What causes vertebral artery insufficiency and how to use medications

Vertebrobasilar insufficiency is a common clinical condition.

The occurrence of this condition is mostly due to arteriosclerosis or cervical disc herniation, hypertrophy compresses the blood vessels, affects blood circulation, and eventually leads to insufficient blood supply to the vertebrobasilar artery.

It mostly occurs in people who work long hours at their desks, such as teachers, etc.

Due to long-term desk work and little exercise, it causes cerebral vascular elasticity loss, cervical spine disease, etc., and correspondingly causes insufficient blood supply to the vertebrobasilar artery.

In the past, most of these patients were middle-aged and elderly people over 50 years old, but now with the introduction of computers into thousands of households, many young people have excessive intake of high fat and high protein due to long-term desk work, unscientific diet, and excessive intake of high fat and high protein

Vertebrobasilar insufficiency" disease patients are getting younger. In all age groups, these patients are more likely to be female.

Many friends who suffer from vertebrobasilar insufficiency mistakenly think that there is something wrong with their cardiovascular or nervous system, and often go to the cardiovascular department or neurology department to see a doctor. Actually, when you experience frequent dizziness,

If you have symptoms such as headaches, you should go to the acupuncture department.

For the disease of vertebrobasilar insufficiency, many Chinese and Western medicines that can dilate blood vessels seem to be symptomatic, but in fact they have little effect, and there are some ***.

The traditional acupuncture in China can improve blood circulation in the local concentration point, and at the same time adjust the nervous and endocrine functions, so that the overall body function of the person is significantly improved.

To prevent vertebrobasilar artery insufficiency, we should pay more attention to our diet, control the excessive intake of high fat and protein, and do moderate exercise regularly.

Those who work at the desk for a long time, every hour or two of work, should raise their heads to do head exercises, neck exercises, stretch their hands and feet, I personally recommend that you can eat a little honey or pollen every day, and do head and neck yoga for a while every day, the effect is very good!

Onset of illness for nearly a year.

After examination, no problems were found in brain CT, cervical spine CT, and brain MRI, and there was no problem with blood routine and thyroid function, and cervical Doppler showed that the right vertebral artery was insufficient and the resistance was elevated, not vertebral artery stenosis.

I often feel dizzy (non-vertigo) accompanied by fatigue, fear of falling backwards, soreness in the cervical spine, shoulders and back, and I can feel that the position of head ischemia changes every once in a while, but it is always on the left side, and there is a pinprick sensation when I tap my head with the tip of my finger, and my face is sallow when the symptoms are severe. There is slight tinnitus, fear of sharp sounds, fear of light, slight bending and weakness of the left ring finger. These symptoms are especially pronounced when you don't get enough sleep.

So that the doctor can understand the condition and give diagnosis and treatment suggestions.

First of all, remove risk factors, such as high blood pressure, quit smoking, prohibit excessive alcohol consumption, coronary heart disease, arrhythmias, heart failure, etc. These risk factors are all risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, so they should also be paid attention to when experiencing cerebral ischemia. Tobacco and alcohol are harmful substances to the body, especially tobacco and alcohol, you can drink less than 1 tael a week; High blood pressure is caused by narrowing of blood vessels and many other reasons, and it is easy to cause blood vessel blockage; Coronary heart disease, arrhythmia, heart failure, etc. are also follow-up symptoms of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, so they should also be within the range of controllability and **.

Vertebrobasilar insufficiency is a rough diagnosis that requires further investigation, preferably a head and neck CTA to see if there is significant narrowing of the blood vessels, or if there is a problem with the cervical spine that compresses the vertebral artery and causes insufficient blood supply.
