August 25 – VOICE. A person can reduce the risk of atrial fibrillation and stroke by maintaining physical fitness
Not always life-threatening strokes can occur due to poor dietary and lifestyle choices. For example, one disease that occurs in more than 40 million people in the world can increase the risk of this serious illness by 5 times. This was reported by the publication “MedicForum” with reference to the words of the neurologist Alexandra Alyokhina.
As it turned out, the risk of stroke and early death increases in people with atrial fibrillation (atrial fibrillation). This disease is characterized by an irregular and often abnormally high heart rate. The normal heart rate of a person in a state of rest is from 60 to 100 beats per minute. The doctor explained that atrial fibrillation itself is not a life-threatening disease, but it can provoke the formation of blood clots in the heart. If they get into the brain, then a serious emergency medical treatment will be required. However, the chances of avoiding this increase with proper treatment.
In order to get it done on time, you need to be aware of the warning signs of atrial fibrillation. The neurologist advised to pay attention to health if a person is worried about dizziness, shortness of breath, fatigue and heart palpitations.
True, atrial fibrillation is not always manifested by noticeable symptoms. A person may not even be aware that he has an irregular heart rhythm. Keeping fit can help prevent atrial fibrillation and stroke. This was shown by a new study, which was conducted for more than 11 years.
