"Luckily, I didn't work overtime today, so I came back early, otherwise I would become an 'orphan'." In the ward, the little girl Gao looked at her father lying on the bed and said, "
Xiao Gao usually works overtime until 9 or 10 pm. It is rare to get off work on time that day. When she entered the door, she saw her father covering her chest and slumping on the ground in the living room. She quickly called the emergency number to send her to the hospital.
The doctor found that Lao Gao had acute myocardial infarction . After the emergency surgery, the situation was still ideal. After detailed consultation, the doctor believed that in addition to the age factor, Lao Gao's myocardial infarction was unhealthy with him, and lacked exercise Related. In addition, Lao Gao is fat and has high blood lipids , which causes blood clots in his body.
Lao Gao is a single father. When his child was young, his work and children were all about him. He only wanted to fill his stomach. When Xiao Gao graduated from university and entered society, he was busy with work. Lao Gao often ate some casually at home alone. Sometimes he was too lazy to cook, so he cut some of his favorite food in the street restaurant, such as pork head and braised large intestine , and watched TV and drank it until late at night. ml3. Over time, thrombosis is generated.
The blood clot in the human body is the "culprit" , which occurs in myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction . So, where does the thrombosis come from and how does it form?
1. How does thrombosis form? What are the dangers? Why can hands and feet "predict"?
Under normal circumstances, there are two types of that are mutually restrained by , namely coagulation substances and anticoagulation substances .
coagulation substance can make platelets gather into a block to play the role of stopping ; anticoagulation substances have the effect of anticoagulation and preventing thrombosis .
Usually, the two have always been in the state of dynamic balance , so it is not easy to form thrombus. If there is an accident in the blood vessel, it can also stop bleeding, so as to protect the health of the human body. However, when blood vessels are damaged by , blood flow is slow and blood coagulation is caused by clotting. Unexpected conditions such as lesions in the sub-lesion will cause hyperactivity of coagulation and to appear prone to thrombosis.
Take the elderly as an example. It is because blood vessel aging and the blood vessel wall of is damaged. is more susceptible to aphrosclerosis, hypertension , diabetes and other diseases. The inner wall of vascular wall is damaged due to aging, which makes thrombin "reinforce" quickly, promoting the formation of thrombin , and at the same time, anti- The reduction of coagulation substances has formed a situation where coagulation substances are "only the whole family". At this time, it is easy for to induce thrombosis to form .
In the state of easy thrombosis, the human body is prone to induce myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, lower limb vascular disease and other diseases. And thrombosis is almost without any symptoms and perception . It is generally located in the circulatory system such as artery, veins, capillaries and other circulatory system .
Among them, artery thrombosis is the most common , such as hyperlipidemia, hypertension, hyperglycemia , obesity, genetic factors, disordered lifestyle, etc. are all high-risk factors for to form arterial thrombosis . And high-risk factors for venous thrombosis high-risk factors for include varicose veins, "three highs", infection, long-term standing or sitting for a long time, etc.
According to research data, 80% of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is caused by thrombosis formation in blood vessels. Deaths caused by thrombosis have accounted for 251% of the total deaths in the world tml3, or even far exceeds the death toll caused by tumors, .
Like arterial thrombosis in the lower limbs, there is a risk of gangrene; coronary thrombosis can lead to heart infarction; renal arterial thrombosis may lead to uremia ; cerebral arterial thrombosis may induce stroke ; fundus arterial thrombosis increases the risk of blindness, etc.
The reason why hands and feet can "predict" thrombosis is because the activity of the limbs is most closely related to the control of the brain , and the brain needs to transmit signals to "direct" the limbs to make movements.If has a thrombosis in the brain of , then abnormal will appear in the limbs of . So what do such physical "abnormality" mainly refer to?
2. The blood clot is coming, and hands and feet are prophets! Pay attention to these 4 symptoms!
It is also mentioned above that blood clots and hands and feet are also related. When these 4 symptoms appear in the body, be careful of blood clots coming to you:
. Hands and feet are weak, legs and feet swelling and painfulAfter overwork, hands and feet are weak. However, if you frequently experience hands and feet fatigue while resting well, you should be careful, which may be a warning signal for thrombosis. This is because thrombosis will hinder the delivery of and nutrients in the limbs. In severe cases, will also be imbalanced in the pace of and fall into the air.
If there is sudden swelling and pain in on one side of the leg, and it is particularly obvious when walking, beware of whether venous thrombosis is causing trouble. This is because the venous return is not smooth, causing venous stagnation of blood in the legs and feet, which then compresses the surrounding tissues, causing swelling and pain in the legs and feet. This situation occurs in
, and you need to go to the vascular surgery department for examination in time.
3, numbness of hands and feet
Once a blood clot forms in the human body, it will affect the blood supply to the limbs, slowing down the blood circulation of , resulting in insufficient local blood supply, causing numbness of the hands and feet and tongue of . This is like suppressing hands and feet for a long time while sleeping, and blood circulates in the pressed area and causing numbness and pain.
Severe numbness can also lead to stroke or cerebral infarction. Therefore, when numbness of hands and feet caused by thrombosis occurs, treatment must be carried out in time to avoid the occurrence of cerebral infarction or myocardial infarction.
4, Intermittent claudication
A common symptom of deep vein thrombosis is intermittent claudication. When the blood vessel is blocked by a thrombus, it leads to abnormal blood supply to lower limbs and lack of blood oxygen . It is often accompanied by symptoms of muscle soreness while walking.
In short, when the above symptoms occur, be careful. "Prevent and treat" blood clots, preventing is greater than treating! Let’s talk about how to prevent the formation of thrombosis from the two aspects of prevention and treatment.
3. Which people are prone to "tie"?
Thrombosis in different parts of the site will lead to different consequences, and the treatment methods required are also different. To "treat" a blood clot, you must first know where its "nest" is. Thrombosis is most likely to form blockage in the heart, brain and lungs.
Cardous vascular embolism , which belongs to arterial thrombosis. Once the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system is blocked, it is very easy to cause coronary heart disease; cerebral embolism that occurs in cerebral vascular system is also an embolism caused by cardiovascular blood vessels. It can be disable at mildly, and in severe cases it is more likely to threaten life. After cerebral infarction, anticoagulation treatment must be carried out according to the doctor's advice; pulmonary embolism is usually caused by venous thrombosis, and deep venous thrombosis in the lower limbs may cause pulmonary embolism.
introduces the easy-to-tabolism part. The following 8 people are easy-to-tabolism people , especially prevention is needed. Once suspected symptoms appear, it is best to seek medical treatment in time:
·Patients diagnosed with coronary heart disease, carotid artery stenosis , and atrial fibrillation;
·Patients with underlying diseases such as "three highs";
·The elderly, pregnant women and obese people;
·Long-term smokers ;
·Popular people living on the plateau;
·Popular people who lack exercise, sit for a long time, or need to take transportation for a long time (such as taxis, construction site tower crane practitioners);
·Popular people with a specific family history (such as certain hereditary blood diseases, etc.);
·Popular people who are bedridden due to illness, injury, and use specific drugs or treatment methods.
When discussing high-risk groups of people with thrombosis, people living on the plateau often ignore the population. Our country has a vast high-altitude area, where many ethnic minorities live.The plateau has special environmental factors such as low air pressure, low oxygen content, and extremely cold , which will cause certain physiological changes in the human body, among which thrombosis is the most common influencing factor.
A large number of studies have found that the plateau environment increases the risk of deep vein thrombosis in , and the incidence among hospitalized patients is 30 to 40 times that in low-altitude areas.
So for people who are prone to "tuning", how to reduce the incidence of thrombosis?
4. How to prevent the formation of thrombosis?
prevents thrombosis, first should pay attention to diet. In life, remember not to eat too salty . Eating too salty will cause increased blood vessel pressure, making the blood vessel walls brittle and damaged; do not eat . If you eat too much high-fat food, once it is deposited in the blood vessels, it may increase the level of triglyceride , induce atherosclerosis , etc.; drink less , and excessive alcohol intake will cause platelets to accumulate, affect blood flow rate, and then increase the incidence of cerebral infarction.
In addition, can prevent the formation of thrombus by drinking more water . It is recommended that the amount of water to 1200 ml per day is recommended, which is conducive to reducing blood viscosity and promoting blood circulation. Especially drinking a cup of boiling water before going to bed, which is very helpful in preventing blood clots. kelp, cabbage , onion, leek, black fungus, deep-sea fish oil, lettuce and other in daily diet, as well as drinking light tea and vinegar, can all help prevent blood clots.
In addition to dietary prevention, in terms of drug prevention of thrombosis, you can consult a doctor and take aspirin in small amounts to to acetylate platelet oxidase, causing it to lose its activity to prevent the formation of thrombosis. However, be careful to use large doses with caution, otherwise it will cause accelerated blood coagulation and form thrombosis. Therefore, needs to strictly control in the dosage.
In lifestyle, there are also some effective ways to avoid the formation of thrombosis:
. Actively treat underlying diseases. Although many people will experience diabetes, hypertension, vasculitis, , various heart diseases, etc., but chronic diseases that occur with aging are generally controllable and relieving.. Reduce the viscosity of the blood. One of the major reasons for thrombosis is that the blood viscosity is high. When the viscosity increases, the blood flow rate will decrease. At this time, substances such as platelets in the blood will deposit and accumulate, and slowly a "small emboli" will appear. It will then continue to collect and expand, and when its volume cannot pass through the narrower blood vessels, it will cause blockage.For example, control diet and mood from to regulate , and combined with drugs to treat can generally achieve good results. If these underlying diseases can be controlled, the probability of thrombosis will be greatly reduced;
Therefore, it is particularly important to reduce blood viscosity . Specifically, it can be achieved through several aspects such as reducing blood lipids and , blood sugar and controlling platelet aggregation. In addition to controlling it in life and diet, if the situation is serious, you can consult a doctor and take drugs such as aspirin or clopidogrel for drug treatment.
3. Don’t sit for a long time. Because when you sit for a long time, the blood circulation of the lower limbs will become worse. The blood flow rate will decrease , which will increase the blood viscosity and slowly lead to venous thrombosis of the lower limbs, which may cause cerebral embolism or pulmonary embolism, which is very dangerous.
Therefore, it is recommended that office staff and those who are older, especially those who love to play chess for a long time, should avoid sitting for a long time. It is best to stand up and walk to promote blood circulation.
4. Summary
With the convenience of modern life, it also brings a fast-paced lifestyle. The increase in external food, an uncontrollable high-oil, high-sugar, and high-salty diet, coupled with the lack of exercise, a small blood clot that is not valued will eventually cause huge harm.
If you find any abnormalities in your body, remember to seek medical treatment in time. It is necessary to remember that rescues the harm of thrombosis, which is a matter of every second.However, as long as improves lifestyles, controls diet, regular work and rest, and pays attention to your own physical changes at any time, it is not difficult for to stay away from the harm of thrombosis.
