What are the symptoms of heart disease

We have all heard of heart disease, but when it really strikes, people don’t know that most people with heart disease have early symptoms. The most common one is tinnitus. They often can’t hear clearly, and may even have a little hardening. They also feel more sensitive to varying degrees, and may even have insufficient cardiovascular power. They may also often feel shoulder pain and chest tightness. These are all different symptoms.

Symptoms and signs

Symptom 1: Tinnitus

Researchers have found that heart patients, especially those with hypertensive heart disease, coronary heart disease, and arteriosclerosis, can experience tinnitus to varying degrees. This is because the micro-blood vessels in the inner ear are more sensitive to changes, and when abnormalities in cardiovascular dynamics have not yet caused a systemic reaction, precursor information can be received in the ear. Therefore, if middle-aged people over 45 years old experience tinnitus frequently within a week, they should go to the hospital for examination in time.

Symptom 2: Snoring

Fat people snore a lot. Naturally, there are many people among them who suffer from high blood pressure, high blood lipids, and heart disease. The number of people who snore for a long time and suffer from heart disease and stroke is far greater than that of the other two categories, and the proportion is high. Professor Kum Koskenf, an expert who conducted this research, believes that snoring during sleep is a sign that the heart is still working. It is an alarm signal for heart disease and should be used as one of the bases for diagnosing heart disease. Therefore, if a person continues to snore for a long time, he should pay attention to cardiovascular diseases.

Symptom 3: Shoulder pain

Shoulder pain, which in severe cases makes it difficult to even put on clothes, is mostly caused by periarthritis of the shoulder in middle-aged or elderly people. However, many heart patients also often experience shoulder pain, especially pain in the left shoulder and left arm, which is paroxysmal and has nothing to do with the climate. According to relevant data, about 65% of patients with coronary heart disease suffer from shoulder pain, which is related to blood flow dynamics and nerve direction. Therefore, if middle-aged and elderly people suffer from shoulder pain, especially severe left shoulder pain, they should not simply put on a piece of rheumatism plaster and call it a day. They should always pay attention to their heart condition.

Symptom 4: Chest pain

The chest pain experienced by heart disease patients usually occurs after labor or exercise, often occurs behind the sternum, and often radiates to the left shoulder and left arm. The pain is accompanied by a feeling of chest tightening that lasts for 2-3 minutes and can usually be stopped by cessation of activity or sublingual nitroglycerin. Some patients with cardiac neurosis also have chest pain, which is mostly located in the left anterior chest breast or under the breast. The location may change frequently. The stabbing pain is relatively short-lived, and the dull pain may last for hours or days and is unrelated to activity. There are often tender points in the precordial area. Must be distinguished from heart patients.

Symptom 5: Difficulty breathing

Chest tightness and dyspnea in heart patients are often related to pulmonary congestion, so they often occur at night and when lying down, and are relieved when sitting, and are paroxysmal. Activities and going upstairs can also occur.

Symptom 6: Edema

Excessive heart load leads to obstruction of venous return, congestion and edema of distal blood vessels, which is also a common symptom in heart patients. Except for heart failure, mild edema is often a precursor symptom. Any middle-aged person who suffers from edema should seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Treatment

Drug treatment

This is the basis. Many diseases can be treated with good medicine to achieve good results.

Interventional treatment

The most common treatment is stent placement for coronary heart disease, and interventional treatment can also be used for congenital heart disease.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment

The corresponding treatments include tonifying Qi, warming Yang, nourishing Yin, and nourishing blood; the specific evidences include Qi stagnation, blood stasis, phlegm turbidity, cold stagnation, etc., and the corresponding treatments include regulating Qi, activating blood circulation, resolving phlegm, and dispersing cold, etc. In short, different medicines are used to treat different diseases.
