The human body is complicated in its work, and when a problem arises in any functions, it is necessary to look for a problem. Asthenovegetative syndrome is a condition of an organism after long illnesses, during initial restoration or during an overwork of physical or psychological.
During this period, the body is depleted, which can lead to a long rehabilitation. This state gives complications to the nervous system, when the nerve impulses between the central nervous system and the periphery are distorted or even reversed.
Asthenia can affect both children and adults. This is because severe infections and complications can occur at any age. In today's world, many are overworked, which can have a depressing effect on it. This syndrome can be the beginning of serious psychoneurological pathologies.
Lifestyle, excessive fatigue and other causes
Syndrome manifests itself most often due to fatigue, physical and mental stress, environmental variability and conditions of contaminated ecology, lowering of immunity.
All these unfavorable factors that surround a person gradually depress the body, and increasingly simple rest and a favorable environment does not give a full result, and patients are forced to resort to medical methods.
What triggers the emergence of asthenovegetative syndrome:
- Overloads and fatigue are not uncommon in today's living and working conditions, namely they allow to be formed as an asthenic syndrome.
- Injuries, infections, mental fatigue, stress, heavy physical work, unfavorable living and working environment, periodic and frequent sleep, climate change and time zones, drastic changes in the work schedule are some possible causes that affect the body.
- The disorder has the property of developing against the backdrop of pathologies of the body, after a craniocerebral trauma, or due to a violation of the hormonal background.
How it looks from the side of
Asthenic-vegetative syndrome has the characteristic symptoms:
- depression;
- low resistance to stress( change in the direction of lower quality);
- sleep disturbance, insomnia;
- development or exacerbation of psychoneurological disorders, diseases;
- overwork;
- low mental activity, in connection inhibition of brain function;
- low physical activity( difficulty of impulse transmission);
- tachycardia;
- headache( migraine);
- Nervous sweating or chilliness( possible combination of both symptoms);
- lack of air, a pre-unconscious condition.
The state of asthenovegetative syndrome is also manifested in disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, cardiovascular system, respiratory system.
Patients experience discomfort, pain in the body. Also, the syndrome manifests itself in high sensitivity and irritation, the skin is sensitive to irritants.
The organs of sensory perception become highly sensitive. This is due to the fact that temporary damage to parts of the nervous system is characterized by instability in the transmission of impulses and reactions to stimuli, which leads to a certain stupor in the relations of the surrounding world and the organism, and temporary adaptation is required.
How to get rid of the problem?
Treatment of asthenic-vegetative syndrome begins with the definition of the diagnosis, for which it is necessary to consult a doctor, therapist or neurologist, for children-to a pediatrician.
The doctor at the first stages advises non-pharmacological correction: the regime of the day, diet, moderate physical and mental loads, as well as sleep.
The need to exclude exciting and irritating products, for example, containing caffeine, spicy and salty foods, fast food, etc. Indications for use of sedative teas, relaxing baths, relaxation massage.
With prolonged nature of the disease, symptomatic therapy is prescribed: therapeutic manual therapy, mineral baths, electrophoresis, halo chamber, drugs for improving brain activity, vascular tools.
Asthenovegetative syndrome in severe manifestations requires medical intervention. With the development of depressive states, antidepressants and sedatives are used.
For the correction and treatment of the disease - neuroleptics, nootropic, neurometabolite agents, neuroleptic stimulants can be used. In order to prevent self-treatment of severe forms, you should consult a physician and a doctor with a neurologist.
How not to fall into this state?
It is necessary to exclude all possible causes that this syndrome can cause, and if this can not be achieved, then minimize their adverse effects.
Set the mode of work and rest, diet, diet. Rest on the air or nature, engage in moderate physical and mental stress.
Use immunostimulating drugs in diseases, and drink vitamins for the prevention of avitaminosis. In time to discover the causes of the depressed state: overwork, lack of sleep, stress, - and as soon as possible to change the way of life, minimize every adverse factor.
The human body has its own fine structures. Not always the constitution of the human body allows him to work and overexert, each time recovering under the influence of drugs.
Tablets and all possible chemical artificial stimulants lead to addiction to their effects, which can exacerbate not only this condition, but also increase the risk of developing asthenovegetative syndrome.
At the time of use of medications, you should pay attention to the conditions for taking tablets, drugs.
Asthenovegetative syndrome has a property gradually, with rest or a change of labor, to change stages from severe to weak, and vice versa.
It should start with exclusion from the diet of low-quality and harmful foods that produce a negative effect on the body, do not use biologically active additives, energy and alcohol.
Preventive measures with a possible propensity to asthenia should become a way of life.
Light trainings and exercises for physical activity, the use of developing games for thinking mobility, will be useful.
Sometimes the problem is resolved quickly, but if you do not exclude all the negative factors, then the disease will not disappear either. Improving living conditions, psychological comfort, reducing anxiety and preventing diseases, as well as a healthy lifestyle all this minimizes risks.
It is necessary to develop emotional balance, psychological rest, physical relaxation, possible trainings and therapy through communication with animals, cultural values and familiarity with nature.
Asthenovegetative syndrome can be both a consequence of diseases, and the onset of manifestation of certain disorders. This should be taken into account both by doctors and patients.
