<p>When talking about &#8220;heart disease&#8221; especially in the elderly, many people mostly think of its severity that often leads to death. In the meantime, doctor specialising in cardiovascular disease at Phayathai Nawamin Hospital has said that heart disease can be prevented and treated in time if we pay attention to the physical examination.</p>

<h2><span style="color: #4a7b8c">Chest pain and Heart disease</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Chest pain like an object pressing on the left near to the center. The pain may spread to the arm. These indicative symptoms usually happened but not 100 percent approved. Because some people have a similar pain with flatulence or xiphoid process but later considered as a heart disease instead. Therefore, the chest pain cannot provide an indication of heart disease. At the same time, other symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, and palpation are required for an accurate diagnosis. Including, hypertension and diabetes.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><span style="color: #4a7b8c">Hypertension and Heart disease</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>People usually think that hypertension is harmless. In fact, it is a cause of many serious diseases. For instance, coronary stenosis, myocardial ischemia, heart enlarged and arrhythmia. And latterly, leading to arterial occlusive disease or acute heart failure. For that reason, the doctor added that the physical examination is required whether having hypertension or not.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><span style="color: #4a7b8c">Why is physical examination important?</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Because not all symptoms are expressed, some people have high blood pressure but no symptoms showing until having headache and pressure reaches 200 may cause a stroke. That means receiving annual physical examination helps us being aware of the risks. Accordingly, how quick the disease is found how less possibility of having the disease will be. In case if patients having a heart disease already. The health check will help finding a stage of symptoms faster. And a treatment will be easier than wait until reaching a further stage.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8220;Some elderly people have dizziness and think of Ménière’s disease, sleep deficiency, but after a detection found that there are problems with the heart function. Or some people come with flatulence, or indigestion from that we can see that some of the symptoms are not clear to define. And the diagnosis makes them noticeable. &#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2><span style="color: #4a7b8c">Bypass surgery</span></h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>A bypass is a big surgery causing blood loss. For elderly patients, there is no limitation to receive a procedure. However, there are many alternative ways of operation such as balloon heart valve surgery, or cardiac catheterization. However, in case of bypass surgery, a preparation before surgery is required. For example, receiving a blood test, pressure measuring, fat or sugar checking including receiving a  physician consulting to help patients before surgery. Due to after process atelectasis and pneumonia may occur. Patients will have a wound pain causes breathing difficulty. And in this case, physiotherapists will train patient with lung control  before surgery to reduce a chance of complication. However at the same time, a medical team &#8216;s preparation is required to provide a success for the operation.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In conclusion, an information sending can provide good and bad influences, if it is accurate then people will definitely be aware of their healths and conditions. On the contrary, the news sent to people with a wrong interpretation causing a disadvantage of it. Accordingly, nowadays patients come to receive a remedy when it is too late ;some people are just 30-40 years old but have a heart disease, which this can be prevented and cured before reaching a severity indeed.</p>
