People who don't like to wear high -necked clothes may have such a problem with your neck!

Some people like to wear high -necked clothes, and some people don't like it.

But there may be a type of person that may not be suitable for wearing (not short neck).

If you are uncomfortable as soon as you wear high -necked clothes, dizziness, eyes are dark, breathless, and your heart is pounding, as if you are choked with your throat ...

Cable arterial sinus syndrome is commonly known as "collar disease".

When these people wear high -necked sweaters, sweaters will compress the carotid sinus of the human body "blood pressure regulator".

If the human blood pressure regulation system is compared to a unit, then the carotid sinus is the front line "sentinel".

The cervical sinus is equipped with a pressure sensor, which is very sensitive to the changes in blood pressure. If there is a slight motion, the central nervous system is reported quickly, and the blood pressure, heart rate and heart output volume are adjusted [2].

If the "sentinel" is too vigilant, it is easy to be disturbed by the outside world and transmits error messages. For example, when wearing a high -necked sweater, you will suddenly dizzy, fatigue, tinnitus and even syncope.

The severity of this disease is different, and the consequences are different:

Mild patients often feel dizziness, pale face, cold sweat, and mental burnout. In most cases, there is no need to see a doctor, just

Severe patients will suddenly syncope, half -bodies or whole body convulsions, cardiac arrest, rescue may endanger life in a timely manner [3].

The duration of cervical sinus syndrome is usually shorter. Generally, a few seconds, it is relieved after stopping compression.

However, if the compression is too strong or too long, the blood pressure drops sharply, which may lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain and decreased heart rate. It will appear in coma and lose consciousness;

In case of this situation, you can use the following method to first aid:

If you are in this case, you are yourself, when you have preliminary symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, sweating, etc., you need to quickly lie on your back, unbutton the collar, raise your legs, and let more blood flow back to the heart.

If others are fainted by the cervical sinus, you need to lie on your back to unlock the collar and keep the surrounding environment ventilation. Then judge whether he has consciousness. If he has no response, he needs to call 120 immediately, and under the guidance of the professionals, and wait for the rescue personnel to come.

If you have trouble in this regard, the best solution is: Don't wear high -necked clothes. If you really want to wear it, you must ensure that you are loose enough. Do not tie tie and scarf too tightly. Do not suddenly turn your head or change your position quickly.

The high -necked sweater is only one of the induced factors of "carotid sinus syndrome". In essence, as long as the cervical sinus is oppressed, the corresponding symptoms will be caused.

Shooting, massaging, kissing the neck, the neck suddenly rotated or looked up, stood up, and other rapid position changes. For those with "carotid syndrome", they could stimulate the cervical sinus.

There were also reports of death on the "strawberry" on the neck of the couple.

Do not imitate film and television dramas, and use your hands to split hard on the neck of another person, because the other party may really faint immediately. If you do n’t have a good grasp, it will cause permanent injury and risk of sudden death.

Rumor:

According to the Internet, arterial sinus massage has the magical effect of sleeping, and some people have a sudden imagination "to attack poison with poison" and use cervical artery massage to treat hypertension. These are all inseparable and harmless but not good!
