[Health Channel/Comprehensive Report] Artist Chen Jianzhou was reported to have suffered a myocardial infarction yesterday (15th). According to reports, on the afternoon of the 15th, Chen Jianzhou suddenly felt unwell and sought medical attention and was diagnosed with a myocardial infarction. His wife Fan Weiqi also rushed to the hospital immediately.

Xie Jiajuan, director of the geriatric medicine department of the Tri-Service General Hospital, said in the health education column of the Tri-Service General Hospital that myocardial infarction occurs quickly and quickly and is an emergency with a high mortality rate. Xie Jiajuan reminded that it is necessary to control the three highs in daily life to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular diseases. The occurrence of myocardial infarction does not depend on how young or old you are: in the elderly, due to the aging of blood vessels, coupled with insufficient water intake and insufficient exercise in winter, the blood viscosity is high, which tends to slow down the blood flow; in young people, the incidence rate is gradually increasing due to bad habits such as smoking, drinking, and staying up late.

Before the onset of myocardial infarction, there are usually precursors, including chest tightness like a heavy object pressing on the chest, instantaneous pain as big as a fist in the chest, difficulty breathing, cold sweats, vomiting, dizziness, etc. These are danger warnings. When this occurs, you should stop all activities and sit down or rest. In the event of acute chest tightness or pain, you can immediately take sublingual tablets to relieve the pain and perform self-rescue, then dial 119 to call an ambulance for medical treatment.

In addition, pay attention to the atypical symptoms of soreness and numbness in the arms, pain in the jaw, jaw, stomach, shoulders, upper abdomen and other parts. Xie Jiajuan said that because the cardiovascular flow is blocked, "radiating pain" spreads to other parts. Many people think that it is just physical fatigue and ignore the distress signal sent by the body. In addition to typical and atypical symptoms, about a quarter of people have no symptoms at all. It is recommended to have regular health check-ups and take early self-management.

How to prevent myocardial infarction? Xie Jiajuan emphasized that the only way to control weight, maintain a normal daily routine, and stay away from tobacco and alcohol is to maintain a happy mood and avoid accumulating stress that burdens the brain and heart. "Drinking water" is very important for the functioning of the body. It not only quenches thirst, but also keeps blood flowing. The elderly have not drank water all night. Drinking a cup of warm water when getting up can prevent blood vessel blockage.

Xie Jiajuan reminded that cold weather will have a negative impact on the heart. People must take measures to keep warm. They should not take it lightly indoors. They should make good use of scarves, hats, gloves, and socks to protect their necks and limbs. Wear an extra layer of clothes when going to the toilet in the middle of the night. Don’t get up too hastily in the morning. Slowly move your hands and feet to promote blood circulation. Do not stand up too hard to avoid severe fluctuations in blood pressure.
