How does syphilitic heart disease check out?
summary
Syphilitic heart disease means that Treponema pallidum enters the outer layer of the aorta, causing inflammation of the aorta and producing tumors of the aorta. Now syphilis is rarely seen in China, and Mei toxic heart disease is also rarely seen. Let's talk about how to detect syphilitic heart disease.
How does syphilitic heart disease check out?
First, syphilitic heart disease is caused by the fact that the patient is not completely cured during the treatment of syphilis. Often, the patient may get sick within 10 to 20 years after getting syphilis. However, this kind of disease is rarely seen at present, because there are fewer and fewer people with syphilis, and now people have syphilis, if they find it in time for treatment, In an age when penicillin is no longer as scarce as it used to be, it will soon be cured.
Second, patients with syphilitic heart disease will not notice anything at the beginning, and there is no special situation in the early stage of the disease, but in the late stage, because the patient is not treated in time, the patient is likely to have angina pectoris and heart function problems, So people with a history of syphilis should always pay attention to their physical condition, once found, timely treatment is the king.
Third, if the patient is suffering from simple syphilitic aortoarteritis, there will be an uncomfortable feeling in the patient's chest position, as if it is blocked, or there will be pain directly. If the patient is suffering from syphilitic aortic insufficiency, the patient may have angina pectoris and eventually even heart failure, As for the syphilitic aortic stenosis or blockage, patients have a great chance of angina at night, so we should pay attention at any time.
matters needing attention
In the early stage, simple syphilis aortoarteritis in the discovery of good treatment, generally will not have a big problem, most of the prognosis has caused aortic insufficiency, prognosis will be with the size of the heart, the number of reflux, and so on to determine the situation, no heart failure can generally maintain five or six years of time, there is no special situation.
