The harm of smoking to men's heart will shock you!

If you have a patient with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, you must know that doctors will tell patients not to smoke. It can be seen that bad habits such as smoking will indeed bring harm to the heart. However, many men still don't believe it. Today, the editor will analyze in detail the harm of smoking to the heart.

1. Harm to the kidneys and cause increased blood pressure

Nicotine in cigarettes can increase the secretion of adrenaline and norepinephrine, leading to faster heart rate and increased cardiac output, which increases the blood flow in the heart vessels. At the same time, it is more likely to cause spasms and narrowing of small blood vessels in the limbs, causing increased blood pressure.

2. Trigger angina

When carbon monoxide in smoke enters the blood, it will reduce the oxygen supply to the heart and other parts of the body, making it more likely to cause myocardial ischemia and hypoxia, triggering angina and even myocardial infarction;

3. Damage to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system

Smoking causes platelet aggregation in the blood, reduces platelet life, and increases blood pressure and viscosity. These reactions can cause damage to the cardiovascular system.

4. Relapse of disease

Patients who have already had angina or myocardial infarction and continue to smoke increase their recurrence rate.

hint:

Smoking is a risk factor for the body, which can cause atherosclerosis, angina, myocardial infarction, thrombosis, etc., seriously endangering the health of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, for people who have already suffered from the above diseases, whether they are taking medication or have undergone heart stent or coronary bypass surgery, they should actively quit smoking.
