Patient's question:
Doctor, my neighbor's aunt has had a heart attack for over a year. She went to the hospital for treatment for a while, but it didn't get better. Instead, it seems to be getting worse. We are all very worried. It has been treated for so long and still hasn't improved. Doctor, is heart attack very difficult to treat?Doctor's answer:
Your neighbor's aunt has had a myocardial infarction for over a year. After treatment, her symptoms have become increasingly severe. This situation is likely due to a larger area of blockage. In patients with myocardial infarction, it is caused by a thrombus forming again in the coronary vessels, which then blocks the blood vessels, leading to myocardial ischemia and edema, as well as the recurrence of myocardial pus formation. This is generally irreversible, making treatment particularly difficult. Early and prompt treatment tends to yield better results. If the blockage area is large, surgical treatment is usually required.
