After the first frost, the temperature difference is large, the vasoconstriction becomes larger, and there are many elderly people around. How to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases?

10 year1On October 23rd, we will welcome the last solar term in autumn: the first frost. Although the autumn in some areas of Lingnan is not very strong, the arrival of the first frost indicates that it is already late autumn. In the first frost season, the power of cold wave gradually increases and the temperature drops further, so this period is also a period of high incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, especially for the elderly, the weak and the low resistance, and more attention should be paid to similar diseases. Let's take a look at some points that need attention in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Why are cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases prone to occur in the first frost season?

Entering the first frost season, the temperature in most parts of the country dropped significantly. Cold stimulation at low temperature will excite the sympathetic nerves of patients, and at the same time, the capillaries will contract, so the blood pressure will increase, thus inducing various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Especially for patients with hypertension, if they don't pay attention to health care, if the blood vessels suddenly rise, it may lead to fragile cerebral vascular rupture, so the increase of blood viscosity due to cold will lead to cerebral hemorrhage or cerebral thrombosis, which will seriously lead to stroke. This is a disease with high incidence, high recurrence rate, high disability rate and high mortality rate. Middle-aged and elderly people should not take it lightly.

At the same time, the temperature drop in late autumn can also induce lower limb vascular diseases in middle-aged and elderly people, which are manifested as leg pain, swelling and numbness of one limb. If you find it, you should seek medical advice in time.

How does the first cream prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases? The expert gives you a suggestion.

In order to prevent the most terrible cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases: stroke, Professor Pan Xiaoping, chief physician of the Department of Neurology, Guangzhou First People's Hospital, said in an interview that middle-aged and elderly people should especially do these two things:

"First of all, high-risk groups should control risk factors and reduce blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipids through drugs and life conditioning. People who take medicine should pay special attention to the time and dosage of taking medicine, and avoid stopping while eating. We should also form the habit of measuring blood pressure. If your blood pressure fluctuates and is abnormal, you should contact your doctor in time. In addition, middle-aged and elderly people should adjust their lifestyles, quit smoking and limit alcohol, exercise actively, eat reasonably, and control their weight, especially those over 50 years old with a family history of cardiovascular disease. "

In addition, the first cream can also follow the following health care points in preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases:

1. Change clothes appropriately: In late autumn, the temperature may suddenly drop, and the temperature difference between day and night will be very obvious. Middle-aged and elderly people should not unilaterally pursue "autumn and winter", and increase or decrease clothes in time to prevent cold air from stimulating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

2, soaking feet before going to bed: soaking feet with hot water before going to bed can not only warm the body, but also dilate blood vessels and improve the skin and tissue nutrition of the feet. Soaking feet with hot water before going to bed can eliminate daytime fatigue and improve sleep quality.

3, may wish to practice Ba Duan Jin: the first frost season also needs proper exercise. Baduanjin is a good way for middle-aged and elderly people to exercise. It can exercise spine and joints, regulate internal organs, make blood smooth, increase high density lipoprotein, and rejuvenate blood vessels, which is very helpful for preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
