What are the symptoms of asthenia?

Speaking of asthenia, many people don't know what kind of disease it is. Since it contains the word "labor", this disease must be caused by excessive fatigue. Now that the pace of life and work is accelerating, more and more people have to stay up late to catch up on work. Doing this for a long time will cause some damage to their health. When suffering from asthenia, symptoms such as pale face, gradual weight loss, dizziness, loss of appetite, etc. should be taken to prevent asthenia in daily life.

Symptoms of asthenia

1. Symptoms include fatigue, palpitations, shortness of breath, haggard face, spontaneous sweating, night sweats, fever in the five parts of the body, chills, cold limbs, weak pulse, etc. If the disease lasts for a long time and the patient is not cured, the symptoms may gradually become more severe.

2. The patient has pathogenic factors that cause asthenia and a long medical history.

3. Exclude similar diseases and symptoms. Emphasis should be placed on excluding deficiency syndrome types in tuberculosis and other diseases.

Guidance:

There are many reasons that can lead to asthenia. The "Lixu Yuanjian·There are Six Causes of Deficiency Syndrome" states that "there are congenital causes, acquired causes, causes after smallpox and illness, causes caused by external factors, causes caused by circumstances, and causes caused by medicine." This is a relatively comprehensive summary of the causes of deficiency and fatigue.

Various causes of disease act on the human body, causing deficiency of Qi, blood, Yin and Yang in the internal organs, which will lead to deficiency of Qi, blood, Yin and Yang over time. Combined with clinical observations, the causes and pathogenesis of asthenia mainly include the following five aspects: weak constitution; excessive fatigue; improper diet; serious and long-term illness; misdiagnosis and lack of treatment.

Prevention of asthenia:

1. Prevent external evil, avoid wind and cold, adapt to cold and temperature, and try to reduce colds and flu.

2. Adjust your diet, curb your desires, and use dietary therapy according to your physical condition and the condition of your spleen and stomach. Those with yin deficiency and blood deficiency should use clearing tonics, while those with yang deficiency and qi deficiency should use warm tonics. Eat less or avoid spicy, greasy, raw, cold, and unclean foods, and quit smoking and drinking.

3. Balance work and rest, and be careful in your daily life. Live a regular life, combine movement and rest, balance work and rest, participate in sports activities, and enhance your ability to resist evil.

4. Relax your emotions, worry less, and stay optimistic and stable. Be moderate in sexual intercourse to avoid wasting your essence.

5. Thoroughly treat various chronic diseases to prevent damage to the internal organs, qi and blood, and the onset of exhaustion and weakness.

Nursing of asthenia:

Withering care plays an important role in the improvement and cure of asthenia.

1. Avoid wind and cold, and adapt to cold and warm weather.

During the process of asthenia, being affected by external pathogens and damaging the vital energy are usually the important reasons for the worsening of the disease. Since patients with asthenia have insufficient vital energy and weak defense against external pathogens, they are prone to invasion by external pathogens. Therefore, they should pay attention to temperature, avoid wind and cold, adapt to cold and heat, and try to reduce colds and flu.

2. Adjust your diet and quit smoking and drinking.

The human body's qi and blood depend entirely on food and water for survival, so regulating diet is crucial to treating fatigue. The general principle is to be nutritious, easy to digest, and not harmful to the spleen and stomach. You should eat less spicy, greasy, raw, cold and unsalted food or even avoid it. Smoking and drinking are detrimental to one's health and should be stopped.

3. Be careful in your daily life and balance work and rest.

Your daily life should be regular, combining movement and rest, and balancing work and rest. Depending on your physical condition, you can participate in activities such as outdoor walking, qigong exercises, and tai chi. For patients with mild illness, work and study can be arranged appropriately. Be moderate in sexual intercourse.

4. Relax your mood and reduce worries.

Excessive emotional stimulation can easily lead to the depletion of Qi and Yin, which is one of the important reasons for the aggravation of the disease. Keeping emotions stable, comfortable and optimistic is beneficial to the recovery of asthenia.
