Symptoms and dangers of angina pectoris

Most people think that heart pain and angina pectoris are within the same disease range. In fact, angina pectoris is just a small branch of heart pain. Moreover, there is a big difference between angina pectoris and heart pain, because angina pectoris not only refers to pain in the heart itself, it also causes pain in other areas around the heart. The causes of angina pectoris are also very complicated. Next, I will introduce to you the symptoms and dangers of angina pectoris.

Angina pectoris is very harmful and very common. Many people will encounter this disease, which endangers the patient's health. The nursing work of angina pectoris is very important. The following will introduce to you "the early dangers of angina pectoris and what are the signs of angina pectoris".

What are the early dangers of angina pectoris?

1. Myocardial ischemia: It is caused by the contradiction between the main cause of myocardial ischemia and myocardial blood supply. Chronic blood supply insufficiency is mainly due to severe stenosis or occlusion, which is a risk of coronary heart disease.

2. The hazards of angina pectoris and coronary heart disease are the clinical manifestations of angina pectoris caused by sudden severe stenosis or occlusion of the lumen due to acute blood supply deficiency, vascular spasm or plaque rupture, leading to intraluminal thrombosis.

3. Myocardial infarction: If the myocardial ischemia time is short (mostly more than 30 minutes) and cannot be relieved, it will lead to myocardial necrosis in the corresponding distal coronary artery perfusion area, and the clinical manifestation is acute myocardial infarction.

4. Arrhythmia: Myocardial ischemia leads to various arrhythmias, cardiac enlargement and heart failure. The most serious arrhythmia is ventricular fibrillation, a clinical manifestation of sudden death, which is a risk of coronary heart disease.

Angina can be triggered by emotions or fatigue.

2. Angina pectoris often starts slowly, starting with a lighter and reaching climax in a few minutes.

3. Pain in the lower 1/3 of the lower chest, that is, the midline between the chest and the right side and the left nipple.

4. The range of pain is often a symptom of angina pectoris. Patients usually place a clenched fist in the middle or slightly left side of the chest to indicate the range of pain.

5. The pain is often not limited to the chest, but often radiates to the front of the neck and throat, feeling like someone is strangling the neck. The pain also radiates to the left upper arm, back, left shoulder, three fingers on the left hand side and down the leg.

6. Angina pectoris lasts for 3-4 minutes, and up to 15 minutes.

7. Angina pectoris caused by physical activity will disappear after stopping the activity after a few seconds.

8. The symptoms of angina attacks should not lie. When lying down, the blood flow to the lower limbs increases, the heart load increases, and the angina pectoris worsens. The patient should rest in a semi-recumbent position.

9. Angina pectoris can often occur after meals, and often occurs within 30 minutes after eating.

The above is to introduce to you "The early dangers of angina pectoris and what are the signs of angina pectoris". I hope that all patients and friends will adopt it.
