Chest pain when breathing hard or lowering the head

When there is a problem with your body, you must seek medical attention in time, especially older people, who are more prone to heart disease. Heart disease has become one of the number one diseases threatening people. What are the symptoms of heart disease? Some people ask if chest pain when breathing hard or lowering the head indicates heart problems. This situation needs to be considered from many aspects. In addition to heart problems, it may be caused by pleurisy.

What causes pleurisy?

A common one is: the pleura is a layer of serous membrane that covers the surface of the lungs and the inner side of the thorax, which are called the visceral and parietal pleura respectively. The two layers of pleura form a gap called the pleural cavity. Under normal circumstances, the pleural cavity contains only a small amount of serous fluid, which acts as a lubricant, reduces friction between the two layers of pleura, and prevents adhesion. Pleurisy is an inflammation of the pleura, which can be caused by a variety of diseases such as infection (bacteria, viruses, fungi, ameba, lung fluke, etc.), tumors, allergies, chemicals and trauma. Among pleurisy caused by bacterial infection, tuberculous pleurisy is the most common type of pleurisy. This section focuses on tuberculous pleurisy.

Tuberculous exudative pleurisy usually has an acute onset, but it can also be slow. There are toxic symptoms, which may include fever or high fever, which may last for several days to weeks. Sometimes there are chills, sweating, weakness, and general discomfort.

Pleurisy is an inflammatory disease of the visceral and parietal pleura caused by infection, tumor, allergy, cardiovascular disease and chest trauma.

According to the nature of the lesions, it is divided into three types: tuberculous dry pleurisy, tuberculous exudative pleurisy and tuberculous empyema. Jiaomu Tingli Decoction is a compound preparation made in accordance with the principles of TCM "Four Diagnosis and Eight Principles, and Treatment based on Syndrome Differentiation". It selects more than a dozen precious Chinese herbal medicines and organically combines them to target the condition of the disease.

The tuberculosis bacteria in tuberculous pleurisy travel from the hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes of the primary syndrome to the pleural cavity through lymphatic vessels. Hematogenous dissemination or direct rupture of tuberculosis lesions adjacent to the pleura allows tuberculosis bacteria and their metabolites to enter the pleural cavity directly, causing pleural inflammation.

In fact, pleurisy is a personal problem. The most important thing is to avoid fatigue, avoid staying up late, quit smoking and drinking, eat a light diet and drink plenty of water. Pay attention to having a good lifestyle, which is very helpful for the improvement of the disease.
