Red light is sometimes a symptom of certain diseases. Caused by tuberculosis, rheumatic heart disease, epidemic hemorrhagic fever, hypertension, etc. Tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis that can invade many organs and is most common in tuberculosis of the lungs. The bacteria are important sources of infection. Human infection with tuberculosis does not necessarily occur, and when the resistance is reduced or the cell-mediated allergic reaction is increased, it may cause clinical disease. If diagnosed in time and treated reasonably, most of them will be cured.

1. Hypertension: A common cardiovascular disease characterized by increased arterial blood pressure (systolic blood pressure 140 and/or diastolic blood pressure 90 mnHg). The cause is unknown, and most of them are closely related to factors such as heredity, excessive salt intake, dietary structure, obesity, and social environment. The incidence is particularly high after the age of 40. Most of them are covered with red light and obesity. Most people compliment their Fuxing high-light photos, but they are actually "time bombs."

Second, hypercortisolism: due to pituitary adenoma and / or thalamic pituitary dysfunction caused by adrenal hyperplasia, cortical adenoma or adenocarcinoma caused by excessive secretion of cortisol. The patient's face is like a fifteen moon, and the red glow is shining. The trunk is fat, thin, blood sugar, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, combined with various endocrine examinations, brain and adrenal CT or MRI can be diagnosed. Early surgery is expected to be cured.

Third, ethanol poisoning: excessive intake of brandy, whiskey and other alcohols cause facial congestion (drunk appearance), emotional instability, multilingual, gait instability, nausea and vomiting, severe stupor and even coma, respiratory depression. Commonly used treatment methods are vomiting, gastric lavage, and a large amount of glucose solution.

Fourth, polycythemia vera: red blood cells and blood volume are absolutely increased, blood viscosity is increased. Middle and old age are more common, more men than women, the skin and mucous membranes are dark red, with cheeks, lips and noses. If Cao Cao's white face is highly anaemic, Guan Gong's red face may be a multi-blood face with true red blood cells.

Patients with tuberculosis often show facial flushing, and the surface appears to be "people like peach blossoms." Can be accompanied by loss of appetite, fatigue and low fever in the afternoon, night sweats, cough or hemoptysis.

Fifth, patients with rheumatic heart disease due to mitral stenosis, back to the heart of the blood blocked, resulting in pulmonary congestion, which can lead to facial red eyes purple, medically known as "mitral valve face". At the same time, clinical symptoms are often accompanied by palpitations, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, cough or hemoptysis.

Sixth, patients with epidemic hemorrhagic fever due to systemic telangiectasia, increased vascular permeability, early can be expressed as facial congestion, facial redness, medically known as "drunken face."

Diagnosis

Differential diagnosis

1. Hypertension Hypertension is a chronic disease that progresses slowly. Most of the early stages have no obvious symptoms. When the disease reaches a certain level, it can cause heart damage. The heart is excreted due to heart enlargement, cardiac hypertrophy, and myocardial contractility. The amount increases, causing the patient's head and face vasodilatation and congestion, resulting in redness of the face. At this time, the patient may also be accompanied by headache, facial fever, tinnitus, vertigo, palpitations and insomnia.

2. Tuberculosis patients often show facial flushing, with loss of appetite, fatigue and low fever in the afternoon, night sweats, cough or hemoptysis.

Patients with rheumatic heart disease due to mitral stenosis, blood flow to the heart is blocked, resulting in pulmonary congestion, resulting in facial red eyes purple, medically known as "mitral valve face". Patients also have palpitations, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing , cough or hemoptysis and other symptoms.

3. Patients with epidemic hemorrhagic fever due to systemic telangiectasia, increased vascular permeability, early can be expressed as facial congestion, facial redness, medically known as "drunken face."
