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. How should angina be diagnosed and treated?Doctor's answer:
For the situation of your family members, it is recommended that your family members choose a regular hospital to undergo additional examinations such as an electrocardiogram and echocardiography to further clarify the cause and provide symptomatic treatment. For patients with myocardial ischemia, initial treatment should involve medication, such as antiplatelet drugs, β-blockers, and calcium channel blockers. If necessary, interventional procedures and surgical interventions may be employed. Additionally, patients with myocardial ischemia should adopt a regular lifestyle, maintain early rising and early sleeping habits, avoid overtime work, and keep a cheerful mood to prevent emotional tension and excessive excitement.
