Some of the old people say my body is bad. Actually this one "disease" is not it is a high blood pressure, high blood glucose or high blood fat, with the basic normal medicine blood pressure, blood sugar is also stable. In a Beijing hospital chief physician, professor wang jianye, these old people are healthy. "For example, if a high blood pressure in the elderly, but taking blood pressure medication on time, blood pressure can be control in 130/85 MMHG or 140/90 MMHG, he is healthy old man." The elderly should be right in the face of their own aging, don't use normal aging as disease.

Don't and young people than data

But this year at the age of 73. Working in an institution before retirement. Unit welfare is good, middle organization check-up, retired worker, is no exception. Zhu himself all carefully keep the annual check-up report, new medical check-up report comes out, he would take out the original medical check-up report, comparing data one by one. After comparing data became a medical for a period of time is the most important thing, data fluctuate more than 1, he will be a little bit nervous.

Just last month, zhu grandson graduated from university to work. Guys do a hired a medical before going to work, is very simple, but the physical examination report let zhu special not calm, because he found grandson health indicators are very good, was not an overweight. He felt every day exercise, healthy eating, "with what my health indicators will not be able to achieve the level of the young man?"

To this, said wang jianye, people's health to peak at the age of 25. After the age of 25 people began to aging, but slow aging process. 45 years old, began to accelerate the speed of aging, 50 s when a lot of people feel obvious to me; After 60 years of age, the speed of aging speed up again.

Aging is a natural rule, inevitable. Said wang jianye, old people is a lot of "disease" is not a disease, actually is old. Such as some people sleep or sleep less, may be less secretion of melatonin, sleep a short while awake; Some people can't eat, bad reason may be that the oral function degradation, the threaded or gastrointestinal degradation, digestion function abate...

"So far, scientists haven't find a way to aging." Said wang jianye, old people is to pursue health: even check index does not conform to the normal, but after the rational drug use control can be maintained in the normal level, through treatment can live like normal people, this is the healthy elderly.

Learn to live in peace with our symptoms

Lao du 70 - year - old, the body is good. The last two years, he always felt that frequent urination urgency, so he decided to hospital system to check again. Lao du said the urgency to urinate can also deal with during the day, but night urine more seriously affected his sleep. "In general, a night to five or six times in the evening." Lao du has been admitted to the hospital, just think about doing a surgery thoroughly solve the problem. Wait until he finished related inspection, urology doctor gives the final diagnosis is prostate hypertrophy caused the urination barrier. But doctors don't suggest that surgery, "said the doctor, no surgery, just use some medicine will improve."

The old man like Lao du not less. Wang jianye found in clinical, many older men appeared BPH will want to do surgery, patients with primarily personal feeling bad, "especially in the evening a night, a night to five or six times the bathroom, sleep well." Actually, prostate hypertrophy patients after oral drugs, can significantly improve symptoms. In fact this is where the organ aging, correct diagnosis before going to bed every day to eat a pill, after can to night night urination number two, will not affect the life. There are, of course, not all patients to take medicine can good, others require surgery, but must conform to the surgical indications. "As the growth of the age, most men will appear hyperplasia of prostate hypertrophy, minor symptoms do not affect life can make peace with the symptoms; if there is a serious problem, or to find a doctor to take the corresponding treatment. Don't put when aging disease, but not all the disease as aging, the key depends on the degree of."

Some "overweight" is reasonable

People into old age, organ function degradation, a lot of health reference index also have change. High blood pressure, for example, the standard of a person's blood pressure more than 120/80 MMHG is high blood pressure. But the elderly should be in accordance with the standards of young people? Said wang jianye, the old high pressure does not exceed 150 mm hg, low pressure does not exceed 90 mm hg, there is no problem. "Latest consensus, elderly people around the age of 80, high pressure does not exceed 160 mm hg, low pressure does not exceed 100 mm hg belong to a reasonable scope, with the blood pressure medication, would be counterproductive."

Wang jianye, a healthy old man check once a year; Have a disease or health risks of old people, under the guidance of a doctor, or three months examination once every six months, found that disease cure of as soon as possible, don't put the health as a burden.
