The advent of cerebral infarction is not 'quiet', reminder: 4 abnormalities in sleep, or precursors of cerebral infarction

The 23-year-old Mr. Wang is an Internet worker. After staying up all night, he finally had a chance to rest. When he was taking a shower that night, he suddenly collapsed to the ground. Follow the call.

Seeing this, a friend who lived with him was rushed to the hospital emergency room and was diagnosed with acute cerebral infarction.

According to Mr. Wang's description, in fact, as early as two months ago, he suffered from repeated dizziness and suddenly darkened eyes, but because he was busy with work, he didn't pay much attention to it.

Unlike most patients, Mr. Wang does not drink or smoke, nor is he obese. Why does a cerebral infarction target him?

The doctor said that although Mr. Wang has no underlying disease, he needs to sit in front of the computer for a long time due to work, lack of exercise, and stays up late for a long time. This highly stressful work state causes his blood vessels to contract and his blood pressure to rise, especially when the season changes. Temperature changes can also stimulate the hypercoagulable blood system and induce thrombosis, which is the result of acute cerebral infarction.

1. Cerebral infarction is high in autumn and winter

The World Stroke Organization summarizes relevant data on stroke (stroke), pointing out that there are 13.7 million new cases of cerebral infarction every year, and worldwide, 90 million people have been diagnosed with cerebral infarction, and about 5.5 million cases per year People died of cerebral infarction.

Cerebral infarction often occurs in autumn and winter, because the temperature changes in autumn and winter will be relatively large, and the cooling will be faster, especially in the alternating stages of autumn and winter, it is more likely to cause blood pressure problems, and blood pressure fluctuations are large, which will also affect blood vessels. Influence and induce cerebral infarction.

Therefore, friends, you must pay attention to the abnormality of the body and take precautions.

2. How did the cerebral infarction come to the door quietly?

What is the root cause of cerebral infarction? The answer is abnormal coagulation.

Normal blood clotting prevents excessive blood loss during injury and ensures that blood can flow slowly through blood vessels without clotting. Abnormal coagulation function can be manifested as too weak coagulation function, such as small bleeding spots in the brain, or cerebral hemorrhage due to inability to actively stop bleeding. It can also show that the coagulation function is too strong. At this time, when the blood flows in the body, it is easy to automatically coagulate and form a thrombus. This thrombus occurs in the cerebral blood vessels, which will lead to the occurrence of cerebral infarction.

In recent years, the incidence of cerebral infarction is not only increasing, but also showing a trend of younger people. In the final analysis, it has a lot to do with young people’s life and work pressure, irregular diet, lack of exercise, etc. These bad habits will Disturbing the metabolic disorder in the internal environment leads to the occurrence of three high risk factors, and cerebral infarction naturally "quietly" comes.

It should also be pointed out here that the diet structure of modern people is really unhealthy! Especially these three types of food, it is recommended to eat less!

• high sugar foods

High-sugar foods such as milk tea and cakes are the favorites of many people, but eating too much of these foods and consuming too much sugar can easily lead to insulin resistance and chronic inflammation, induce arteriosclerosis, and increase the risk of cerebral infarction.

• high salt foods

Eating too salty and heavy flavors can easily increase the level of sodium ions in the blood, reduce the elasticity of blood vessels, and increase the risk of arterial atherosclerosis.

• high fat foods

Young people's long-term intake of fatty foods such as fatty meat and animal liver will not only increase obesity, but also easily aggravate the formation of atherosclerosis. In the long run, it may induce the dangerous disease of cerebral infarction.

3. These 4 signs appear during sleep, which may be a precursor to cerebral infarction

Did the cerebral infarction happen suddenly? Maybe not, some signs in the body in life may be the signal of cerebral infarction!

When do strokes most often occur? The answer is when resting or sleeping. At this time, blood pressure is too low, blood flow is slow, viscosity increases, etc., which may lead to thrombosis and cause sudden onset of cerebral infarction. Signal:

1. Numbness on one side of the body

During exercise, numbness of the limbs may suddenly occur when resting, and when the cerebral infarction area is small until part of the brain function is damaged, the patient will show numbness on one side of the body. As the cerebral infarction area continues to expand, the body will temporarily numb The pain will also progress to persistent numbness. The body numbness caused by cerebral infarction has nothing to do with changing body position, because lumbar and cervical spine diseases may also cause body numbness due to compression of nerves.

2. Gaze paralysis

The human brain center can only rotate the eyeball to the opposite side at the same time, and once a cerebral infarction occurs, the gaze center of one side of the brain will be damaged, and the patient's eyes may only be able to rotate to one side but not the other side. This is called Gaze paralysis symptoms.

3. Frequent yawning

We will keep yawning until the brain is deprived of oxygen. If factors such as lack of sleep and poor air circulation are excluded, we should be alert to the signal of cerebral infarction, because cerebral infarction causes cerebral blood flow to slow down and insufficient blood supply, resulting in hypoxia symptoms. Makes people yawn frequently.

4. Persistent headache

When a person falls asleep, the activities of the brain and limbs will also decrease. At this time, the blood flow slows down and the blood viscosity increases, and the blood vessels are more likely to form blood clots. If the blood vessels in the brain form blood clots, it will cause persistent headaches.

4. The 3 most "deadly" behaviors in winter

The weather in winter is relatively cold and the temperature changes greatly, which will also cause large fluctuations in blood pressure, especially for the elderly, where a slight accidental danger may strike.

1. Forced defecation

Forced defecation will make the muscles of the whole body tense and vasoconstriction, blood pressure will also rise sharply, and the pressure in the thoracic cavity and abdominal cavity will also increase during forced defecation, and the pressure on the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vessels will also increase, and the sudden increase in intracranial pressure can lead to cerebral blood vessels rupture. , Cardiovascular accidents such as cerebral infarction are also very prone to occur.

2. One sitting is one day

It is cold in winter, so many people are reluctant to move more, even sitting for a whole day. However, this sedentary behavior will block the blood circulation of the lower extremities, especially in the elderly, the lower extremity muscle tension is reduced, and it is more likely to have lower extremities due to prolonged sitting. The problem of venous thrombosis, the blood clot flowing to the brain can lead to a cerebral infarction.

3. Go to morning exercise before dawn

The elderly get up early and often go to exercise before dawn. The starting point is good, but doing so is not good for the health. First of all, there is carbon dioxide in the air before dawn, and secondly, the temperature difference is large, which affects blood pressure. Both points increase the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents. It is recommended that the elderly can exercise at 9:00 after breakfast.

Cerebral infarction can occur in both young and old. Once again, I would like to remind everyone to develop healthy living habits. If there is numbness and weakness on one side of the limb, skewed eyes and eyes, and vision loss, go to the hospital for examination in time.
