a lot of people must be very happy
but don’t be too happy
Sometimes the so-called “better” is an illusion
There may be deeper health risks hidden!
On the contrary, it is more dangerous!
Which diseases in life suddenly improved
Need extra care?

01. The sudden improvement of presbyopia may be cataract
Most people will experience aging eyesight when they are 40 to 50 years old, commonly known as presbyopia. But there are also some people who suddenly can see clearly without wearing reading glasses after they reach the age of 60. At this time, the elderly need to be vigilant, because this is likely to be a manifestation of cataract.
The lens is in the middle of the eyeball, and as the lens ages excessively, it will deposit in the vitreous cavity, resulting in temporary vision recovery, which is not a good phenomenon. Although the visual acuity is better on the surface, if you don’t pay attention to it, eye inflammation, increased intraocular pressure, and even redness, swelling and pain may occur. Therefore, if a cataract patient’s vision becomes “good” for a short time, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination in time.
02. Sudden improvement of high blood pressure for many years may be due to heart problems
The sudden normalization of high blood pressure for many years should first rule out disease problems, such as myocardial infarction in the lower or anterior wall of the heart. Due to the decrease in cardiac output and myocardial contractility, there is a temporary drop in blood pressure.
Temporary hypotension caused by decreased cardiac output can cause hypoperfusion of vital organs such as the brain, kidneys, and the heart itself, which is more dangerous than high blood pressure.
In addition, patients with heart failure will also experience symptoms of temporary blood pressure drop. These manifestations are manifestations of aggravation of the disease, and circle friends must pay attention to it.

03. The white hair of the elderly suddenly turns black, which may be due to endocrine problems
The reasons for the sudden blackening of gray hair in the elderly can generally be divided into physiological factors and pathological factors.
1. Physiological factors
The sudden blackening of white hair may be due to the recent improvement in the quality of life, adequate nutritional intake, or the consumption of more melanin foods, such as black beans, black sesame, black rice, purple rice, purple potatoes, mulberries, etc. In addition, sufficient sleep and excellent mental state may cause the gray hair of the elderly to turn black. It is recommended that patients not worry too much, maintain a good attitude, and go to the hospital for regular physical examinations.
2. Pathological factors
Some elderly people need to be vigilant when their white hair turns black. It may be caused by tumor diseases or endocrine disorders. For example, space-occupying lesions of nodular pituitary gland and adrenal gland tumors may lead to abnormal endocrine in the elderly, so gray hair will turn black. symptoms. Among them, some patients are also accompanied by symptoms of increased appetite and mental agitation. It is recommended that patients go to the hospital in time to find out the cause of the disease, and choose an appropriate treatment method under the guidance of a doctor.
04. Sudden drop in blood sugar, be wary of pituitary tumors
Diabetic patients suddenly normalize their blood sugar, and pay attention to check for pituitary tumors. When a diabetic patient develops a pituitary tumor, the tumor compresses the pituitary gland, causing it to be damaged, endocrine function impaired, and secretion of adrenal cortex hormone, thyroid hormone, and growth hormone reduced, resulting in a drop in blood sugar and returning the originally high blood sugar to normal.
In addition to covering up the symptoms of diabetes, pituitary tumors can also cause accompanying symptoms such as fear of cold, loss of appetite, and general fatigue.
05. Sudden menstruation after menopause, beware of pathological changes
Menstruation after menopause may not be a good thing, it suggests the arrival of some diseases.
1. Malignant tumors of reproductive organs
The most common is endometrial cancer, accounting for about 80% of malignant lesions, more common in elderly women, a considerable number of patients with diabetes, hypertension or obesity. Most of the performance is continuous or intermittent irregular vaginal bleeding, and late bleeding may be mixed with rotten meat-like tissue. Others include cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, vulvar and vaginal tumors, etc.
2. Benign lesions of reproductive organs
Such as uterine fibroids, endometrial polyps, cervical polyps, etc., as well as some inflammatory diseases such as endometritis, senile vaginitis, etc. If there is a past medical history, continuous or intermittent irregular vaginal bleeding after menopause, if the ultrasound shows that the myoma grows rapidly and has a rich blood supply, the possibility of uterine sarcoma should be highly suspected.
Note: If you find menstruation again after menopause, you should pay attention to it. You should go to the hospital early to find out the reason, and do gynecological physical examination regularly every year.

06. People with poor appetite can suddenly eat, beware of hyperthyroidism
Some people usually have a bad appetite and don’t like to eat. If they suddenly become particularly able to eat and are hungry quickly, they should pay attention to the investigation of hyperthyroidism.
Hyperthyroidism is referred to as hyperthyroidism for short. The main reason is that the secretion of thyroxine in the patient’s body increases, which accelerates the catabolism of protein, sugar, and sugar, and increases the consumption of heat energy, resulting in hypermetabolism, resulting in accelerated gastrointestinal motility, easy hunger, and weight loss. Reduced weight, overeating, easy sweating, chest tightness and palpitations, etc.
In addition, various organ systems will also have obvious symptoms of excitement, such as insomnia and dreaminess at night, abnormal temper, trembling hands involuntarily, headache, exophthalmos, blood pressure will also increase, and some patients are accompanied by goiter .
07. The elderly suddenly grow “new teeth”, beware of tumors
After some old people lose their teeth, “new teeth” suddenly grow in their mouths, so pay special attention at this time!
If “new teeth” grow, there are generally three possibilities.
1. Gingival recession
The stumps of the teeth that had fallen out were slowly revealed and were mistaken for “new teeth”.
2. Impacted wisdom teeth
The impacted wisdom teeth lie in the shallow layer of the alveolar bone, and the alveolar bone shrinks in old age, exposing the impacted wisdom teeth, as if “new teeth” have grown.
3. It may be a tumor
If individual “new teeth” appear, it is often related to endocrine disorders, tumors or other physiological lesions.
Note: It is recommended that the elderly have regular physical examinations, especially oral examinations, which are conducive to protecting the oral health of the elderly.
08. Gastric ulcer suddenly healed, be wary of gastric bleeding
The most typical symptom of patients with gastric ulcer is pain in the right upper abdomen about half an hour after a meal, which is relieved about two hours later, and the pain recurs after the next meal. If this regular pain suddenly disappears, be alert for stomach bleeding.
Gastric bleeding can reduce vascular congestion and tissue edema at the ulcer site, and the protein in the blood decomposes to form a protective film on the ulcer surface, reducing the irritation to the gastric mucosa, so the pain disappears. When the epigastric pain suddenly disappears in patients with gastric ulcer, but accompanied by nausea, dizziness and other symptoms, attention should be paid.
09. Atrial fibrillation and palpitation suddenly feel better, it may just be tolerated
Atrial fibrillation is a very common arrhythmia. Common symptoms include palpitation, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and fatigue. Long-term atrial fibrillation will increase the burden on the heart, and eventually heart failure and even death will occur.
Patients with early-stage atrial fibrillation have obvious palpitations. When it progresses to persistent atrial fibrillation, the human body may tolerate the symptoms, feel “better” and neglect treatment. This is precisely the most dangerous group that needs regular treatment.
