The recent World Cup is in full swing. Up to now, this is the first time to hold the World Cup in winter. It is a feast of football for fans and friends. Since many games are held in the early morning, many fans and friends who like football may have to stay up late to watch It’s time to play football. It’s worth noting that some people say that there must be sudden death every World Cup. Why is it so dangerous to watch football? What should we pay attention to when watching the game late at night?

Why is watching the World Cup so dangerous?

The sudden death of a fan in Bangladesh is not an isolated case, because a comprehensive review of the data of previous World Cups shows that the health status of fans in many countries is still not optimistic.

A paper published by a Swiss scholar showed that during the World Cup in Japan and South Korea in 2002, sudden cardiac death among Swiss adults increased by 60%, which put a lot of pressure on hospitals. After the opening of the World Cup in Germany in 2006, the number of heart emergency patients in Germany also increased significantly, and the incidence of sudden acute cardiovascular events among fans increased by 2.66 times.

Many experts believe that the reason for sudden death may be related to people's over-excited emotions and acute cardiovascular events, especially people suffering from heart disease, high blood pressure, and vascular diseases. Easy to induce myocardial infarction and cerebral hemorrhage.

In addition, it is worth noting that this year's World Cup is held in the cold winter, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events are more likely to occur after the cold weather. In winter, people mostly live indoors, outdoor sports are significantly reduced, greasy diet, and blood viscosity increase, which can easily induce thrombosis and lead to myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction or even sudden death.

What should I pay attention to when watching football late at night?

The World Cup is only held every 4 years. For fans and friends, it is too difficult to accept not watching the game. Even if you stay up late, you can't stop the enthusiasm and fun of watching. So, if we want to watch the game late at night, what should we pay attention to so that we can watch the game without hurting our body?

1) First: prevent blood pressure from rising

Human blood pressure is greatly affected by emotions. Watching intense and exciting football games for a long time will lead to excessive secretion of adrenaline in the body, sympathetic nerve excitement, increased heart rate, and increased blood pressure. Therefore, it is recommended that fans and friends control the time of watching the game and watch the game for a while. Go out to breathe fresh air during the intermission to relieve tension. If you have high blood pressure in the past, you must take antihypertensive drugs on time to control your emotions.

2) Second: prevent myocardial infarction

Late at night is the time when myocardial infarction is more likely to occur. Watching football late at night does not conform to the routine of work and rest. The human body will increase the load on the heart if the human body is excited for a long time at night. If you drink some wine, coffee or strong tea to refresh yourself at this time, eat some barbecue High-calorie foods such as meat are likely to induce arrhythmia or myocardial infarction, and severe cases may lead to sudden death. Prepare some quick-acting Jiuxin pills, nitroglycerin tablets and other emergency medicines at home, which may save lives at critical moments.

3) Third: Prevent stroke

Fans and friends who have high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis in the past should also pay attention to their physical condition when watching the game. Facing the unpredictable game form on the field, the mood is easily affected by the game and the ups and downs. Excessive excitement or sadness can easily cause blood pressure Fluctuation in turn induces vascular thrombus to fall off, leading to cerebral infarction, or rupture of blood vessels, leading to cerebral hemorrhage, and even sudden death in severe cases.

Summarize

Therefore, I would like to remind everyone that the game is very important, and your body is even more important. Watching football happily and living a happy life is our ultimate pursuit. If we still have to work during the day, we should stop when watching football at night. Don’t blindly overdraw your body. Selective viewing will ensure that our body will not be overloaded to a certain extent. .
