Early symptoms of heart disease

No matter what type of heart disease it is, whether mild or severe, it brings endless pain and trouble to the patient, and some even directly threaten the patient's life. The heart is the most important organ in the human body, and the harm caused by any abnormality is incalculable. Therefore, it is necessary to take preventive measures in advance to nip it in the bud, understand the early symptoms of heart disease, be familiar with the physical signs caused by it, and eliminate hidden dangers in time when abnormalities are discovered.

The early symptoms of heart disease can be seen in many parts of the body. Any unprovoked discomfort may be a sign of underlying disease. What we need to do is to understand the manifestations of heart disease and do our best before the worst happens. Let’s take a look at the early symptoms of heart disease.

1. Breathing: Shortness of breath occurs when doing some light activities or being in a quiet state, but is not accompanied by coughing or sputum. This situation is likely a manifestation of left ventricular dysfunction.

2. Complexion: If the complexion is grayish or purple and the expression is dull, this is the critical appearance of a person in the late stage of heart disease. If your face is dark red, it is a characteristic of rheumatic heart disease and mitral valve stenosis. If it is pale, it may be a sign of mitral regurgitation.

3. Nose: If the nose is hard, it indicates that too much fat has accumulated in the heart. If the tip of your nose is swollen, it could mean that fat in your heart is also swelling or that your heart disease is expanding. In addition, a red nose often indicates heart disease.

4. Skin: The skin of patients with chronic heart failure and advanced cor pulmonale may be dark brown or dark purple, which is related to long-term hypoxia of body tissues and decreased adrenal cortex function. The skin, mucous membranes and extremities appear bluish purple, indicating that the heart is lacking oxygen and there is an increase in reduced blood protein in the blood.

5. Ears: Heart patients all experience varying degrees of tinnitus in the early stages of the disease. This is because the dynamics of the inner ear's micro-blood vessels are abnormal. The inner ear receives precursor signals before the disease causes a systemic reaction. If your earlobe has a continuous wrinkle, it is most likely caused by coronary artery sclerosis.

Depending on the different causes, the types of heart disease are complex and varied, and the early symptoms of heart disease are often more complicated. The above mentioned are just some of the more representative symptoms. The best way to solve the disease is prevention. Check your body regularly to ensure that there are no potential diseases or eliminate these hidden dangers in time. This is the best guarantee for a healthy body.
