1"head cut pattern""cerebral infarction pattern"
It is true that
Case sharing
Case sharing
Mr. Sun is in his forties, but he has cerebral infarction symptoms twice and was sent to the hospital by an ambulance.
What’s strange is that his “cerebral infarction” comes and goes without a trace. The symptoms are very obvious every time the attack: walking is like stepping on cotton, stiff and weak limbs, dizziness and headache... I checked with an instrument but nothing happened.
There is no lesions in the cerebral blood vessels. So how do the symptoms of cerebral infarction come from?
When he was having a haircut, he noticed several asymmetrical horizontal lines appearing on the back of his head. Someone reminded him that this kind of neck pattern is also called "cerebral infarction pattern"! Without intervention, it will soon develop into a real cerebral infarction.
Director Jian Guofan believes that the statement of "cerebral infarction" has certain scientific basis.
On the one hand, like Mr. Sun's neck lines, there is a lot of fat, which means Mr. Sun's Hyperlipid may be very high , which is easy to induce cerebral infarction.
On the other hand, The fat in the neckline compresses the nerves and reduces blood supply to the hind brain . The temporary cerebral blood supply of is insufficient , which is also very similar to the symptoms of cerebral infarction.
However, people have neck lines at an age. How to distinguish healthy neck lines from neck lines that reflect disease?
2asymmetric neck lines
is the signal of disease
See the director's summary: asymmetric neck lines are the signal of disease. can determine the risk of disease by the degree and position of asymmetry.
This neckline suggests hypertension
Asymmetric necklines in patients with hypertension are often in the upper part of the back neck:
The reason why necklines appear is because the at the junction of the patient's craniocerebral junction is asymmetric on both sides of the atlasal tooth gap.
This will compress the surrounding nerves and blood vessels, causing hypertension.
The same reason can also cause migraine, dizziness, unilateral vision loss, insomnia, tinnitus . Therefore, patients with hypertension caused by neck problems often have the above symptoms.
The neck lines corresponding to six diseases
See the director's summary: The high and low positions of the asymmetric neck lines are consistent with the high and low positions of the symptoms .
Because the nerves passing through the neck, the high places control the head and the low places control the chest. Therefore, neck lines at high places often correspond to brain symptoms, and shoulder symptoms at low places often correspond to shoulder symptoms.
Uncles and aunts can compare the pictures below to see whose neck lines are similar to, and maybe you can find long-lost health loopholes!
6 types of neck cross-sections that reflect diseases
First picture The neck lines of cervical lines are mainly in the upper section, and patients are prone to headaches, tinnitus, throat and teeth problems. If the right neck line is lower than the left side, it means that the muscle tension of the shoulder and neck is unbalanced and the muscles are prone to strain.
The second picture is a transverse neck line on the upper part of the right side, indicating migraine, blood pressure problems, insomnia and anxiety, right eye pain or unilateral vision loss.
The third picture The transverse neck lines of cervical vertebra appear in the lower part of the cervical vertebra, which is more likely to cause pain and numbness in the upper limbs.
The fourth picture has two neck lines, one up and the other. It means that you are prone to head and chest discomfort. Pay attention to prevent arrhythmia and abnormal blood pressure (hypertension or hypotension ).
Fifth picture Upper neck lines are asymmetric, prone to hypertension, postpartum headache, insomnia, and reduced vision. The lower neck lines are concentrated on the left side, which is prone to pain and numbness in the left upper limbs, unstable blood pressure, and arrhythmia.
The sixth picture The neck streaks of the neck are in the middle of the neck, and the sides are asymmetric. Prone to shoulder and neck soreness. If you already have stiff hands, pain or numbness on one side of your upper limbs, you need to pay special attention.
