Is your heart not in good condition? Is your head a harbinger of trouble? Pay attention to these 4 abnormal signals!

In our body, the heart is like a tireless "engine", continuously delivering oxygen and nutrients to the whole body. However, this powerful organ also has a fragile side. When it has problems, in addition to obvious symptoms such as palpitations and pain, some abnormalities in the head that are easily overlooked may also occur. Today, let's talk about the four "alarms" that the head will send out when the heart is not in good condition.

If there is a problem with the heart, there will be 4 abnormalities in the head

1. Pale complexion and cyanotic lips

People with bad heart often have tiredness written on their faces. Due to poor blood circulation, the skin loses its color and the complexion becomes pale and dull. The whole person looks like an eggplant hit by frost, with no energy or vitality.

Some people may also have cyanosis of the lips, which is due to insufficient blood supply to the heart, resulting in lack of blood and oxygen to the body. This is more common in people with congenital heart disease or heart disease caused by valve problems.

2. Profuse sweating on the face

If your face is still sweating profusely even without much exercise , this may be a sign of heart disease. This abnormal sweating in heart patients is often related to sympathetic nerve excitement. For example, when angina pectoris or myocardial infarction occurs, sweating symptoms will occur, accompanied by compression, stuffiness, and suffocation pain behind the sternum. Therefore, if you sweat profusely even in a resting state, you must be vigilant and seek medical attention in time.

3. "Senior rings" appear in the eyes

Some early signs of cardiovascular disease will leave traces on the eyes, such as a white ring-like structure around the cornea , the so-called "senile ring". This ring is a lipid deposit formed by metabolic disorders caused by the blockage of capillaries at the edge of the cornea. Studies have shown that almost all people with senile rings have varying degrees of arteriosclerosis, and when this happens in people under 40 years old, the risk of atherosclerosis should be considered.

In addition, the appearance of small yellow bumps (xanthomas) on the eyelids also indicates high blood lipids in the body and may increase the risk of heart disease.

4. Earlobe folds

Normal people have plump and smooth earlobes, but people with bad hearts often have a deep wrinkle on their earlobes , which is especially common in the earlobes of patients with coronary heart disease, so it is also called the "coronary heart disease groove" or "ear fold heart sign". This is because the earlobes are very sensitive to ischemia, and when arteriosclerosis occurs, the earlobes are prone to microcirculation disorders, which in turn cause wrinkles. Although wrinkles on the earlobes do not necessarily mean coronary heart disease, the probability of this group of people getting the disease is 8 times higher than that of normal people. If you also have high blood pressure, diabetes, overweight, high blood lipids, smoking, etc., it is recommended to go to the hospital for a cardiovascular examination in time.

To protect your heart, you need to do these 6 things every day

1. Eat a light diet: Eat less salty, pickled and fried foods, eat more vegetables and whole grains, eat meat in moderation, and control the daily salt intake to no more than 5 grams. You can also eat more oats, corn, millet, lotus seeds, black fungus, onions, dates, apples and other foods that nourish the heart.

2. Moderate exercise: About 30 minutes of aerobic exercise every day, such as jogging, brisk walking, yoga, dancing, etc., can promote myocardial metabolism and enhance myocardial contractility.

3. Control your weight: Keep your weight within a reasonable range. Being overweight will increase the risk of coronary heart disease.

4. Get enough sleep: Stay up late less to avoid autonomic dysfunction causing heart problems. Studies have shown that people who sleep less than 7 hours a night have a significantly increased risk of heart disease.

5. Stay away from tobacco and alcohol: Nicotine in cigarettes and excessive alcohol will damage blood vessel health and increase the burden on the heart, so try to stay away from them.

6. Regular physical examinations: Check blood pressure and blood sugar regularly. Patients with diabetes and hypertension should take medication as prescribed by the doctor and actively regulate blood sugar and blood pressure.
