vascular sclerosis

Introduction

Introduction Many elderly people have different degrees of hardening of the arteries. The blood vessels are very elastic. In order to make the blood flow smoothly, the inner wall is very soft. However, the blood vessels that form arteriosclerosis will thicken and harden, and the inner wall will have a powdery tumor (a porridge-like hardened nest), which is a bulge caused by the adhesion of cholesterol and platelets. As a result, the lumen of the blood vessel narrows, making the blood circulation unsmooth, and it will completely block when it continues to deteriorate.

Cause

Cause

More and unhealthy lifestyles, accumulation of toxins in the body, environmental pollution leads to blood viscous condensation, life, work stress, smoking, alcoholism, overnutrition, blood viscosity, abnormal blood components (toxins), etc., severely exceeded the standard, forming arteries Hardening, vascular inflammation and initial thrombosis, mid-stage, blood stage, adolescence, even infancy, mid-term, vascular disease, blood flow change, young and middle-aged can occur, late stage, organ injury period or life failure period (sickness Period) vascular occlusion is serious, more than 50% lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, peripheral angiogenesis, severe hypertension, and severe life failure. In recent years, the incidence of geriatric diseases among young people has increased year by year.

More common in patients with high blood pressure or hyperlipidemia or diabetes. Have long-term smoking or drinking habits. It is characterized by cold and numbness of hands and feet; memory loss, forgetting about numbers, dates, and names of people, and forgetting about what you just want to do; personality changes, irritability, mood change, impermanence; overweight; attention The focus is not concentrated, and the thinking response becomes dull.

The movement becomes dull; dizziness, headache, light and heavy, repeated attacks; when holding chopsticks or pen, the hand will tremble slightly; sleep is very shallow, it is difficult to sleep after waking up, dreams, and often insomnia; easy to burnout, can not afford to Wait.

In the above phenomenon, we should strengthen dietary improvement, low-cholesterol, low-salt, low-sugar diet, do not smoke and drink a lot, and do appropriate exercise, especially pay attention to the health of the arteries, regular arteriosclerosis examination.

Diagnosis

Differential diagnosis

Symptom identification of vascular sclerosis

1, vascular malformations: vascular tumor (vascular tumor) also known as tubular tumors, or hemangioma, lymphangioma, respectively; but some vascular lesions are not true tumors, it can only be called vascular malformation. It is a tumor or deformity derived from blood vessels or lymphatic vessels. Generally speaking, vascular malformation is a group of abnormal mature blood vessels with certain occupying properties, and the damage is mainly due to rupture and bleeding, or vascular embolism.

2, diffuse vascular keratosis: ceramide trihexosidosis (ceramide trihexosidosis), according to X-linked recessive inheritance. First discovered and reported by Fabry and Anderson (1898). The incidence rate is about 1/40 000, and the vast majority are male hemizygous. Various ethnic groups have been discovered, and many reports have been reported in China.

3. Thinning of the blood vessel wall: Capillary is the blood vessel with the smallest diameter and the widest distribution. They branch and fit into each other. The degree of density of capillary networks in various organs and tissues varies greatly. Metabolic tissues and organs such as skeletal muscle, heart muscle, lung, kidney and many glands have dense capillary networks; tissues with lower metabolism such as bone, For muscle tendons and ligaments, the capillary network is sparse.
