A 53-year-old man was suddenly paralyzed by cerebral infarction in the middle of the night, and his family members were very puzzled.
Strokes are menacing and can lead to serious consequences in a very short period of time if left untreated. However, strokes that seem to come on suddenly are not without any symptoms, and many strokes are often due to unhealthy lifestyle habits.
Just like this man, he usually likes to drink at dinner in the evening, and after drinking, he goes to play mahjong again, and this time he has a cerebral infarction, just after drinking.
The doctor said that long-term drinking damage to blood vessels is very large, drinking alcohol will not only cause high blood pressure, but also interfere with fat metabolism, cause elevated blood lipids and atherosclerosis, so drinking alcohol is easy to induce acute cerebrovascular accidents, this man likes to play mahjong after drinking, he is often emotional when playing mahjong, there is no good winning and losing mentality, when emotional, blood pressure will further soar, and danger is more likely to occur.
Cerebral infarction is more likely to occur in middle-aged and elderly people, the main reason is that entering the stage of middle and old age, the risk of chronic diseases is higher, common chronic diseases include hypertension and diabetes, their biggest harm is the occurrence of complications, especially vascular complications, both diseases are easy to lead to atherosclerosis, so that the blood vessels of the brain become more fragile, less elastic, over time, the risk of disease is also higher.
Therefore, for middle-aged and elderly people, more attention should be paid to preventing the occurrence of cerebral infarction.
Today, we will analyze it from a special time period, which is after dinner.
Why is this a special time period? Because the period from dinner to bed is relatively short, but in this short time, it is a place where many bad habits gather, and for middle-aged and elderly people, if one is not careful, it is easy to induce cerebral infarction.
1. Middle-aged and elderly people should smoke less after dinner
Many people like to sit on the sofa after dinner, leisurely smoke one cigarette after another, and there is even a saying, a cigarette after a meal, better than a living immortal! However, to smoke immediately after a full meal, in fact, it is easy to lead to danger, many people eat dinner is particularly greasy, a large amount of blood rushes to the digestive tract after a full meal, the head will be relatively in a state of lack of oxygen, at this time and keep smoking, the harmful substances in the cigarette are easy to induce blood clots, so the risk of stroke is higher.
2. Middle-aged and elderly people should drink less alcohol after dinner
Many people like to get together after dinner to go out to drink and have fun, but for middle-aged and elderly people, it is very dangerous to do so, and many cerebrovascular diseases appear after drinking, because heavy drinking can easily lead to fluctuations in blood pressure, which will make blood pressure rise sharply in a short period of time.
3. Middle-aged and elderly people should go to bed after dinner
Many people feel tired after a full meal, the main reason is that a large amount of blood rushes to the digestive tract after a full meal, and the brain is in a state of relative lack of oxygen.
If you go to bed immediately after eating, the blood circulation slows down, and the ischemia and hypoxia of the brain will be more serious, and if this continues, it is easy to induce cerebral infarction.
4. Middle-aged and elderly people should take a bath immediately after dinner
Many people have the habit of taking a bath immediately after a meal, to tell the truth, this is not a good habit, the reason is also very simple, the brain is in a state of relative hypoxia after a full meal, at this time immediately go to the bath, bathing will make the capillaries of the skin dilate, thereby further reducing the blood flow to the brain, so it is more likely to have cerebral infarction.
For middle-aged and elderly people, we must pay attention to the abnormal signals sent by cerebral infarction, including unexplained dizziness, headache, nausea and vomiting, limb numbness, fatigue, limb hemiplegia, crooked corners of the mouth, etc., and rush to the hospital as soon as possible, keeping in mind that the golden thrombolysis time is 4-6 hours.
