One, gobble sad hurt stomach
Many old people from the young have developed the habit of eating fast, three mouth two mouth a bowl of rice ‘braise’ finished. But as you get older, you need to slow down. The digestive function and swallowing function of the elderly is not as good as that of the young, and eating too fast will be adverse to digestion, and easy to choke, causing damage to the esophagus. Second, it is easy to bring too much burden to the heart. Beware of people: patients with digestive system and heart disease.
Reading newspapers, playing cards should not sit for long
Sedentary will affect the digestive function, so that gastrointestinal motility is slow, long easy to induce indigestion, constipation and even hemorrhoids. Some old people are used to playing cards and playing chess outdoors. If the temperature is low and they sit for a long time, it will lead to poor blood circulation in lower extremities and induce or aggravate degenerative diseases of knee joints. Therefore, the old people play cards, read books, watch TV, should stand up every forty to fifty minutes walk for a while, the activity of the knee joint and waist abdomen. Alert people: indigestion, arthritis patients.
Three, get up too fierce injury blood vessels
Older people who get out of bed too quickly may have elevated blood pressure, temporary syncope or even cerebral hemorrhage. Bai Yulong, deputy director of the department of Rehabilitation Medicine at Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, pointed out that the elderly must comply with the principle of “slower than three minutes, not to grab a second”. After waking up, they can lie still for three minutes, slowly get up and sit on the bed for three minutes, put their feet down and sit on the bedside for three minutes, and then get out of bed to move slowly. Alert people: hypertension, history of cerebral hemorrhage.
Four, force defecate
Want to avoid a lot of cerebral haemorrhage, acute heart attack patient, it is to come on in lavatory, its inducement factor is force defecate. When old people exert oneself to defecate, can cause abdominal pressure, blood pressure to rise, increase the risk of cerebral hemorrhage, the burden of the heart will also increase at this time, easy to induce myocardial infarction. If you have symptoms of constipation, eat more fruits and vegetables rich in fiber, make a habit of defecating on time, or use medicine to defecate, do not overexert. Alert people: patients with coronary heart disease and hypertension.
Five, the blood pressure rises along with the voice
Every time the old man’s voice is raised, it is a stimulus to the body. At this time, it will be accompanied by a rapid heartbeat and high blood pressure. Blood pressure fluctuates more in situations where you are arguing or arguing with others. The old man usually tries to speak softly and seldom argue with others. If it’s poetry or singing, it’s ok to speak louder. Alert people: patients with hypertension.
Six, stand wear pants most easy fall down
Old people have poor balance ability and wear pants standing up is easy to have an accident and cause fracture. Therefore, it is better for the elderly to sit on the bed or lean against a fixed position while wearing pants. In addition, the elderly get up, go to the toilet, take a shower, are prone to fall “high-risk period”, must hand fixed, slow action. Beware of crowds: all old people.
Better slow than quick up the stairs
As you age, not only do your musculoskeletal muscles deteriorate, so does your nervous system. On a 20cm step, for example, an elderly person’s foot may not be lifted that high, but the nervous system, which directs movement, “lags” behind, making it more likely that a fall will occur. Old people take the stairs, the best side body, holding the handrail, rather slow not fast, such as a foot completely after the foot to step another foot. Alert people: patients with osteoporosis and nervous system diseases.
Eight, stoop can not be heroic
The Mayo Clinic warns that all excessive bending is not appropriate for the elderly. The balance ability of the elderly is poor, the joints are hard, and the protection of the joints becomes less due to muscle atrophy. Large bending is easy to cause drag injuries and joint dislocation. If you bend too fast and too hard, it will lead to drastic changes in blood pressure in the brain, causing cerebral hemorrhage. When bending down to pick up things, should also slow down as far as possible, hold a chair or other fixed things, squat down to pick up again. Alert people: patients with hypertension, hypotension, cerebrovascular disease, arthritis.
Lift heavy things according to one’s strength
Older people have weakened muscle and bone function, making them vulnerable to muscle damage or fractures if they carry heavy loads. So, not only to reduce weight in life, such as lifting heavy objects, moving furniture, exercise also want to be able to act, with dumbbells, pull the appropriate intensity. Especially in osteoporosis patients, carrying heavy weights or lifting heavy dumbbells, easy to lead to fracture. Beware of people: osteoporosis patients.
Ten, suddenly back alert faint
In the elderly, the carotid arteries can become narrowed and the walls become brittle. A sudden turn of the neck can compress the carotid artery, affecting the blood supply to the brain and leading to fainting. It’s also easy to fall if you don’t balance your neck properly. The old man moves neck, can move head forward hind left and right sides four directions sway, but amplitude shoulds not be too big. The old man usually also taboo back, such as walking on the road, hear someone in the back to call their own, must slowly back. Alert people: patients with cerebrovascular disease, poor balance ability.
