Repeated reminder: high blood pressure does not want cerebral hemorrhage, 4 kinds of food are best not to touch, no matter how greedy you have to hold back

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

One night, Mr. Liu was working overtime in the company, and he suddenly felt a headache and dizziness. Later, there were symptoms such as slurred speech, crooked eyes and mouth , and colleagues quickly called the emergency call.

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

Fortunately, the rescue was timely. After timely thrombolytic treatment, Mr. Liu's condition was effectively controlled, and he is currently on vacation for aggravating recuperation.

For many patients with high blood pressure, the most worrying situation when they have high blood pressure is the occurrence of "burst blood vessels", that is, cerebral hemorrhage. In general, how high is blood pressure likely to cause cerebral hemorrhage?

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

Intracerebral hemorrhage is generally high in people aged 45-60 years old, and with the increase of age, the incidence rate shows an increasing trend, and many young people are targeted by intracerebral hemorrhage, and the mortality rate of acute intracerebral hemorrhage can reach 30%-40%.

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

Intracerebral 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 in high blood pressure. Hypertension is arguably the most common cause of cerebral hemorrhage, and more than half of cerebral hemorrhages are caused by high blood pressure .

The cerebrovascular walls of the human body are very thin, and the cerebrovascular walls of patients with hypertension are even thinner . Once the blood pressure suddenly rises, it will lead to the rupture of small cerebral arteries, which will induce cerebral hemorrhage.

In addition, forced defecation, cold weather, excessive emotion, breath-holding movements, etc., may also lead to hardening and rupture of blood vessels and induce cerebral hemorrhage.

Therefore, it is very important to prevent cerebral hemorrhage and control blood pressure. When the blood pressure is high, can cerebral hemorrhage 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 physique, blood pressure, and vascular conditions are different. However, in general, the blood pressure is higher than 180/100mmHg for a long time, which is more likely to induce cerebral hemorrhage . It is recommended that patients with hypertension 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, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, pointed out that intracerebral hemorrhage occurs rapidly and progresses rapidly.

Before the onset of cerebral hemorrhage, in fact, there will be many "calls for help". If you can catch these clues as soon as possible, and intervene as soon as possible, the disease can be effectively controlled.

1. Severe headache

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

2. One side limb numbness

Before the onset of cerebral hemorrhage, it may manifest as numbness in the arms, face, and fingers. If it is accompanied by lower extremity weakness, you must seek medical attention as soon as possible.

3. Darkness

Sudden blurred vision, dark eyes, and double images may be a precursor to cerebral hemorrhage.

4. The base of the tongue is hard, and there is a choking cough

A stiff tongue, slurred speech, difficulty swallowing, or choking when drinking water may also be a sign of a brain hemorrhage.

Once you find that your loved ones or yourself have the above symptoms, you must first aid as soon as possible. First, dial 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 the changes of 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 to have cerebral hemorrhage, 3 kinds of food should be removed from the table as soon as possible

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

1. High-salt foods such as pickles

Frequent eating of high-salt foods such as pickled vegetables in the diet will lead to the retention of water and sodium in the body, causing an increase in blood pressure, which is not conducive to the stability of the condition of hypertensive patients. It is recommended that healthy adults consume no more than 5 grams of salt per day.

2. Milk tea, juice and other beverages

In many beverages such as milk tea and fruit juice, 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 damage to blood vessels.

3. High-fat foods such as animal offal

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

Fourth, to prevent cerebral hemorrhage, we 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 preventing it from life.

The first is to regularly monitor and control blood pressure. It is recommended to control blood pressure below 140/90mmHg . Hypertensive patients 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 vegetables, fruits, fish , and eating less high-fat food such as animal offal, and avoid vigorous defecation and develop regular defecation habits.

In winter, people with high blood pressure also need to keep warm. Because cold winter is the season of high incidence of cerebral hemorrhage, it is recommended to keep warm in winter to avoid vasoconstriction caused by low temperature and cerebral hemorrhage accident.

Usually, it is necessary to develop regular work and rest habits, try to combine work and rest, and ensure 7-8 hours of adequate sleep every day.

In addition, it is necessary to ensure proper exercise. It is best to develop the habit of regular exercise, which not only helps to control weight, but also improves vascular function.

Hypertension patients must control their blood pressure, after all, hypertension is a high risk factor for cerebral hemorrhage. Usually, we must develop healthy eating habits, eat less high-fat food, high-salt food, drink less sugar-sweetened beverages, do a good job in the prevention of cerebral hemorrhage, and pay attention to keeping warm in winter.
