Mental stress may cause angina pectoris.
However, generally speaking, if a patient experiences mental stress only occasionally, it will not stimulate the heart and induce angina pectoris. Prolonged mental stress can increase the excitability of the sympathetic nerves, affecting the blood supply to the coronary arteries, leading to myocardial ischemia, hypoxia, and other phenomena. In severe cases, it may also be accompanied by chest tightness, shortness of breath, and other symptoms. It is recommended that patients adjust their mindset in time, avoid excessive anxiety or tension, and if necessary, take medication such as Propranolol Hydrochloride Tablets or Nifedipine Sustained-release Tablets under the doctor's advice. However, if mental stress occurs only occasionally, it usually does not cause significant harm to the body and does not induce angina pectoris. Therefore, there is no need for excessive concern or special treatment. Symptoms can be improved by listening to soothing music. In daily life, it is also important to pay attention to healthy eating, trying to consume light foods such as millet porridge and fruit salad. Additionally, establish good sleep habits, ensure sufficient sleep time, and avoid staying up late for extended periods. Furthermore, moderate exercise such as jogging and Tai Chi can help enhance physical fitness and improve disease resistance. If any significant discomfort occurs during this period, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly to avoid delay in treatment.
