Treatment of cardiosclerosis with folk remedies and methods
Cardiosclerosis is a condition in which connective scar tissue develops in the cardiac muscle. This occurs with atherosclerosis, myocarditis, after myocardial infarction.
There are 2 forms of cardiosclerosis - myocarditis and atherosclerotic. In this chapter, we will mainly talk about the atherosclerotic form of cardiosclerosis.
In the development of atherosclerotic cardiosclerosis, the compensatory phenomena occurring in the cardiac muscle are very important. If, in the presence of a common atherosclerotic process in the body, compensation coronary artery restructuring is not enough, then the connective and fibrous tissue in the myocardium multiply to a greater extent. Conversely, with good development of collateral( additional) circulation, the muscle tissue of the heart does not undergo cicatricial degeneration, and its mass only increases.
Clinic of cardiosclerosis consists of the following syndromes:
rhythm and conduction disorder;
violation of the contractility of the heart;
cardiovascular failure.
Depending on which of these syndromes prevails, and the corresponding symptomatology of the disease develops.
Sometimes on the first place are the phenomena of conduction disorders, and the patient complains of a heartbeat, an increase in the rhythm of heartbeats, ekstrosistolii( transmission of a cardiac stroke), tachycardia.
In other cases, the phenomena of cardiovascular insufficiency - edema, dyspnea, pain in the heart, etc., are the first to occur.
The disease has a progressive course with periods of relative improvement that can last sometimes for several years. The general condition of the patient depends on the progression of the underlying disease( atherosclerosis, rheumatism, heart attack, from the frequency of rheumatic attacks) and lifestyle.
Treatment of cardiosclerosis should be aimed primarily at treating the underlying disease, mitigating the effects of coronary insufficiency, eliminating rhythm disturbances and conduction of the heart.
A patient with cardiosclerosis should avoid heavy physical exertion and stressful situations. But lack of exercise and a sedentary lifestyle with cardiosclerosis are also contraindicated. Therefore, the patient should choose the golden mean. Physiotherapy, spa treatment under the supervision of specialists, as well as moderate physical activity will always bring help with this disease.
