heart circulation - #18850

Anonymously

I’ve been experiencing some discomfort in my chest and occasional dizziness, especially after physical activity, and I’m starting to worry that it might be related to my heart circulation. I’ve heard that poor circulation can cause these symptoms, but I’m not sure exactly what to look out for or what can be done about it. Could you explain what happens when there’s a problem with heart circulation, and what signs I should be paying attention to? From what I understand, heart circulation involves the flow of blood throughout the body, but I’m not clear on how poor circulation affects the body. Does poor circulation always cause pain or discomfort, or can it be a more subtle issue, like fatigue or weakness? I’m concerned that the dizziness I feel after exercise might be related to poor circulation—could that be the case, and how do I know for sure? I’ve also heard that poor circulation can contribute to other health problems, like high blood pressure or even heart disease. If I’m having circulation issues, could it mean that I’m at risk for other more serious heart problems? How can I tell if my symptoms are simply related to circulation, or if there’s an underlying heart condition I should be worried about? What tests or diagnostic procedures would you recommend to check for circulation problems? Would I need blood tests, an ultrasound, or perhaps a stress test to assess my heart’s ability to circulate blood efficiently? Are there any lifestyle changes, such as changes in diet or exercise, that can improve my circulation and reduce my risk of developing heart-related issues in the future? Lastly, I’m wondering what treatments are available for improving heart circulation. If poor circulation is detected, would medications be needed, or would lifestyle changes, such as exercise and diet improvements, be enough to resolve the issue? If you have any advice on improving circulation and preventing related health concerns, I’d really appreciate your guidance.

I'm glad you're reaching out about these concerns, as chest discomfort and dizziness can indicate a need for careful evaluation. In Ayurveda, issues related to heart circulation often relate to imbalances in the doshas, particularly excessive Vata, which can create dryness and constriction, affecting the flow of blood and nutrients. Besides discomfort and dizziness, poor circulation can be more subtle, presenting as fatigue, weakness, cold extremities, or even numbness in the limbs. Dizziness post-exercise could indeed relate to circulation, but it may also indicate other factors, including dehydration or low blood pressure. It's crucial to differentiate these symptoms from potential heart conditions that require medical attention. Please consider seeking an evaluation from a medical professional for tests like an electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiogram, or blood tests to rule out issues like arrhythmia or anemia. Lifestyle changes can profoundly impact circulation; aim for a balanced, whole-food diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats, while minimizing processed foods and sugars. Specifically, include ginger, turmeric, garlic, and black pepper, which improve circulation. Regular moderate exercise, such as walking or yoga, can help, but listen to your body and avoid intense workouts until you're fully assessed. You might also benefit from Ayurvedic herbs like Arjuna and Guggulu, known for their cardiac and circulatory benefits, but please consult a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized recommendations. Ensure your hydration levels are optimal, and consider stress-reduction techniques like meditation or pranayama. Monitoring your symptoms closely and evaluating your lifestyle will be essential in enhancing your heart health and circulation.

Hi Mona, Have you ruled out any involvement of ear or neck especially the cervical region, as usually dizziness can also be associated with inner ear imbalances or cervical pathologies. Hb is slightly low but may not cause severe dizziness. When did the symptoms start exactly?

Your symptoms of dizziness, leg pain, fatigue, and eye floaters indicate that your body might be experiencing weakness and poor circulation. Since your hemoglobin is 11, it is slightly lower than the optimal range, which can contribute to these issues. 1. Ashwagandha Capsules – 1 capsule once a day with milk or warm water 2. Drakshasava – 2 tablespoons with equal water after meals, twice a day Eat leafy greens, dates, pomegranate, and jaggery Avoid tea, coffee, and processed foods Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated Get enough sleep and manage stress with meditation or deep breathing Engage in light physical activity like walking .practice pranayama and Surya Namaskar Let me know after 7 days if symptoms doesn’t subsidie with following the above we can go for other investigations

Hi Mona, I'm sorry you're feeling this way. To better understand, do you experience dizziness while standing up, or does it happen throughout the day? Do you have any other symptoms, like headaches, blurred vision, or trouble concentrating? Also, does your fatigue worsen at certain times of the day? With a hemoglobin level of 11, you may have mild anemia, which could be contributing to your dizziness and fatigue. To boost iron levels, try consuming Guduchi (Tinospora) and Ashwagandha, which can help support overall energy. Additionally, Amla (Indian gooseberry) can improve your iron absorption. For eye floaters, Triphala may help maintain eye health. To reduce tension, try deep breathing exercises, and ensure you’re eating iron-rich foods like spinach, lentils, and beets. Always consult with a healthcare provider to ensure a comprehensive treatment plan.
