Ten "minor illnesses" that must not be ignored

Are you embarrassed about drooling in your sleep? It's not as simple as being cute or unhygienic. It may be caused by a disorder in your neurological regulation. The regulation of saliva secretion is completely neural reflex. The commonly said “looking at the plum to quench thirst” is an example of conditioned reflex saliva secretion in daily life. In addition, drooling may also occur if the oral hygiene is not maintained properly. The temperature and humidity in the mouth are most suitable for the reproduction of bacteria. Inflammation and drooling while sleeping are also reminding you to be careful about periodontal disease and see a dentist.

2. Your feet may be a little swollen, don’t take it lightly

My feet have been a little swollen recently, and there is pain and itching. This seemingly common symptom should not be underestimated. It is very likely telling you "there is something wrong with your veins!" Swollen feet are often caused by venous thrombosis. If you see a doctor in time, there will be no problem. Otherwise, it is likely to cause edema of the lower limbs and even cause pulmonary embolism, affecting your life safety. Some small blood vessels in the veins are blocked, causing blood to flow poorly, resulting in swollen feet. So you can't take it lightly. If your feet are swollen and massage not only does not reduce the swelling but instead gets worse, you should pay close attention.

3. The culprit behind vision loss

You have been so busy at work recently that you feel like vomiting. You have been working overtime in front of the computer all night long, and your eyesight has obviously deteriorated. You have to be careful! If you often feel blurry eyes, dry eyes, and cannot see clearly, these are signs of weak liver function. If you press around the liver and feel a swollen feeling, there is most likely something wrong with the liver. In addition to seeking medical attention promptly, you should also pay attention to eye hygiene and avoid letting your eyes become too tired. Improper use of the eyes will affect the liver.

4. Scar changes, bad signs

If some chronic skin diseases on your body, such as keloids after burns or trauma, or chronic dermatitis, have suddenly undergone some inexplicable changes recently, you must be vigilant. If after treatment these lesions become larger, or ulcerated, hardened, thickened, pigmented, hyperkeratinized, or even bleed, you should be alert to the possibility of skin cancer. In addition, if some hard, raised lumps appear on the skin and do not go away, you must go to a specialist hospital for examination.

5. Watch out for your droopy eyelids

You have just reached the age of 30, the age of maturity and sexiness, but why are your eyelids becoming increasingly thicker and suddenly sagging? You should be worried and don't just think about going to the beauty salon, as it is an early symptom of many diseases. The precursor to the disease "myasthenia gravis" is the slow onset of ptosis of the eyelids. First one eye, then the other. It is lighter in the morning and heavier in the evening, with obvious fluctuations within a day. Another serious and terrifying condition is intracranial aneurysm. If your ptosis is unilateral and sudden, and your pupil is dilated, you should go to a neurology department immediately for emergency treatment. It sounds really scary.

6. Colored circles: a sign of blindness

When you look at a light, do you notice colorful circles appearing around it? Don't be surprised, this is not your special ability. It indicates that you may have angle-closure glaucoma. Angle-closure glaucoma is a common eye disease that can lead to blindness. Its early symptom is iridescence, which is the phenomenon of seeing colored circles. The colored circle appears smaller when viewed up close and larger when viewed from a distance, with purple being inside and red being outside.

7. Hidden dangers of “foodies”

Suddenly the appetite increases, but the weight decreases as the food intake increases, and the amount of urine increases significantly as the amount of water consumed increases. After going to the hospital for a check-up, I found that the "increased appetite" was actually caused by diabetes. In addition, hypercortisolism, obesity-related reproductive impotence, etc. can also cause you to have a big appetite and a rapid increase in food intake. Therefore, if you have an unusually good appetite recently, it is better to go to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up as soon as possible.

8. Stomachache or heart disease?

You have suffered from stomach problems before, so this time, you actually mistook the precursor of a heart disease for stomach pain! You know, this is an important alarm. Unlike common stomach problems, stomach pain caused by heart disease rarely causes colic and severe pain, and tenderness is not common either. It is just a feeling of stuffiness and fullness, sometimes accompanied by dull pain, a burning sensation, and nausea.

9. The quietly changing beauty mole

When our bodies are changing, there are always various signs, as long as you know how to take care of yourself. When a mole becomes malignant and becomes a malignant melanoma, there are some warning signs:

1. The mole has grown rapidly in recent period;

2. The surface of the mole becomes eroded or even ulcerated, and there is an itchy feeling;

3. The area around the mole was originally flat and normal, but recently small black spots, satellite nodule-like tissues have appeared, or nearby lymph nodes have become enlarged and black.

10. Don’t let your palms get wet with sweat

Sweating palms does not mean that you are in good health, especially for young people. If a woman's palms feel hot, she is likely to have chronic pyelonephritis. In the early stages, there is usually persistent or intermittent heat in the palms, sweating, or fever all over the body.
