Statistics show that heart disease among young people in India is increasing day by day.
On May 24, Bandaru Vishnu, son of federal minister and BJP member Bandaru Dattariya, died of a heart attack. He was only 21 years old and was studying MBBS in Hyderabad.
He reportedly complained of chest pains after dinner late night and when his family rushed him to the hospital, doctors said he was dead.
According to figures published in a research journal in the United States in 2015, more than 60 million people in India had heart disease, and more than 20 million of them were under 40 years of age.
In other words, about 40% of heart patients in India are under 40 years of age. This is very surprising for Indian citizens.
What are the reasons for the weakening of the hearts of the youth in India?
Experts say that this rate is increasing the fastest in the world in India.
Heart disease was the third leading cause of premature death in 2005, according to Health Data, a global health data collection website. In 2016, they are number one.
Ten or fifteen years ago, heart disease was considered a problem in older people, but the statistics of the past decade tell a different story.
Leading Indian doctor and cardiologist SC Manchanda says that the hearts of the country's youth have become weak.
According to him, a new part of life is at the top of the list of reasons for a weak heart.
He thinks five elements are very important:
Stay up late working on the computer
Smoking, and an increase in smoking
Dr. Manchanda says that in both cases, whether it was Amit, 29, or Vishnu, 21, one of the five factors caused a heart attack.
Amit told the
BBC that he had been smoking since he was 22 years old. By the age of 29, he had become a smoker.
But now, two years after suffering a heart attack, he has given up smoking. And even today they take three medicines a day.
Now there is no such information about Vishnu, but life's troubles are beginning to come into the lives of ordinary children as well. Similarly, students have a habit of eating at the wrong time.
What are the symptoms of heart failure and heart attack?
The symptoms of heart failure and heart attack are given below.
Doctors say that the biggest symptom of a heart attack is severe chest pain. The patient has severe chest pain and feels severe pressure on their chest. However, this does not always happen.
When blood does not reach the heart, a heart attack occurs. This is usually caused by an obstruction in the bloodstream. But sometimes a heart attack doesn't hurt. This is called a silent heart attack.
Heart disease is one of the deadliest diseases in the world. In 2016, 53% of deaths due to various diseases were due to heart disease.
Dr. Agarwal of the Indian Medical Association said, "Usually, women under the age of menopause do not get heart disease.
This is because of the hormones found in these women. Today, however, heart disease is found in women before the age of menopause.
Dr. Reddy of the Public Health Foundation says that if a woman smokes, or has been taking contraceptive pills for a long time, her body's ability to fight heart disease is reduced.
Dr. Reddy says that even five years after menopause, the risk of heart attack in women is equal to that in men.
Numerous research studies have also shown that women do not consider chest pain and usually come a little late for treatment.
