Modern people are faced with the challenges of fast pace of life and great pressure, accompanied by staying up late, irregular eating habits, lack of exercise, obesity and other problems, which lead to the frequent occurrence of various physical diseases, among which heart disease is a common disease. So, do you know anything about the early symptoms of heart disease?
What are the symptoms in the early stage of heart disease?
1. Chest pain: Chest pain is one of the most common symptoms of heart disease. When chest pain occurs, be alert that it may be a sign of heart disease. This kind of pain is usually located in the left anterior chest, but some patients also show pain behind the sternum, under the xiphoid process and even in the right chest.
Chest pain may be manifested as a feeling of tight squeezing, and sometimes it will spread to the left shoulder, left arm and even the ring finger of the left hand. Some people’s symptoms may be atypical, and they only feel dyspnea or chest discomfort, which should also be paid enough attention.
2. Palpitation and shortness of breath: When doing general housework or climbing three floors continuously, I feel that my heartbeat is obviously accelerated, and symptoms such as shortness of breath and chest tightness appear, which may be the performance of weakened heart reserve function.
3. Can’t lie flat: This is a typical manifestation of heart disease. You may need to raise your pillow to fall asleep in the early stage, otherwise you will feel chest tightness. In the later period, it often happens that you can’t lie down or stay awake at night, and you have to sit up to relieve it, which often indicates the performance of cardiac insufficiency.
4. Local purple: purple in lips, nose tip, earlobe, fingertips and other parts is a feature of some heart diseases, such as pulmonary heart disease and cyanotic congenital heart disease, which is a manifestation of poor blood flow, indicating decreased heart function.
5. Cough and hemoptysis: long-term cough with unknown causes may be a sign of heart disease; If cough is accompanied by hemoptysis, it is likely to be a sign of cardiac dysfunction, and relevant examinations should be carried out in time.
6. Edema of lower limbs: edema appears in lower limbs. Pressing with fingers will leave traces of depression. Early edema may appear on the instep, toes, ankles and other parts, which is one of the manifestations of cardiac dysfunction.
7. Arrhythmia: self-perception of irregular pulse beating, or tachycardia (heartbeat more than 100 beats/min) or slowness (heartbeat less than 60 beats/min) may be signals of heart disease.
8. Fatigue: When summer comes, many people will feel weak and lack energy, and sometimes they will think that this is a normal summer state. However, if this state of fatigue and weakness appears for a long time, it may be an early signal of heart disease and cannot be ignored.
9. Dizziness: Sudden palpitations, dizziness, black vision, feeling of falling down, or even a temporary disturbance of consciousness may be a manifestation of decreased cardiac contractility or cerebral ischemia.
If the symptoms mentioned above appear, especially for middle-aged and elderly people or people with high risk factors of heart disease, we should be vigilant and carry out relevant examinations as soon as possible.

Finger exercises can make the heart strong, the blood more smooth, and reduce the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Specific exercise methods include pressing and pulling fingers.

Walking: Walking has many benefits to blood vessels, such as removing harmful substances from blood vessels, improving and improving the structure and function of the heart, enhancing the elasticity of blood vessels, accelerating metabolism, causing coronary artery dilatation and improving blood supply to the heart.
When walking, you should keep the rhythm, hold your chest up, tuck in your abdomen, look ahead, swing your arms, land on your heels, move your center of gravity forward to the soles of your feet and toes, and push your feet backward to promote the blood flow back to your heart and accelerate the blood circulation of your whole body.
3. Tai Ji Chuan: Tai Ji Chuan is a traditional fitness boxing in China, which combines static and dynamic, combines rigidity and softness, and can calm the mind and soothe the nerves. Long-term adherence to Tai Ji Chuan can also prevent many chronic diseases.
