Is it true that sudden death is painless? After reading the whole process of this young man’s sudden death, you will know!

Graphic has nothing to do with it. Xing Yongtian

Doctor: This is no ordinary pain.

He was only 27 years old this year. He was sent to the hospital at 9:50 am and was rescued until 3 am, but he died unfortunately!

The patient felt chest pain at first, and then went to the hospital, but because of his serious illness, heart failure soon appeared. Heart failure is simply understood as hypoxia, and patients with hypoxia will feel chest tightness, dyspnea, shock, cold and wet, and extremely painful.

For example, heart failure is like a person falling into a water tank. A person fell into the river, and if he is not rescued in time for a few minutes, he may be gone, that is, he will suffer for a few minutes.

However, today, this patient with myocardial infarction and heart failure fell into the big water tank at 10: 00 in the morning. He has been deprived of oxygen, has been holding his breath, and has been having difficulty breathing, but he has been unable to climb out of the water tank and has been suffering for nearly 20 hours.

This is no ordinary pain!

There are also some patients with myocardial infarction who did not die suddenly, but eventually suffered from heart failure because of late medical treatment or large myocardial infarction area.

Chronic heart failure, once it happens, cannot be cured at first. Second, it will get worse. Third, especially for heart failure with heart function grade 3 or 4, patients will be in a state of hypoxia for a long time. When walking, eating and going to the toilet, they may feel chest tightness and suffocation, and even if they can’t lie flat when sleeping, they may be deprived of oxygen and have difficulty breathing.

Remember 3 points, most sudden deaths can be prevented.

Sudden death often occurs suddenly, which can occur at any time, any place, any crowd-even seemingly "healthy" people.

In fact, all sudden deaths are "long-planned" behaviors of the body, and the causes are also traceable.

Before the death of a sudden death, almost all have the following three points:

1, whether to control the "three highs"

When many middle-aged people die suddenly, their families say that they are usually fine and have no illness.

Is there really nothing wrong with it? Have you had a physical examination in the last year? Have you taken your blood pressure in the last month?

For example, the most important high-risk factors of coronary heart disease and myocardial infarction are hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia, which are "three highs". However, most people with three highs will not feel anything at the beginning, or even feel that they have three highs for several years. Therefore, it is necessary to check whether you have diabetes, hyperlipidemia or hypertension through physical examination.

To prevent sudden death, we must first know whether we have three highs. If we have three highs, we must actively and formally control and monitor them, so as to avoid long-term uncontrolled, which will eventually aggravate cardiovascular stenosis, cause thrombosis, and lead to sudden death due to myocardial infarction.

2. Do you have bad living habits?

Serious cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction are the root causes of sudden death. That is to say, with this potential disease, sudden death will occur.

However, sudden death is generally caused by inducing factors, that is, personal lifestyle and habits, which induce sudden death.

Many sudden deaths, especially young ones, mostly have some inducing factors.

For example, irregular life, staying up late for a long time, overwork and physical overdraft will induce plaque rupture, form thrombosis, cause myocardial infarction and lead to sudden death.

For example, smoking and drinking a lot will lead to an increase in heart rate and blood pressure, which will lead to plaque rupture, thrombosis, myocardial infarction and sudden death.

For example, negative emotions such as mood swings, excessive stress, and violent anger can also lead to plaque rupture, thrombosis, myocardial infarction, and sudden death.

For example, cold stimulation, hard defecation, strenuous exercise, overeating and so on can easily lead to plaque rupture, thrombosis, myocardial infarction and sudden death.

Most people who died suddenly had these behaviors before their lives, so to prevent sudden death, we must first reduce or avoid the above-mentioned inducing factors.

3, whether to pay attention to the heart alarm?

Even if the three highs were not found, even if the inducing factors could not be avoided, there were still some people who died suddenly, and there was actually a heart alarm as the last line of defense for sudden death.

Angina pectoris is the last alarm of these sudden deaths, but this alarm may be ignored, which led to the final sudden death.

There are many manifestations of angina pectoris, not just the pain in the heart, but the most common manifestation is chest pain or precordial pain.

But angina pectoris may also be pain in the chest, back, jaw, upper abdomen, xiphoid process, left arm, shoulders and other parts;

Some angina pectoris doesn’t hurt at all, which may be manifested as chest tightness, sweating, nausea and vomiting.

The biggest feature of angina pectoris is paroxysmal, especially after activity. For example, a person usually has no discomfort when walking fast, going upstairs, running, exercising, activities, etc., but the above performance lasts for a few minutes at a time after a recent sudden activity, most of which lasts for 3-8 minutes, generally not more than 2-15 minutes, and can generally be relieved after a few minutes’ rest. Then this discomfort is highly suspected to be angina pectoris.

Angina pectoris is the alarm of myocardial infarction, or even the last alarm before sudden death. You must see a doctor immediately!

In short, remember these three points to prevent most sudden deaths!

Stay away from the sudden death of myocardial infarction and pay attention to these six points in daily life.

1. Control your figure

Overweight, especially obesity, is an independent risk factor for three highs and cardiovascular disease.

Keeping your mouth shut and holding your legs is the most effective way to control your weight. People who are not fat should try not to get fat, and those who are fat should control their weight as soon as possible.

2. Keep moving

Exercise can not only prevent the "three highs", exercise heart and lung function, and exercise skeletal muscles; Exercise can improve immunity; Exercise can prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Exercise is very simple. The best exercise is walking. It’s never too late to start exercising.

3, scientific diet

Too much greasy food, especially saturated fatty acids, that is, fat meat, viscera, pork, beef and mutton, and trans fatty acids, such as various fast food and fried food. These foods will raise blood lipids, which in turn will aggravate atherosclerosis.

Also, eating too much salt, not enough fruits, not enough vegetables, not enough coarse grains, not enough nuts and not enough aquatic products are all unscientific diets.

A diet with low salt, low oil, low sugar and less refined grains, more vegetables and fruits, more aquatic products and a variety of diets are scientific, which is a diet that protects blood vessels.

4. Stay away from alcohol and tobacco

Smoking will not only damage the lungs, but also damage blood vessels, aggravate atherosclerosis and aggravate blood vessel blockage. Drinking alcohol, especially alcoholism, will raise blood pressure, raise blood lipids, aggravate atherosclerosis, and then lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. So stay away from alcohol and tobacco, and quit smoking and drinking.

5. Avoid staying up late

Don’t stay up late. It’s good for protecting blood vessels to go to bed at 8: 00.

6. Have a good attitude

Long-term bad mentality and negative energy will also increase the risk of atherosclerosis. The risk of myocardial infarction will increase several times when you are irritable, and the risk of sudden cardiovascular death will increase several times when you are angry.

Therefore, it is necessary to have a positive, kind, sunny and grateful heart, which is conducive to protecting blood vessels.
