Investigation and statistics show that the incidence of cerebral thrombosis and coronary heart disease accounts for 69.5% of the annual incidence in autumn and winter. Experts remind that although cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are high in autumn and winter, the treatment effect at this time is also the best.

Autumn and winter hypertension

Autumn and winter are coming, and the weather is getting colder. Many old people are welcoming the "big exam" of their bodies. The cold environment makes people's blood pressure rise easily. At this time, it can be noted that patients with hypertension should increase the dosage appropriately, maintain a healthy lifestyle and avoid health risks.

The fluctuation of human blood pressure has three characteristics.

First, with the increase of age, blood pressure will rise;

Second, in winter and summer, or in low temperature and high temperature environment, blood pressure will change;

Third, blood pressure fluctuates during the day and at night.

Many hypertensive patients have different blood pressure in winter and summer. Because the ambient temperature will cause vasoconstriction, the temperature will be higher in summer, the blood pressure will be lower, and the blood pressure will be higher in winter. Even some people have completely normal blood pressure in summer, as long as they take medicine seasonally. When blood pressure fluctuates, the drugs used by patients should also be adjusted. For example, when blood pressure rises in winter, medication will increase. The first choice is to increase the dose. If the dosage is not well controlled, it is necessary to increase the types of drugs. On the contrary, medication should be reduced in summer. If you want to go to plateau and cold areas, your blood pressure may rise, and you should also increase your medication.

How to prevent blood pressure from rising?

1, eat less salt, 3-6g a day (half to a beer bottle cap) is more appropriate;

2. Eat more foods with high potassium, high calcium and low sodium to increase the intake of potassium in the diet;

3. Quit smoking;

4. wine restriction;

5. Maintain normal weight and avoid obesity;

6. Adhere to regular aerobic exercise;

7. Keep a psychological balance.

Hyperglycemia in autumn and winter

In autumn and winter, people's appetite increases, sugar intake increases, blood flow slows down, and blood vessels are prone to thickening of the inner wall and narrowing of the lumen. Therefore, autumn and winter are the seasons when diabetics are prone to relapse and aggravation. Therefore, diabetic patients need to control blood sugar in autumn to prevent complications.

Hyperlipidemia in autumn and winter

Autumn and winter are the high incidence seasons of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in the elderly, and controlling blood lipids and preventing hyperlipidemia are the key. Because the elderly are afraid of the cold, they often reduce outdoor activities, and some elderly people pay attention to tonic in autumn and winter, and often eat some high-calorie foods, which leads to the increase of blood lipids, so it is particularly important to do a good job in autumn and winter health care.

Nowadays, people pay more attention to physical examination. If the physical examination finds hyperlipidemia, don't worry too much. It is best to review in six weeks. If the symptoms are dizziness, mental fatigue, insomnia, forgetfulness, numbness of limbs, chest tightness, etc. Be alert to hyperlipidemia and go to the hospital for a detailed examination immediately because these symptoms are easily confused with the clinical symptoms of other diseases.

Patients with hyperlipidemia should change their bad living habits, adjust their diet reasonably, limit their daily total calories, and make their weight components reach the standard weight. In addition, we should actively treat the primary diseases that cause hyperlipidemia, such as diabetes and nephrotic syndrome, avoid using some drugs that can raise blood lipids, such as hormones, and formally use lipid-lowering drugs.

In addition, the elderly with coronary heart disease should take medicine as soon as possible to reduce the risk index of hyperlipidemia, because the appropriate blood lipid level of patients with coronary heart disease should be lower than that of normal people.

Furthermore, because young people have unhealthy diets, irregular work and rest, and hyperlipidemia tends to be more and more biased towards young people, young people should have a light diet, do not eat high-fat foods, and increase exercise.
