Dr. Layal Abdallah on Instagram‎: "More and more young adults are ending up in ERs with heart issues.

Why? Smoking, fast food, stress, bad sleep, and skipping checkups are silently damaging your arteries.
And if you have a genetic condition like familial hypercholesterolemia, the risk starts even earlier.
Your heart doesn’t wait until you’re old to fail; take care of it now.

💉 Check your blood pressure
🧬 Know your cholesterol
🛌 Fix your sleep
🥗 Eat clean
🚭 Quit smoking

—————————————————————————————

عدد كبير من الشباب عم بيعانوا من مشاكل بالقلب قبل عمر الـ٣٥!
تدخين، أكل سريع، ضغط نفسي، سهر… كلها عوامل عم تسرّع تلف الشرايين.
وإذا عندك عامل وراثي متل الكولسترول العائلي، الخطر بيبدأ بكير.
قلبك ما بينطر لتكبر، اهتم فيه من هلق:
💉 راقب ضغطك
🧬 افحص دهنياتك
🛌 نام منيح
🥗 كل صحي
🚭 وقّف دخان"‎

Dr. Layal Abdallah on Instagram‎: "انخفاض ضغط الدم إلو أسباب كتيرة،  من الجفاف والأدوية، لمشاكل بالقلب أو الهرمونات.

مش دايمًا بيكون خطير، بس إذا ترافق مع دوخة أو إغماء أو تعب غير مبرر، ما لازم ينسكت عنه. التقييم الطبي بيفرق بين الحالة البسيطة والحالة يلي بدها متابعة.

راقب ضغطك، إشرب مي كفاية، وإذا حسّيت بشي مش طبيعي استشير طبيبك.

Low blood pressure can have many causes; from dehydration and medications to heart or hormonal conditions.

While it isn’t always dangerous, symptoms like dizziness, fainting, or unusual fatigue should never be ignored. Proper evaluation helps determine when it’s harmless and when it needs attention.

Monitor your numbers, stay well hydrated, and seek medical advice if something doesn’t feel right.

Dr. Layal Abdallah on Instagram‎: "Did you know that diabetes doesn't just affect your blood sugar—it’s one of the biggest threats to your arteries? 🩸💔

Chronically high blood sugar acts like sandpaper on your blood vessels. It causes inflammation in the arterial walls, leading to dangerous fat buildup and a loss of arterial elasticity.

Because of this, patients with diabetes have a 2 to 3 times higher risk of suffering from blood clots and heart attacks.

هل كنت بتعرف إنو مرض السكري مش بس بيأثر ع نسبة السكر بالدم، بل هو من أكبر التهديدات لشرايين قلبك؟ 🩸💔

ارتفاع السكر المستمر بيعمل التهاب بجدران الشرايين من جوا، وهالشي بيسهّل تراكم الدهون والكوليسترول وبيفقد الشرايين مرونتها.

النتيجة؟ مريض السكري معرّض لخطر الإصابة بالجلطات القلبية بمعدل ضعفين لـ 3 أضعاف مقارنة بغيره!

Dr. Layal Abdallah on Instagram: "Do you constantly feel freezing cold or unusually hot? Your heart might be trying to tell you something.

When your heart isn't pumping blood efficiently, or your blood pressure is very low, your body struggles to regulate its core temperature. This means less warm blood reaches your extremities like your hands and feet.

Additionally, certain heart medications (like beta-blockers) can actually increase your sensitivity to the cold!

⚠️ When to pay attention: Do not ignore these temperature swings if they are accompanied by:

✔ Unexplained fatigue
✔ Shortness of breath
✔ Dizziness

Listen to your body and check in with your doctor to make sure your heart and your medications are perfectly balanced.
