Dr. Clove is here to answer that question.

I. What is phycotic dysfunction?

Phytoneurological dysfunction, the exact medical name is "somatoform autonomic disorder", commonly known as phytoneurological dysfunction, autonomic disorder, neurosis, etc., refers to a kind of formal disease with only symptomatic manifestations and no substantial organ damage.

Usually, the patient first experiences autonomic arousal: recurrent symptoms such as pain in a variable location, burning, tightness, etc., which have no specific significance, and the personality of these patients tends to be particularly concerned about their own body, and they are relatively stubborn.

Second, what are the causes of the pathogenesis of vegetative dysfunction?

1. Morbidity is often related to psychosocial factors

Psychiatric events, emergencies, etc., social class, economic status, education and occupation have some correlation, more often seen in the social class of the low, economic difficulties, low education and cultural level of the population, engaged in assembly work, piece-meal measurement of the occupation is more common;

The family is an important source of mental stimulation and of support and comfort (social support) from the family when a person is frustrated.

2. Patients often have certain personality traits

People who are emotionally unstable, sensitive, suspicious, or stubborn, for example, are more likely to develop the disease. (These characteristics are psychologically weak or strong and unbalanced in neurotypes.)

3. There may be brainstem reticular filtration dysfunction

Normally, the individual is not able to feel exactly the activity of the internal organs, whereas the patient with this disease is able to feel discomfort in the internal organs, such as tugging pains and wandering, but often vaguely. For this reason it is also often called neurosis.

Third, how will the patient's life be affected?

1, the patient's life will be affected by some

Basically, they can take care of themselves, and their words and behaviors remain within the limits permitted by social norms; however, compared with normal people, although they also insist on studying or working, they often feel strenuous, have low efficiency, poor adaptability, and even make mistakes, and so on.

2. Relatively intact social functions

Refers to an individual's ability to survive, learn, and work, as well as interpersonal skills, relatively intact.

IV. Is the patient self-aware?

The patient is self-aware, but incomplete.

1. Self-knowledge is the awareness of one's own mental state, including the awareness of symptoms; knowing that one is sick; speculating on the cause of the disease; and having one's own knowledge of the factors that lead to relapse, and will offer valuable opinions on the current treatment.

2. The self-knowledge (self-awareness) of patients with somatoform autonomic disorders is incomplete. They will seek medical treatment everywhere, repeatedly examining and repeatedly questioning, actively treating but often changing the treatment plan without authorization.

Phytoneurological disorder refers to the long-term emotional tension, anxiety and depression, so that the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves that govern the normal functioning of the body can not constrain each other and balance, resulting in the body's nerve dysfunction, a variety of dysfunctions, the symptoms of the complexity and variability of the different from person to person.

Common symptoms: 1, precordial pain, panic, chest tightness and shortness of breath, sweating, conscious dyspnea, anxiety and depression, etc., these manifestations are often no regularity, physical examination and electrocardiogram, cardiac ultrasound and other ancillary tests often do not see obvious abnormalities, usually no cardiac organic lesions; 2, gastric and epigastric noisy discomfort, heartburn and acid reflux, nausea and vomiting, burping, dry mouth, bitter mouth, easy to get angry, abdominal pain, diarrhea, defecation Difficulty in defecation, etc.; 3. Dizziness and headache, difficulty in falling asleep or easy to wake up after sleep, drowsiness, weakness of limbs, loss of interest, depressed mood, loss of memory or comprehension, etc. Auxiliary examinations such as cranial CT, cranial magnetic resonance, electroencephalogram, transcranial Doppler, etc. often do not show any obvious abnormality, and all of the above symptoms are exacerbated by emotional fluctuations and stress.

Treatment: timely consultation with a psychiatrist, safe and effective psychological guidance, adjust the mental state, maintain a good mood, so that the body's various nervous systems are coordinated with each other; mild symptoms can be used a small amount of nutritive nerve drugs, such as: glutamine, vitamin B1, but also add a small amount of Derexin to help alleviate the discomfort; for those with serious symptoms, it is necessary to use psychotropic medication, to restore the body's normal physiological functions. However, overdose or long-term use of drugs will produce many side effects, and should be taken correctly under the guidance of a doctor.

Prevention: the best way to deal with the disease is to prevent it in advance, to ensure a good routine, avoid frequent late nights; appropriate physical exercise for those with mild symptoms and short duration has a very good effect, such as: swimming, diving, yoga, Pilates, tai chi, jogging, brisk walking, etc.; avoid spicy and oily diet, sweet and sweet products, to reduce excessive stimulation of the vegetative nerves, can not be more tense because of vegetative disorders, otherwise a vicious circle will be formed. Otherwise, a vicious circle will be formed, resulting in serious consequences.

　　The exact medical name of phytoneurotic dysfunction is "somatoform autonomic nervous disorder". Clinically, patients often have symptoms of cerebral ischemia and hypoxia such as dizziness, numbness of the scalp and limbs, and an increase in the number of slips of the tongue, deterioration of vision, amnesia, and other symptoms of recurring pain in various parts of the brain, burning sensation, and tightness, etc. These symptoms are of no special significance. So, what exactly is the disease of phytoneurological dysfunction?

　　Simply put, phytoneurological dysfunction refers to a form of ailment with only symptomatic manifestations and no substantial organ damage. Mostly due to long-term mental tension, psychological stress, anger and anger and mental stimulation caused by a group of symptom clusters. The personalities of these patients tend to be particularly concerned about their own bodies and are relatively stubborn.

　　Symptoms of vegetative dysfunction can be manifested as follows:

　　I. Easy fatigue, sleepiness and laziness, dullness of mind, pro-bed phenomenon, which cannot be relieved after rest.

　　Second, often feel generalized pain (such as headache, limb pain, peripheral pain, muscle stiffness, etc., especially in the tension), but just can not find out the cause.

　　Third, chest tightness, palpitations, and frequent alternating sweats and chills.

　　Fourth, they are depressed and no longer interested in the things they usually enjoy.

　　Fifth, inattention, forgetfulness, and inability to recall the names of familiar people are the most obvious symptoms of phytoneurotic disorders.

　　Once suffering from phytoneurological dysfunction, we should actively avoid the triggers and do a good job of mental psychotherapy --- this is the main and most effective treatment. This is the most important and effective treatment. That is to say, adjusting the mind, relaxing the spirit, eliminating worries, cultivating an optimistic and open-minded character, and enhancing the confidence of overcoming the disease. Again, focusing on physical exercise, sports can regulate and improve the excitation and inhibition process of the brain, adjust brain function, and delay brain aging. In addition, exercise can obviously change the mood of people, adhere to long-term exercise, can enhance physical fitness, slow down the heart rate, cardiovascular function improvement, autonomic nervous system regulation function enhancement, so that the recovery of plant nervous system function. Drugs can not be blind, must choose the right drug for themselves, so as not to lead to the deterioration of the disease, nourish the heart and brain Ning Shen Tang is a purely traditional Chinese medicine preparations, in the treatment of vegetative nerve disorders has a very good effect.

　　Prevention of disease, to develop good habits, the key is good at self decompression, more outdoor exercise, more participation in social welfare activities, make friends, deal with things frankly, enjoy life.

Dysautonomia, also known as autonomic dysfunction, is a relatively common disorder. Dysautonomia refers to a pair of autonomic nerves, the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, which are called "autonomic nerves" because they are not directly governed by human consciousness and have the ability to regulate themselves, but in fact are indirectly regulated by the higher nervous system of human beings. Normally, the functions of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves are antagonistic to each other, for example: sympathetic nerves can speed up the heart rhythm, while parasympathetic nerves can slow down the heart rhythm; sympathetic nerves can constrict the blood vessels and increase the blood pressure, while parasympathetic nerves can make the blood vessels dilate and lower the blood pressure. Under normal circumstances, the role of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves is in a state of dynamic equilibrium, when this dynamic equilibrium is broken, it is also known as phytoneurotic dysfunction.

There are many causes of phytoneurologic dysfunction, which can be divided into two broad categories: primary and secondary. Primary is mainly due to genetics and neurodegeneration. Secondary conditions often have a clear primary cause of autonomic nerve damage, such as poisoning, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, HIV, and autoimmune diseases. The clinical manifestations of phytoneurological dysfunction are also very varied and unique from patient to patient. The main symptoms include postural hypotension, fatigue, anxiety, bradycardia or tachycardia, insomnia, confusion, dizziness, swallowing disorders, diarrhea, etc. The diagnosis of phytoneurological dysfunction is mainly based on the presence of a specific disease that causes autonomic nerve damage. The diagnosis of phytoneurologic dysfunction is mainly based on autonomic function tests, such as: heart rate variability, adrenocortical function and sweat gland regulation, with which there are many other tests. In terms of treatment, primary phytoneurological disorders are mainly treated symptomatically, while secondary ones are more likely to be treated aggressively against the primary disease.

Finally, it should be pointed out that the diagnosis of phytoneurological dysfunction in China is relatively unstandardized, and many patients with relevant symptoms but no organic cause are diagnosed with this disease, but in fact, many of these patients have underlying psychological disorders rather than phytoneurological dysfunction in the strict sense of the word. Therefore, Dr. Elf suggests that if you are diagnosed with phytoneurotic dysfunction, it is best to go to a more authoritative specialist for a clear diagnosis, so that you can not only get effective treatment, but also not to let some potential diseases be missed and delayed.

When it comes to the disease of phytoneurologic dysfunction, many people may find it relatively unfamiliar, what kind of disease is it? In clinical practice, the disease is also referred to as autonomic dysfunction. Although most people are unfamiliar with this disease, it is actually not a rare disease.

The so-called vegetative nerves mainly refer to the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves. Normally, the functions of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves are often antagonistic to each other and are in a state of dynamic balance. Once the organism is affected by certain factors, this dynamic balance is broken, which will lead to the occurrence of the disease of phytoneurotic dysfunction.

Depending on the cause of the disease, phytoneurologic disorders can be categorized into two main groups: primary and secondary. Generally speaking, primary disorders are mainly due to heredity and neurodegenerative changes that are ultimately caused.In contrast, secondary disorders have a more clearly defined primary disease that causes autonomic nerve damage.

Then what are the main symptoms of phytoneurological dysfunction disease? Common symptoms include: blackness or even fainting when standing up suddenly; panic, palpitation; poor digestion with diarrhea or constipation; excessive or no sweating; sexual dysfunction and so on.

Through the above introduction, I believe that people have a more in-depth understanding of the disease of plant nervous dysfunction. For the treatment of this disease, in the clinic, often for different types of diseases, and then take different treatment measures. Therefore, people need to pay attention to whether the body has the manifestation of phytoneurological dysfunction in daily life, and go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in a timely manner.

I'm a patient of this disease. Not a doctor.

So there's no way to tell you what the hell it is. But I can tell you how I feel.

First attack in early 15. Had previously suffered a pretty big aggression over something and had nowhere to talk about it.

The first time I thought I was done was the sudden near-death feeling. Heart palpitations. Self-measured pulse over 120. but lay down for a few minutes and got better. After that, it happened two or three more times. There was no pattern until the last one. I was just finishing dinner and walking to the hospital entrance. Went in immediately. All kinds of tests. Finally the doctor told me. Except for the rapid heartbeat. I'm fine.

But I didn't dare to walk by myself, and I was afraid that it was really a heart attack. So I was hospitalized, and the next day I had a heart ultrasound, no problem. Then a 24-hour EKG, no problem. Anyway, the only problem was a slight gastritis.

The doctor finally kicked me out, and I was in the cardiovascular ward by the age of 30. I'm a rarity.

When I was leaving, the doctor gave me a diagnosis of vegetative nerve disorder. It doesn't sound like a big disease, but I know how hard it is. Finally, I took psychotropic drugs for a period of time. It's been two years now, and I still have it occasionally. Mainly when I don't rest well.

This condition is a rare name and is not well known to many people.

Causes of morbidity

It is a group of symptoms caused by prolonged mental tension, stress, anger, irritation and so on. When the balance of the vegetative nerves is disturbed, a variety of dysfunctions are produced, which is also known as vegetative nerve dysfunction, also called neurological dysfunction, and so on, caused by the dysfunction of the central nervous system of the brain.

Generally for psychological, social and other reasons caused by part of the physiological function of a short period of time dysfunction, neuroendocrine related changes, but there is no corresponding pathological changes in the structure of the syndromes.

common cause

The most common causes of the disease are genetic, biological, age, social, etc., and there are different clinical manifestations: chest tightness, breath-holding, panic, and a sense of dying; stomach pain, bloating, vomiting, diarrhea, etc.; excessive sweating, headache, dizziness, loss of vision, difficulty in sleeping, forgetfulness, numbness and itching of the skin, and menstrual cramps.

Clinical Characteristics:

There are no significant organic changes in the body, the condition becomes severe or recurrent, and there is mostly anxiety and depression.

Treatment is based on the following modalities:

Improvement of the living and working environment:Must not be in a long time in the tension, heavy work, especially need to pay attention to the combination of work and rest.

Relaxation:Mental relaxation can be achieved by listening to music and appropriate exercise.

Eat healthy:Daily attention should be paid to a reasonable and healthy diet, light is appropriate.

Psychotherapy:If symptoms develop severely, psychotherapeutic options are available.

Medication:If the symptoms are difficult to control, under the guidance of a professional doctor for medication, available Chinese herbs, acupuncture, massage and so on.

vegetative dysfunctionIt is a common condition, especially common in many middle-aged women and those with stressful jobs.Many patients suffer from it.

1. What kind of disease is "vegetative nervous disorder"?

Phytoneurological dysfunction is a psychological disorder that manifests itself as somatic complaints. It is known by many different names, such as: conversion disorder, somatoform disorder, neurosis, and so on.

2. Main manifestations of vegetative nerve dysfunction

The manifestations are diverse and varied, and different people may not necessarily exhibit the same symptoms. The more common manifestations include dizziness, chest tightness, fatigue, palpitations, panic, shortness of breath, insomnia, excessive dreaming, belching, abdominal pain, sweating, numbness of the limbs, fear of cold, irritability, memory loss and so on.

3. Harmful effects of vegetative nerve function disorders

Because of the variety of symptoms and the long duration of the disease, even decades in some cases, phytoneurological dysfunction seriously jeopardizes the physical and mental health of the patients, leading to anxiety, depression, and serious loss of work and self-care ability. At the same time, the long period of seeking medical treatment from all over the world puts a huge burden on the psychology, economy and life of the individual and the whole family.

4. What to do about vegetative nerve dysfunction

First of all, it is necessary to go to a regular medical institution, conduct a comprehensive examination, and exclude organic diseases to make a correct diagnosis of mental illness.

Secondly, we should believe in the doctor's diagnosis, adhere to standardized treatment, this disease is not a short time can be cured, need long-term treatment and follow-up. In addition to oral glutamine, antidepressants and other treatments for serious illnesses, you can also cooperate with psychotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine and other comprehensive treatment.

Finally, there is also the care of the family and society. This is a psychological disease, and the warmth and love of the family and the understanding and help of the society will help the disease to get better and cured as soon as possible.

Phytoneurological dysfunction, sometimes called phytoneurotic dysfunction, is a medical term that we often hear. Take my own example, some time ago, work pressure, quite anxious, sleep is not good, digestive function seems to be weakened, go to the hospital, the doctor said it is the plant nerve dysfunction. In fact, this kind of sub-health state is very common in the modern fast-paced life. What exactly is phytoneurological dysfunction?

China's traditional culture emphasizes the balance of yin and yang, in fact, the vegetative nerves are also divided into "yang" and "yin" two types of nerves, i.e., sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves. The functions of the two types of nerves are very different. The sympathetic nerves make our body state become "excited", while the parasympathetic nerves make us become "relaxed", formally these two types of nerves are coordinated with each other and co-dominated by each other, and our body is in the state of yin and yang balance. The two nerves coordinate and work together to keep our body in a balanced state of yin and yang. If the yin and yang side is too strong, then our balance will be broken, for example, long time work pressure leads to mental tension and excitement, blood pressure rises, heartbeat speeds up, respiration speeds up, indigestion and so on, which is the vegetative nerve dysfunction. Phytoneurological dysfunction will affect many systems of our body, such as cardiovascular system, endocrine system, respiratory system, digestive system, genitourinary system, etc. We will have symptoms such as chest tightness, palpitation, panic attacks, gastric distention, vomiting, dizziness, insomnia, forgetfulness and so on.

What should we do when we have vegetative dysfunction? First of all, we should get rid of some triggering factors, such as excessive fatigue, drinking too much strong tea or coffee, and in addition, we should develop a scientific and reasonable lifestyle and diet, and most importantly, pay attention to the self-regulation of emotions, and if necessary, we should seek the help of medical and health care institutions, and we can improve the state of phytorenal dysfunction through medication and psychotherapy.

I used to have this disease more than 10 years ago and it was very painful. Panic heartbeat, insomnia, anxiety, fear, anorexia, wandering pain, went to the hospital and the doctor's conclusion was neurosis, at that time I didn't believe it at all, always thought it was something wrong with my heart. I took heart medication every day. I changed hospitals to do a variety of tests, cardiac ultrasound, twenty-four-hour dynamic results are still dysfunctional. I had no choice but to face it. At that time every day to eat glutamine, a large number of vitamin B1B6 see a psychiatrist, often and friends rally. Almost half a year later gradually improved. In fact, this disease is mainly to have a good mindset, do not think too much, what is not happy more and family and friends to talk about. If you have time, you should exercise more. Many years have passed, occasionally still a small hair, but when you know how to control it is no longer afraid.
