What food do you eat when your hands and feet are numb?
1. Low-calorie diet: The total calories provided by diet are to maintain normal weight.
2, low cholesterol, low animal fat diet: excessive consumption of foods containing cholesterol and animal fat, easy to increase serum cholesterol and triglycerides, and promote atherosclerosis. Try to eat vegetable oil, soybeans and bean products. Vegetable oil should not be eaten too much. Too much vegetable oil will make people obese and promote the formation of atherosclerosis.
3, low-salt diet: too much sodium intake can prevent water from being filtered out by the kidneys, which can increase the circulating blood volume, increase blood pressure and increase the burden on the heart.
What medicine is best for numbness of hands and feet?
There are many reasons for numbness in hands and feet, some of which are caused by poor tendons and veins. There are many reasons for fatigue, such as arthritis and rheumatism. Long-term foot activity rate is low, blood flow is slow, and feet can also be hurt. The nervous system is not well regulated. It is easy to kick. People with generally good physique generally don't have numbness in their feet, and people with insufficient qi and blood are often prone to numbness in their legs and feet. What is the reason? The root cause of numbness is that the blood circulation is blocked and the oxygen supply to cells is insufficient after a long time. Once the blood returns, some spirits will be numb. Apart from some circulatory disorders, the cause of this symptom may be vitamin C deficiency. People with another anemia generally have low blood oxygen supply capacity, so it may be iron deficiency anemia. You should eat more iron-containing foods, such as "spinach" (the most iron in vegetables), chicken liver, pig liver, lean meat (containing zinc), kelp (containing iodine), black sesame and black. Vitamin C has the function of participating in hematopoiesis and promoting iron absorption and utilization. At the same time, eat more foods rich in high-quality protein, such as eggs, milk, fish, lean meat, shrimp and beans.
Protective measures to prevent numbness of hands and feet
After the patient is cured, careful measures should be taken to prevent recurrence, and attention should be paid to keeping warm, exercising and eating. Specific measures are as follows:
1. Proper exercise:
Proper exercise has a good effect on patients with arthropathy, which makes the affected joints selectively engage in some activities, which is not only conducive to the exchange of joint fluid, the removal of metabolites, inflammatory products and harmful substances in the joint cavity, the relief of pain, but also conducive to the improvement of joint contracture. Enhance the strength of muscles around joints, prevent muscle atrophy and increase bone density. Therefore, joint mobility increases and functional damage decreases. Whole-body exercise can also enhance patients' physical strength and cardiopulmonary function, improve their self-care ability, and restore patients' body and mind.
Principles to be followed in the exercise:
① Do not feel tired the next day after exercise;
② rheumatism should be exercised as soon as possible.
2. A reasonable diet:
Because rheumatism is a chronic disease, it often has symptoms such as low fever, muscle atrophy and anemia, which consumes a lot of physical strength, so it is necessary to supplement high protein, vitamin D and calcium for osteoporosis patients, and iron for anemia patients. Soybean is rich in protein and trace elements, which can promote the metabolism of muscles, bones, joints and tendons and help to repair lesions. Nurses should encourage patients to eat some beans properly to avoid cold, spicy and seafood.
3. Pay attention to keep warm and avoid cold and humidity;
90% patients are sensitive to climate change, which is manifested by cloudy days, rain, cold and humidity, and the local swelling and pain of joints can be aggravated. Some patients' condition changes are related to the seasons, especially in the seasons of alternating winter, spring, autumn and winter, which often makes the patients who are usually in a stable period suddenly have symptoms aggravated, thus making the previous treatment wasted. Therefore, we should consciously pay attention to the influence of climate and season on diseases, so as to adjust the coldness and temperature in time, give priority to prevention, pay attention to avoiding cold and keeping warm, and reduce the adverse effects of environmental factors on diseases.
4. Build confidence and overcome anxiety:
As a patient, we must first face the reality and have a correct understanding of the disease. Some patients may still fail to achieve satisfactory results after a period of treatment, resulting in great mental and economic pressure, resulting in anxiety and loss of confidence in treatment. Therefore, it is necessary for nurses to explain some knowledge to patients, because most patients can be cured, such as patients with advanced rheumatoid arthritis, polio, severe hyperplasia and disc herniation. Therefore, as long as patients maintain an optimistic mood, adopt a positive attitude, establish a regular life system, take part in some physical exercises appropriately, cultivate their interest in life and divert their attention from diseases.
