Patient's question:
What should I do if I have a heart attack? After getting older, I feel short of breath even after walking a few steps, can't straighten my back, have insufficient qi and blood, and the heart's blood supply isn't very good. I often feel chest tightness and shortness of breath, worrying that I might have had a heart attack.Doctor's answer:
For patients with psychological blockages, treatment should follow the principle of adhering to salvaging dying myocardium, enlarging infarct area, and protecting cardiac function. For patients with myocardial infarction, treatment primarily involves reinfusion therapy, clopidogrel, aspirin, and antiarrhythmic drugs, among others. If the patient is in a stable condition, appropriate massage can be used to alleviate symptoms. It is important to maintain emotional stability and avoid excessive emotional fluctuations.
