About me
Member of the Jining Branch of the Shandong Respiratory Society and the Jining Emergency Medicine Poisoning Society. Graduated from Jining Medical College, engaged in clinical work in internal medicine and emergency medicine for over 30 years, with rich experience in diagnosing and treating common and prevalent diseases in internal medicine and internal medicine emergencies. Has unique insights in the application of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Authored more than 10 articles published in national journals, including "Clinical Analysis of 50 Cases of Acute Episodes of Pulmonary Heart Disease Treated with Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine" and "Treatment of Coronary Heart Disease Blood Stagnation Type from the Perspective of Phlegm". Organized and participated in the "Clinical Study of Blood Lipid Clearing Treatment for Primary Hyperlipidemia" and was awarded the third prize for scientific research achievements in Jining City. Contributed to the editing of two works, including the "Clinical Diagnostic Techniques Manual".

Rheumatic Heart Disease Concept
Rheumatic heart disease is a type of organic heart disease caused by a hypersensitivity reaction in the body due to infection by Streptococcus pyogenes. This leads to pathological changes in the heart valves, including the tricuspid and mitral valves, resulting in stenosis or insufficiency which affects hemodynamics. This condition is known as rheumatic heart disease. Patients with rheumatic heart disease should actively seek treatment under the guidance of a doctor in the early stages to control the occurrence of complications.

Which is more dangerous, low blood pressure or high blood pressure?
Blood pressure is a crucial indicator for maintaining human life. Both low blood pressure and high blood pressure can pose significant risks to the body. High blood pressure can lead to arteriosclerosis, and prolonged high blood pressure can cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, with severe cases leading to cerebral ischemia and myocardial infarction. Low blood pressure affects the blood supply to vital organs and also brings negative factors to the body. Extremely low blood pressure can also endanger human life. Therefore, whether it is low blood pressure or high blood pressure, it should be correctly treated and improved under the guidance of a doctor to ensure the health of the body.

Symptoms of hypertension
Hypertension is a common and frequently occurring disease clinically. Mild hypertension often has no clinical symptoms and is usually detected during physical examinations when measuring blood pressure reveals an increase. In cases of severe hypertension, individuals with long-term high blood pressure may experience dizziness, a feeling of pressure in the head, and headaches. In serious cases, symptoms can include tinnitus and palpitations, requiring the use of effective antihypertensive medications for management. If patients with hypertension do not use medications to manage their condition, long-term high blood pressure can cause significant harm to the body, leading to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, hypertension-induced heart disease, and stroke. (Please use medications under the guidance of a doctor.)

Treatment of Chronic Heart Failure
Chronic heart failure is a common and frequent disease in clinical practice, often caused by severe myocardial damage, which leads to insufficient myocardial contraction and results in inadequate peripheral blood supply. The primary principles of treatment are to reduce the heart's burden, enhance its contractile strength, decrease the heart's workload, and reduce the returning blood volume to alleviate the heart's burden. Treatment involves using vasodilators to decrease cardiac resistance, positive inotropic drugs to strengthen cardiac contraction, and diuretics and a low-salt diet to reduce cardiac volume and returning blood volume. By employing these methods, the symptoms of chronic heart failure can be improved.
