I always want to lie down and don't want to move

Always wanting to lie down, feeling tired and unwilling to move is a problem that many people have encountered. If this phenomenon is caused by overwork, generally speaking, sufficient rest can effectively relieve the symptoms. However, some diseases can also cause these symptoms and require patients to receive timely treatment. Specific diseases that can cause this symptom include: anemia, abnormal thyroid function, liver and kidney dysfunction, etc.

1. Anemia

Anemia has different classifications based on different clinical characteristics. For example: according to the speed of anemia progression, it can be divided into acute and chronic anemia; according to the morphology of red blood cells, it can be divided into macrocytic anemia, normocytic anemia and microcytic hypochromic anemia; according to the hemoglobin concentration, it can be divided into mild, moderate, severe and very severe anemia; according to the proliferation of the erythroid cells in the bone marrow, it can be divided into proliferative anemia (such as hemolytic anemia, iron deficiency anemia, megaloblastic anemia, etc.) and hypoproliferative anemia (such as aplastic anemia).

2. Abnormal thyroid function

If the thyroid gland is not functioning well, it produces too little thyroid hormone, which can lead to "hypothyroidism." People with hypothyroidism have slower energy consumption and a slower metabolism. On the contrary, if the thyroid gland is overactive, it will release too much thyroid hormone into the blood, causing "hyperthyroidism" and accelerating the body's metabolic process.

There are many causes of hypothyroidism, one of the most common is iodine deficiency. The thyroid gland needs iodine to produce thyroid hormones. Too little iodine in the diet can cause the thyroid gland to not work properly. Foods rich in iodine include salmon, sea fish, lamb, tuna and eggs!

3. Liver and kidney dysfunction

The liver is the organ that metabolizes and transforms most drugs, and the kidneys are the organ that excretes most drugs. Patients with impaired liver and kidney function should avoid taking toxic drugs that are harmful to the liver and kidneys to avoid damaging the liver and kidneys. At the same time, they should also be careful when using drugs that are metabolized by the liver and excreted by the kidneys to avoid drug accumulation and poisoning due to reduced liver metabolism or kidney excretion rates. Quinidine, procainamide, phenytoin sodium, carbamazepine, lidocaine, verapamil, nifedipine, warfarin and other drugs should be used with caution in patients with liver dysfunction.
