A 52-year-old man died of a sudden cerebral infarction. Reminder: middle-aged and elderly people should do 3 less things after dinner

The 52-year-old brother Liu, as usual, lay on the sofa and played with his mobile phone after eating takeaway.

Later, the roommate forgot to take the clothes in the bathroom, so he shouted to Brother Liu for help. As a result, as soon as he stood up, Brother Liu felt that his eyes were darkened , and his body seemed to fall to the ground uncontrollably.

After being sent to the hospital, after rescue, Brother Liu left because of a sudden cerebral infarction.

1. Will playing mobile phones for a long time induce cerebral infarction?

Does playing mobile phone really cause cerebral infarction?

Cerebral infarction, also known as ischemic stroke, refers to the blockage of cerebral blood vessels caused by disease, resulting in obstruction of blood supply to the brain, and ultimately leading to ischemia and hypoxic necrosis of local brain tissue, resulting in a type of neurological deficit. clinical syndrome.

Staying in one position for a long time to play with a mobile phone, a seemingly random action, will cause slow blood flow and cervical spondylosis .

The vertebral artery, which replenishes blood behind the brain, runs in the intervertebral foramen of the cervical spine. When there is a problem in the neck, it cannot supply blood in time, and there are problems such as blood pressure and blood lipids. In severe cases, it is likely to induce cerebral infarction.

2. Do these two things often after meals, or the "culprit" of cerebral infarction

Many inadvertent little details in life actually lay the groundwork for cerebral infarction.

1. Take a shower after eating

After a full meal, the blood itself will be concentrated in the stomach, which will then affect the blood supply of other organs. At this time, when taking a bath, due to the influence of the water temperature, the blood flow rate will increase rapidly, and the blood vessels will contract abnormally at this time, coupled with the effect of high pressure, It will impact the plaque or thrombus in the blood vessel, causing cerebral infarction.

2. Lie down after meals

Sitting down or lying down immediately after a full meal will slow down digestion, and excess energy cannot be consumed and utilized, which in turn increases blood lipids and affects cardiovascular health.

There will be obvious symptoms of cerebral infarction, especially the following symptoms. You must be vigilant. If you suspect the possibility of a stroke at the first time, you should call the 120 emergency number in time.

Visual impairment

It belongs to the early signal of cerebral infarction. The patient will feel the visual field defect and see things blurry, but it will recover on its own in a short time.

hard tongue

The tongue is stiff due to abnormal facial muscles, making it difficult to express a complete sentence.

dizziness

Cerebrovascular sclerosis leads to insufficient blood oxygen in the vertebrobasilar artery, which affects the balance of the cerebellum and brain stem, causing dizziness.

lethargy

The lack of blood oxygen in the brain and the performance of central nervous system hypoxia, the patient will always feel sleepy.

3. To prevent cerebral infarction, eat less of 3 kinds of food on the table

1. High fat

High-fat foods such as offal, fatty meat, and red meat are not good for blood lipid control. Higher fat may aggravate atherosclerosis.

2. Alcohol

Alcohol not only damages the liver and stomach, but also damages the blood vessels. Long-term alcoholism can lead to increased blood pressure, resulting in coagulation disorders, which can lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

3. High Purine

High purine is the fourth highest after the three highs. Studies have shown that a high purine diet will also increase the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, so eat less food such as hot pot, lobster, beverages, and animal offal.

Even completely healthy people will develop arterial stenosis with age, so regular physical examination is very important. To prevent cerebral infarction, high-risk groups should regularly check carotid artery color Doppler ultrasound, control the "four highs", and inhibit the occurrence of cerebral infarction. arrival.
