The most common diseases that a cardiologist treats are arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease, and myocardial infarction.
More than 50% of elderly and senile people suffer from manifestations of hypertension. Increased blood pressure is very dangerous, it has a negative effect on the functioning of the body.
Coronary heart disease (CHD). The cause of the occurrence is a mismatch between oxygen, which is delivered by the blood, and the need of the heart muscle for it. The causes of ischemia may be different. Quite often this happens due to the development of atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries. Excessive amounts of cholesterol in the bloodstream can be deposited on the walls of blood vessels in the form of atherosclerotic "plaques", reducing the lumen of blood vessels. That is why, at the age of 35-40 years and older, it is necessary to undergo studies to determine the level of cholesterol in the blood at least twice a year.
If CHD is not recognized and treated in time, a myocardial infarction may occur. In this case, necrosis of the area of the heart muscle occurs. In its place, a connective tissue scar is formed. This section of the heart muscle does not contract, which means it does not participate in the work of the heart. This reduces the efficiency of the heart. Acute myocardial infarction causes death in both elderly and young people. The disease manifests itself with acute pain in the heart area, which can be given to the left arm, shoulder.
Such symptoms cannot be ignored, if any of them occur, you need to make an appointment with a cardiologist as soon as possible.
