About me
Member of the Jining Branch of the Shandong Respiratory Society and the Jining Emergency Medicine Poisoning Society. Graduated from Jining Medical College, engaged in clinical work in internal medicine and emergency medicine for over 30 years, with rich experience in diagnosing and treating common and prevalent diseases in internal medicine and internal medicine emergencies. Has unique insights in the application of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Authored more than 10 articles published in national journals, including "Clinical Analysis of 50 Cases of Acute Episodes of Pulmonary Heart Disease Treated with Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine" and "Treatment of Coronary Heart Disease Blood Stagnation Type from the Perspective of Phlegm". Organized and participated in the "Clinical Study of Blood Lipid Clearing Treatment for Primary Hyperlipidemia" and was awarded the third prize for scientific research achievements in Jining City. Contributed to the editing of two works, including the "Clinical Diagnostic Techniques Manual".

What to eat to supplement for rheumatic heart disease?
Rheumatic heart disease often occurs in people with lower resistance, making them susceptible to colds and fevers. Their diet should include foods that enhance immune and disease resistance, such as lean meats, fish, and seafood, which are high in protein, along with milk and eggs. Eating fruits that are rich in vitamins and fibers, like apples, avocados, oranges, and dried fruits, as well as consuming more vegetables, can strengthen the body's resistance and provide various vitamins and trace elements needed by the human body.
Causes of Myocardial Infarction
Myocardial infarction is a relatively common severe heart disease in clinical practice, which can lead to serious complications and even death if effective emergency treatment is not administered. The main cause of myocardial infarction is due to long-term dyslipidemia. Elevated blood lipids cause arteriosclerosis and coronary artery hardening, thickening of the intima, and plaque formation. High lipids slow down blood flow, making it very easy for blood clots to form. Detached plaques and the formation of blood clots obstruct the blood vessels supplying the heart muscle, causing the heart muscle to lose its blood supply and undergo necrosis.
Can rheumatic heart disease be inherited?
Rheumatic heart disease is not hereditary and it is not a genetic disease. Rheumatic heart disease is a hypersensitivity disease caused by an infection, especially following a streptococcal infection. This type of infection leads to the body producing antibodies. In some individuals, these antibodies combine with antigens, causing inflammation of the collagen tissue and affecting the heart. This results in inflammatory lesions on the heart valves, causing the valves to become narrowed or fail to close completely, leading to pathological changes known as rheumatic heart disease.
Can you exercise with premature ventricular contractions?
Can individuals with ventricular premature beats exercise? It is necessary to undergo an electrocardiogram and determine the cause of the ventricular premature beats. Patients with frequent ventricular premature beats due to coronary heart disease, rheumatic heart disease, or viral myocarditis, especially those with heart failure, should not participate in exercise and need prolonged rest. Increased physical activity could exacerbate the heart's burden and worsen premature beats. For ventricular premature beats caused by physiological reasons, it is advised to engage in more aerobic exercises. Aerobic exercise can enhance the heart's contractility and conductivity, which has a beneficial effect on improving this type of premature beat.
Can you exercise with premature ventricular contractions?
Whether or not one can exercise with ventricular premature beats depends on the nature of the premature beats and the underlying disease causing them. Premature beats can be seen in healthy individuals and may occur due to instability in the autonomic nervous system. Patients with this type of premature beat can benefit from aerobic exercise, which can enhance cardiac contractility and improve cardiac conduction, aiding in the recovery from premature beats. However, in cases of severe ventricular premature beats caused by organic heart disease, it is necessary to rest and avoid excessive exercise, as overexertion can increase the cardiac load and exacerbate the premature beats. Patients with premature beats should follow the guidance of a doctor and use effective medication for management.
Heart attack is what disease
Myocardial infarction is a serious heart condition caused by the formation of atherosclerotic thrombosis in the coronary arteries, blocking the blood vessels that supply the heart muscle and leading to myocardial necrosis. Timely rescue treatment is necessary, and without effective treatment, it can lead to serious complications. Common complications include heart failure, cardiogenic shock, and arrhythmias, which can be life-threatening. Therefore, after a myocardial infarction occurs, it is essential to immediately go to the hospital for rescue treatment, using effective medications to promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, dilate the coronary arteries, and improve myocardial blood supply, among other treatment methods.
What foods should be eaten for hyperlipidemia?
People with high blood lipids should first pay attention to a diet low in fat, sugar, and oil, and eat more fruits and vegetables that are rich in dietary fiber, high in vitamins, and high in trace elements. These effective substances can reduce blood viscosity and increase the elasticity of blood vessels, thereby achieving the effect of regulating blood lipids. Common foods to consume include apples, pineapples, grapefruits, oranges, kiwis, seaweed, rapeseed, shiitake mushrooms, winter melon, celery, spinach, onions, and wood ear mushrooms. These foods are all suitable for people with high blood lipids.
Can people with heart disease drink alcohol?
Patients with heart disease should not drink alcohol, especially those with severe heart conditions, including heart failure and arrhythmias. Drinking alcohol can excite the sympathetic nervous system, increase heart rate, enhance myocardial oxygen consumption, increase cardiac burden, and worsen arrhythmias and heart failure. Additionally, patients with organic heart disease who regularly require medication should avoid alcohol. Alcohol can chemically interact with certain medications or reduce their effectiveness, potentially harming the body.
Is ventricular premature beat a heart disease?
Ventricular premature beats can occur in the normal population, caused by autonomic nervous dysfunction. These premature beats are not considered heart disease. However, ventricular premature beats caused by certain heart diseases are considered heart disease. Common heart diseases include congenital heart disease, viral myocarditis, rheumatic heart disease, coronary artery disease, and pulmonary heart disease. These diseases lead to myocardial damage and ischemia, causing abnormal conduction rhythms, resulting in premature beats. Treatment should be provided based on different causes, and the premature beats should be corrected simultaneously.
Causes of high blood pressure
Hypertension is clinically divided into primary hypertension and secondary hypertension. Primary hypertension is characterized by elevated blood pressure without other symptoms, and the current clinical diagnostic methods cannot determine the cause of the blood pressure rise, which is referred to as primary hypertension. Secondary hypertension occurs as a result of other diseases, with the most common being hyperthyroidism, glomerulonephritis, arteritis, atherosclerosis, and other diseases causing high blood pressure. After the onset of hypertension, effective antihypertensive drugs must be used for treatment. Hypertension is not to be feared, but the damage it causes to the body is.
