What symptom does rheumatic heart disease have after operation

summary

Rheumatic heart disease is a part of the pathological reaction caused by group A and B hemolytic streptococcus infection. When our heart valve is not fully closed, the first problem it brings is partial blood reflux. The direct consequence of this kind of reflux is that it increases the pressure of the heart, reduces the volume of blood pumped, and causes partial loss of gas exchange in the circulation. Therefore, patients with rheumatic heart disease often feel difficult to breathe. Well, in order to eliminate the pain, most people choose to have surgery, and every surgery is accompanied by many precautions and postoperative symptoms. Now let me briefly talk about the symptoms of rheumatic heart disease after surgery

What symptom does rheumatic heart disease have after operation

First of all, rheumatic heart disease is often multiple heart valves or calcification, or fibrosis, which will cause valve stenosis or insufficiency or both, resulting in cardiac pumping dysfunction. To put it more popularly, it means that if the blood can't get in and out, it will lead to heart and lung failure in the long run. Even when a patient is running, taking a shower, catching a cold or getting worse with pneumonia, sudden death may occur.

In the early stage, the main manifestations of rheumatic heart disease patients are fever, palpitation, suffocation, swelling and pain of large joints and other symptoms of wind, dampness and heat. At this time, there is no need for surgical treatment. It can vary from person to person. Some conservative medical treatment, such as anti rheumatism, cardiotonic and diuretic treatment, is mainly to enhance the heart function or reduce the burden of the heart.

After the operation, most of the patients are tired or have more psychological activities, and it takes 3-6 months for them to return to normal after the operation of rheumatic heart disease. During this period, patients must pay more attention to rest and take medicine according to the doctor's advice to prevent thrombosis

matters needing attention

When the condition has developed to the extent of the need for rheumatic heart disease surgery, there must be no fear of going to the hospital, which is very dangerous. Because of the consequences of delayed surgery, it is very likely to lead to sudden death.
