Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. I wonder if coronary heart disease can easily lead to sudden death?Doctor's answer:
Coronary heart disease is the atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries of the heart, leading to insufficient blood supply to the heart. If the condition is severe, it may cause a myocardial infarction, which can be fatal. Therefore, people with coronary heart disease should pay attention to their diet, eat light, avoid excessively greasy foods to lower blood lipids, and regularly check in with the hospital for follow-up. They can take oral TCM medicine or Xuesaitong to prevent it, actively participate in physical exercise to regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
