health of blood vessels. "
Uncle Zhang nodded again and again: "In the future, I will definitely eat well, avoid eating in moderation, and eat less and more often." "
Dr. Zhao smiled with satisfaction: "Uncle Zhang, it's great that you can think like this." In addition to diet, moderate exercise should not be missing. You like to exercise, and it's a habit to keep up.
Uncle Zhang said gratefully, "Doctor, you are so right. I must adjust my work and rest, eat reasonably, keep exercising, and stay away from cerebral infarction! "
Uncle Zhang's story is thought-provoking.
Many elderly people know that staying up late hurts their bodies, but they still go their own way; I know that a light diet is good for my health, but I often overeat; I understand the importance of exercise, but I am often lazy......
Cerebral infarction, as the "number one killer" that threatens the health of the elderly, is increasing with the aging of the population.
According to statistics, the incidence of cerebral infarction in mainland China is as high as 2.7% in people over 55 years old, and it is increasing year by year. In the face of this grim situation, the elderly should be more vigilant, adjust their lifestyles, and stay away from cerebral infarction.
1. Develop good habits of work and rest. Going out day and night, staying up late to chase dramas, these are all things that the elderly should put an end to.
Older people should go to bed early and wake up early to allow their biological clock to adapt to their natural rhythms in order to truly live out their old age.
2. Pay attention to a balanced diet. Some elderly people pursue the so-called "light", but ignore the comprehensiveness of nutrition.
In fact, a simple vegetarian diet is not healthy and can lead to malnutrition and weakened immunity.
The diet of the elderly should be varied, not only light and less oily, but also supplemented with high-quality protein and antioxidants, such as deep-sea fish, nuts, fresh fruits and vegetables, etc., which can help prevent cerebrovascular diseases.
3. Insist on moderate exercise. Exercise is the "good medicine" for the elderly. It can not only strengthen the body, but also promote cerebral blood perfusion and prevent cerebral infarction.
But the exercise should be gradual and within your means. Some elderly people blindly pursue high intensity, which leads to a sudden rise in blood pressure and induces cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents.
In the face of cerebral infarction, we must not only be vigilant, but also learn to prevent it.
Developing good lifestyle habits, a balanced diet, and moderate physical activity are far more meaningful than after-the-fact treatment. Only by starting from daily life and changing from bit by bit can we truly stay away from the haze of cerebral infarction and enjoy a healthy life in old age.
Write at the end
Let's take Uncle Zhang as a warning, seize the moment, adjust our lives, and let healthy sunshine shine into the hearts of every elderly person. Let's work together to create a better future for "healthy ageing".
