The blood vessels are not good, the legs and feet are prophetic, there are 3 symptoms in the legs and feet, indicating that your blood vessels are narrowing
Blood vessels are all over the body and are mainly divided into veins. Three major categories of arteries and capillaries!
Blood vessels are actually part of the blood circulation. The heart puts pressure on the blood vessels as it beats, so that the arteries contain oxygen. The nutrient blood is transported to all parts of the body, and the veins are responsible for recycling and utilizing the blood again.
At the same time, blood circulation is also a part of human metabolism. The liver will carry various waste products in the blood. Intercept and metabolize organs like the kidneys!
That is to say, the human body can function healthily only if the blood circulation is normal.
However, in recent years, with the change of diet and living habits, more and more cardiovascular-related diseases have entered the outbreak period, such as hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes and so on.
As chronic disease progresses, atherosclerosis may occur at a later stage. There are many problems, such as blood clots!
However, the process from atherosclerosis to thrombosis is a long and insidious process, and early patients often feel nothing.
However, as the narrowing of the blood vessels gradually increases, the body will also experience a series of symptoms.
If the following symptoms often occur in the legs and feet recently, be careful as a sign of vascular stenosis:
- Don’t ignore lower extremity numbness
Everyone should experience leg numbness, especially sitting for a long time. After standing for a long time, suddenly wake up feeling leg numbness. Tingling, need proper activity to relieve and go away.
The appearance of this symptom is actually caused by the posture compressing the blood vessels of the lower limbs, resulting in abnormal blood circulation;
If you haven't had any physical pressure recently, but often have lower extremity numbness. Symptoms such as tingling, this may be a sign of a narrowed blood vessel.
In addition, if you often feel numbness in one limb in the near future, it may also be related to cerebral arterial sclerosis. Blockage is one of the signals before the onset of cerebral infarction.
Especially when there is sudden numbness on one side of the limb, limited activity, and hemiplegia, it may be the outbreak of cerebral infarction.
- Abnormal lower extremity pain
Stenosis of blood vessels. Blockages occur not only in the lumen of arteries, but also in veins. After deep vein thrombosis, it is easy to cause phlebitis, and the patient may continue to experience abnormal pain in the lower limbs.
At the same time, under the influence of blood return, the pain will continue to increase, especially when sitting for a long time. After long-term exercise, the pain will be more obvious;
In addition, patients may experience intermittent claudication after stenosis or blockage of blood vessels in the lower extremities.
That said, after walking for a while, I suddenly felt an unusual pain in one foot. Couldn't walk normally, but it eased up again with a little rest, and got sick again at the next activity.
This is a blockage in a blood vessel. It is caused by the inability of blood to supply the tissues of the lower extremities properly.
- Abnormal changes in the legs
Although the lower extremities do not have important organ distributions, they also have a large number of blood vessels. The nervous system is connected to the body. The lower extremities are the areas where blood circulation will eventually reach;
After stenosis and blockage of blood vessels, in addition to the above symptoms, the patient can also reduce the local temperature of the lower limbs, reduce leg hair, purple skin color, varicose veins, edema and other manifestations.
When the venous thrombosis is serious, it can even cause local gangrene. Ulcers and other problems occur.
Vascular health is directly related to life expectancy and quality of life. For patients with three-high disease, any physical abnormality cannot be ignored. If the above manifestations recur in the near future, it is likely to be vascular stenosis. It is necessary to actively consult and check the arrival of venous thrombosis. Especially the sudden numbness of one side of the limb. Hemiplegia should seek medical attention as soon as possible.
