Dyslipidemia Symptoms, Causes, and Treatments.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Symptoms
The dyslipidemia disorder itself does not offer symptoms, but it can be seen with coronary artery diseases and other vascular diseases. The accompanying symptoms may include one or more of the following.
- Shortness of breath known as dyspnea
- Confusion
- Dizziness
- Chest pain from a lack of blood supply to the heart
- Pain in the abdomen from insufficient blood supply to the intestines
- Acute pancreatitis from excess triglycerides levels in the bloodstream
- Difficulty speaking, known as aphasia
- Calf pain while walking
- Walking impairment
- Balance issues
- Corneal arcus disease characterized by a white arc on the cornea
- Heart disease
- Stroke from decreased blood flow to the brain
- Kidney disease
- Deep, painful lumps in tendons of the elbow, Achilles tendon, and knee, known as tendinous xanthomas
Types of Dyslipidemia
Dyslipidemia causes can be isolated into two separate categories, known as primary and secondary.
1. Primary Dyslipidemia Causes
These disorders arise due to genetic factors and are mostly seen in children. Gene mutations attribute to an excess in the cholesterol production.
2. Secondary Dyslipidemia Causes
A secondary dyslipidemia case occurs in adults, as the actions of the patient contribute to the cause. Lifestyle choices are the most common influences. This equates to a sedentary lifestyle that may result in poor nutrition, such as consuming high-fat foods containing saturated fats, cholesterol, and trans fats. These trans fats can be monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fatty acids found in processed and fried food products. Secondary dyslipidemia can be liked to:
- Obesity
- Excessive use of alcohol
- Smoking
- Diabetes
- Kidney disease
- Liver disease
- Hypothyroidism
- Prolonged use of allopathic drugs such as estrogens, corticosteroids, and contraceptives.
Diagnosis
Lipoprotein profile shows the amount of good cholesterol (HDL), bad cholesterol (LDL), and triglycerides. A lipoprotein profile is done by withdrawing blood on an empty stomach and then again three hours later, after eating.
Diagnostic tests are conducted with laboratory tests that measure blood lipid levels. As it is important to determine the lipid levels based on a continuum, periodic testing is advised. Tests will detect the plasma cholesterol levels, individual lipoproteins, and triglycerides of the blood.
Dyslipidemia Treatment
Dyslipidemia treatment is in accordance with your health condition, age, and symptoms experienced. A medical history as well as the family history of heart disease will also be taken into consideration. Doctors may prescribe medication such as statins, which slow down the liver enzymes to prevent a buildup of fatty acids. Fibrates is another drug commonly used with statins to promote an increase in good cholesterol levels. Aside from prescription medications. (I “Dr Qaisar Ahmed” don’t think so, I think we should treat the cause of disease not the symptoms).
Healthy Diet
Consume low-fat, low-calorie, low-cholesterol, and trans-fat free foods. These can include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and fish. Limit amounts of pork meat and avoid deep fried and sugary foods/drinks.
Milk, dairy products and eggs do not increase the Cholesterol levels.
