What is the heartache?

As the saying goes, prevent diseases early, nip in the bud; It's never too late to treat a disease early. The key to heart disease prevention and treatment is "early".

So how to find heart disease at an early stage? That is, look at the face and observe the color: apart from the familiar symptoms such as palpitation and precordial pain, heart disease often has some superficial symptoms. Pay attention to these premonitory symptoms, and you can find them early and treat them early.

These body surface signs include:

◆ Shortness of breath occurs when breathing is slightly active or quiet, but it is not accompanied by cough and expectoration. This situation is likely to be a manifestation of left ventricular dysfunction.

If your face is pale, purple and indifferent, it is a dying face in the late stage of heart disease. If the face is dark red, it is a feature of rheumatic heart disease and mitral stenosis. If it is pale, it may be a sign of mitral insufficiency.

◆ If the nose is hard, it means that there is too much heart fat accumulation. If the tip of the nose is swollen, it means that the heart fat may also be swollen, or the heart disease is expanding. Besides, a red nose usually indicates a heart disease.

◆ The skin of patients with chronic heart failure and pulmonary heart disease can be dark brown or deep purple, which is related to long-term hypoxia and decreased adrenal cortex function. The skin mucosa and limbs are blue-purple, indicating that the heart lacks oxygen and the reduced blood protein in the blood increases.

◆ Patients with ear and heart have tinnitus of different degrees in the early stage. This is because the microvascular dynamics of the inner ear is abnormal. When the disease does not cause systemic reaction, the inner ear will receive a warning signal. If there are continuous wrinkles in your earlobe, it is probably caused by coronary atherosclerosis.

◆ If the head and neck protrude from the clavicle to the earlobe, if the little finger is thick, it is probably right heart insufficiency.

◆ The weather on the shoulder is obviously good, but there are bursts of soreness on the left shoulder and the inside of the left arm, which may be coronary heart disease.

◆ The fingers or toes of hands and feet are obviously thick, and the nail surface is raised like a drumstick, which is common in patients with chronic pulmonary heart disease or congenital cyanotic heart disease.

◆ Edema of lower limbs in middle-aged and elderly people is often a manifestation of venous blood return obstruction caused by cardiac insufficiency. In addition, if you often have palpitations and asthma, you can only relieve it by squatting, which is a unique manifestation of purple clamp heart disease.

Pay attention to chest tightness and palpitation

I found that many elderly people lack understanding of some of their symptoms, while some young people don't pay much attention to symptoms such as chest tightness and palpitation, and often think that it doesn't matter, just bear with it. It is these thoughts that delay the best treatment time. There is a 40-year-old college leader who is usually uncomfortable, but he doesn't pay attention to it. As a result, he died suddenly and young, which is a great pity. If he went to see a doctor in time, the result would be very different. Therefore, as long as active treatment, the cure and remission of heart disease is still very optimistic.
