Remind again: high blood pressure does not want cerebral hemorrhage, it is best not to touch the 4 kinds of food, and hold back no matter how greedy you are

Mr. Liu is 38 years old this year, and he is usually busy with work. A few years ago, he was found to have high blood pressure during a physical examination organized by his work unit. Although the doctor told him to take antihypertensive drugs on time, he was worried about drug dependence and usually took antihypertensive drugs when he was dizzy.

One night, Mr. Liu was working overtime in the company, and he suddenly felt headache and dizziness, and he didn't get better after resting for a while. After that, symptoms such as slurred speech and crooked eyes and mouth appeared, and my colleagues hurriedly called for emergency services.

After the doctor performed a brain CT examination, he found that Mr. Liu had a typical hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage, which was related to Mr. Liu's work fatigue and not taking antihypertensive drugs on time .

Fortunately, he was rescued in time. After timely thrombolytic therapy, Mr. Liu's condition has been effectively controlled, and he is currently on vacation and recuperating intensively.

For many hypertensive patients, the most worrying situation of hypertensive patients is the occurrence of "burst blood vessels", that is, cerebral hemorrhage. Generally speaking, how high is blood pressure likely to cause cerebral hemorrhage?

1. When the blood pressure is high, cerebral hemorrhage will occur?

Cerebral hemorrhage is generally a high incidence among people aged 45-60 years old, and with the increase of age, the incidence rate shows a trend of continuous increase. Many young people are targeted by cerebral hemorrhage, and the fatality rate of cerebral hemorrhage in the acute stage can reach 30%-40%.

According to statistics, from 1980 to 2009, the incidence of cerebral hemorrhage among people under the age of 45 rose from 3.7% to 38.5% .

Cerebral hemorrhage is generally caused by the rupture of blood vessels in the non-traumatic brain parenchyma, most of which are caused by the rupture of arteriosclerotic blood vessels due to hypertension. High blood pressure can be said to be the most common cause of cerebral hemorrhage, and more than half of cerebral hemorrhage is caused by high blood pressure .

The cerebrovascular wall of the human body is very thin, and the cerebrovascular wall of hypertensive patients is even thinner . Once the blood pressure suddenly rises, it will cause the small cerebral arteries to rupture, thereby inducing cerebral hemorrhage.

In addition, straining to defecate, cold weather, over-excited emotions, and breath-holding actions may also cause hardening and rupture of blood vessels and induce cerebral hemorrhage.

Therefore, to prevent cerebral hemorrhage, it is very important to control blood pressure. When the blood pressure is high, cerebral hemorrhage may occur?

In this regard, the official account of the Department of Functional Neurology of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Pharmaceutical University stated that there is no standard answer to this question, because each person's constitution, blood pressure, and vascular conditions are different. However, the general blood pressure is higher than 180/100mmHg for a long time, which is more likely to induce cerebral hemorrhage . It is recommended that hypertensive patients should control their blood pressure within this range.

2. The onset of cerebral hemorrhage is rapid, how to "catch" the onset signal as soon as possible?

Feng Jie, an attending physician at the Department of Neurology at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, pointed out that cerebral hemorrhage occurs very quickly and progresses rapidly.

Before the onset of cerebral hemorrhage, it will actually send out "distress signals" many times. If these clues can be caught as soon as possible and intervened as soon as possible, the disease can be effectively controlled.

1. Severe headache

Unexplained severe headache, and persistent headache symptoms, be alert to the coming of cerebral hemorrhage.

2. Numbness on one side of the limb

Before the onset of cerebral hemorrhage, there may be numbness in the arms, face, and fingers. If it is accompanied by weakness in the lower limbs, you must see a doctor as soon as possible.

3. Dark eyes

Sudden blurred vision, black eyes, and double images may be the precursor of cerebral hemorrhage.

4. The base of the tongue is stiff and coughing occurs

Stiffness at the base of the tongue, slurred words, difficulty swallowing, or choking when drinking water may also be a precursor to cerebral hemorrhage.

Once you find that your relatives or yourself have the above symptoms, you must give first aid as soon as possible. First of all, call 120 in time, and then put the patient in a flat position to ensure smooth breathing. It is recommended not to move the patient at will.

At the same time, it is necessary to stabilize the patient's mood, avoid indiscriminate use of drugs, observe changes in the patient's vital signs at any time, and wait for the arrival of emergency personnel.

3. If you have high blood pressure and don’t want cerebral hemorrhage, 3 kinds of food should be removed from the table as soon as possible

Diet has a great impact on blood pressure, especially these kinds of foods that many people love to eat. It is better to eat less for health.

1. Pickled vegetables and other high-salt foods

Frequent consumption of high-salt foods such as pickled vegetables in the diet will lead to water and sodium retention in the body, causing increased blood pressure, which is not conducive to the stability of hypertensive patients. It is recommended that healthy adults have a daily salt intake of no more than 5 grams.

2. Milk tea, fruit juice and other beverages

In many milk teas, fruit juices and other beverages, the added brown sugar, white sugar, fructose syrup, etc. are all free sugars. Excessive intake of these sugars will cause damage to vascular endothelial cells and cause blood vessels to be destroyed.

3. High-fat foods such as animal offal

Excessive intake of high-fat foods such as animal offal may induce hyperlipoproteinemia and may increase the risk of atherosclerosis. It is recommended to eat less.

4. To prevent cerebral hemorrhage, you must develop 5 habits

Although high blood pressure is a high-risk factor for cerebral hemorrhage, preventing cerebral hemorrhage requires not only controlling blood pressure, but also taking precautions from life.

The first is to monitor and control blood pressure regularly. It is recommended to keep blood pressure below 140/90mmHg . Patients with high blood pressure should pay attention to blood pressure monitoring, take medicine on time, and avoid taking medicine at will, so as to avoid unsatisfactory blood pressure control and induce cerebral hemorrhage.

At the same time, pay attention to eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, fish , and less high-fat foods such as animal offal, and avoid straining to defecate, and develop regular bowel habits.

In winter, hypertensive patients need to keep warm. Because the cold winter is the season with a high incidence of cerebral hemorrhage, it is recommended to keep warm in winter to prevent blood vessels from constricting due to low temperature and accidents of cerebral hemorrhage.

Usually, we should develop regular work and rest habits, try our best to combine work and rest, and ensure 7-8 hours of sufficient sleep every day.

In addition, it is necessary to ensure proper exercise, and it is best to develop the habit of regular exercise, which will not only help control weight, but also improve blood vessel function.

Patients with high blood pressure must control their blood pressure. After all, high blood pressure is a high-risk factor for cerebral hemorrhage. Usually, you must develop healthy eating habits, eat less high-fat food, high-salt food, drink less sugary drinks, do a good job of preventing cerebral hemorrhage, and pay attention to keeping warm in winter.
