In an advertising agency in the city, Dong Kai is a senior designer.
Years of work have allowed him to accumulate a wealth of experience, and it has also made him accustomed to sitting in front of the computer for a long time, often sitting all day. In recent days, Dong Kai has felt some dull pain in his left arm. He thought it was fatigue caused by long hours of work, and he didn't take it seriously
One night, when Dong Kai was working overtime, the pain in his left arm suddenly intensified, accompanied by a dull feeling in his chest. He sensed something was wrong and immediately called the emergency services.
An ambulance arrived quickly and took him to the hospital. After an urgent examination, the doctor told him that he was on the verge of acute myocardial infarction, but fortunately he was sent to the hospital in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Dr. Bai, a cardiovascular specialist who received the consultation, explained Dong Kai's condition in detail. He told Dong Kai that many people mistakenly believe that heart problems only cause chest pain.
But in reality, myocardial infarction can also manifest itself through pain in other areas, the most common being pain in the left arm. This pain is radiating pain due to ischemia of the heart, especially in the left arm during signaling.
Dr. Bai also added that it is not just myocardial infarction that some other vascular diseases can cause similar pain. In order to make Dong Kai more aware of these diseases, Dr. Bai recounted some of the cases he had been exposed to.
A middle-aged man suffered from severe coronary heart disease due to long-term smoking, which led to hardening of the arteries. At first, he only felt occasional chest tightness and pain in his left arm, but he didn't pay attention to it. It wasn't until a severe chest pain and dyspnea took him to the emergency room that he was found to have suffered a severe myocardial infarction and required immediate surgery.
Dr. Bai explains that the early symptoms of vascular disease are often overlooked because they often manifest as mild, unspecified pain, such as pain in the arms, back or legs.
But it is these seemingly ordinary pains that may actually be the body sending a distress signal. If problems are identified and dealt with early, many serious consequences can be avoided.
To prevent these vascular diseases, Dr. Bai gives several suggestions. The first is to maintain a healthy lifestyle, avoid sitting for long periods of time, and get plenty of exercise.
Prolonged inactivity can lead to poor blood circulation and increase the risk of vascular disease. The second is to quit smoking and limit alcohol, tobacco and alcohol are very damaging to blood vessels, and long-term smoking or heavy alcohol consumption are important triggers for vascular diseases.
Dr. Bai also said that eating is also important. He asked Dong Kai to eat less foods high in fat and cholesterol, which can make blood vessels more elastic and reduce the risk of blood clots.
Dr. Bai reminded Dong Kai that regular physical examinations are very important, which can detect problems such as blood lipids, blood sugar, and blood pressure early, and deal with them early to prevent deterioration. He suggested that Dong Kai should do a detailed physical examination after a long time, and all aspects are particularly important to ensure good health.
After listening to Dr. Bai's explanation, Dong Kai had a new understanding of his health condition. He decided to change his lifestyle and started focusing on exercise and diet.
Avoid sitting still for long periods of time and strictly control smoking and drinking habits. At the same time, he plans to go to the hospital for regular check-ups to ensure that his blood vessels are healthy.
A few months later, Dong Kai came to the hospital again for a follow-up. Dr. Bai was relieved to find that Dong Kai's health had improved significantly, his blood pressure and blood lipids were within the normal range, and his weight had also decreased.
Dong Kai said that he now insists on exercising every day, quitting smoking and drinking, and has made his body stronger through a healthy diet and regular work and rest.
Dr. Bai told Dong Kai that staying healthy is a lifelong affair that requires long-term effort and maintenance. He encouraged Dong Kai to continue to maintain good living habits, check his body regularly, and detect and solve health problems early.
With the help of Dr. Bai, Dong Kai successfully got rid of the risk of myocardial infarction and regained a healthy life. He is grateful for Dr. Pak's professional guidance and realises that he has learned a lot of important health knowledge during this experience. This experience not only taught him the importance of health, but also made him determined to continue to live a good lifestyle and no longer ignore the signals sent by his body.
Dong Kai now insists on exercising every day, paying attention to his diet, and having regular physical examinations, and his mood has become happier and more positive. He is not only grateful for Dr. Bai's help, but also shares these health ideas with his friends and family, hoping that everyone will pay attention to health and stay away from diseases. He knows that only when he is healthy can he truly enjoy a good life.
