China's traditional Chinese medicine to 

    Early spring season, the weather is hot and cold, Beijing hospital cardiovascular patients has said. Director of the people's liberation army general hospital first affiliated hospital of elderly heart yun-feng xia said that each year when the season changes, especially in the early spring season, the elderly will be increased cardiovascular disease recurrence. Of elderly patients admitted in the winter every year, more than 60% of cardiovascular disease.
 
    Yun-feng xia explained, all the year round can cardiovascular disease relapse, but spring is eventful, especially 3 ~ 4 month, is a peak of cardiovascular disease recurrence. It is though this period has been spring, but the temperature was very low, and the changeable weather, hot and cold, easy to cause vasospasm, especially the elderly, vascular elasticity bad, most associated with vascular sclerosis and blood vessel stenosis, a sudden change in the climate often stimulate vasospasm caused by myocardial blood flow decreased, serious can cause angina and myocardial infarction. Second, people generally indoor activities in winter, less outdoor activities, as the climate warmed up, people's outdoor activities increased, myocardial oxygen consumption also will increase. Some old people, especially people with cardiovascular disease, heart of stationary phase to the load of the activity don't adapt to change, add some people of activity to grasp well, activity is too big, cause angina pectoris or myocardial infarction. Three is a person into old age, immune function decline, along with the increase in outdoor activities, chances of cold, bacterial infection, has said, prone to cold, fever, respiratory system diseases such as lung infection, the disease can cause or aggravate cardiovascular disease.
 
    Yun-feng xia said, folk have "spring cover autumn frost, to the old don't get sick", this makes sense. Spring is warm, windy, changes in temperature change is big, old people don't too early to take off the cotton-padded clothes, pay attention to keep warm, more "wu wu". The elderly outdoor activities to go step by step, select the appropriate activities, such as walking, tai chi, etc. Not to exercise too much, each time not too long, generally every time with 30 minutes advisable, don't be too tired. Patients with high blood pressure, coronary heart disease to take medicine on time, pay attention to adjust the way of life, to light, low fat diet, quit smoking, alcohol, do not eat excitant food, assure enough sleep, control mood swings. Activities to carry out first aid kit, it is better for family members. Patients with coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular disease of elderly once appear unstable condition or paroxysmal angina, no matter sooner or later, all want to go to hospital in time, don't drag.
