A doctor told how to avoid ending up in a hospital bed due to heart problems.

Director of the Scientific and Practical Center for Remote Medicine at Samara State Medical University, cardiologist Andrey Garanin shared a comment on this topic.

Spring and summer are busy times for anyone with a dacha. But seasonal work on your property can be dangerous, RT reports.

After a long winter break in physical activity, you need to gradually get used to the loads. You can't suddenly overload your body with work.

For example, energy consumption when working with a shovel is higher than when working out in a gym or running fast. If your health is poor, you may feel unwell after 2-3 minutes.

Garanin advised to start working on the plot no earlier than 1.5-2 hours after eating and taking medications. This will help to avoid a "dacha" heart attack.

In addition, it is necessary to monitor blood pressure indicators. If fatigue or shortness of breath appears during work, then this is a reason to rest.

Also, you should not drink alcohol before working in the garden: there is no safe dose.

The head-down load is dangerous for people with obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol and cardiovascular disease.

Earlier, a neurologist listed the symptoms of a pre-stroke condition.
