How is cor pulmonale formed and how can it be cured?

Pulmonary heart disease is usually caused by chronic bronchitis, which gradually develops into emphysema. Emphysema is caused by bronchial stenosis caused by chronic bronchitis, which makes it difficult to discharge carbon dioxide from the lungs. Long-term carbon dioxide stays in the lungs, causing alveolar pressure to increase, alveolar swelling, and long-term alveolar swelling, just like the long-term tension of the rubber tendon, the decrease of the elasticity of the rubber tendon and the decrease of the elasticity of the alveoli. The elasticity of alveoli decreases, and the contractility of alveoli decreases, which leads to more carbon dioxide stagnation in the lungs and further aggravates emphysema. This is a process of mutual influence and vicious circle. Due to the swelling of alveoli, the pressure of the whole lung increases, and the blood of the heart enters the lung for gas exchange (expelling carbon dioxide from the blood and inhaling oxygen from the mouth into the lung). In this way, the blood vessels entering the lungs from the heart are compressed, and it takes a lot of contraction force for the heart to pump blood into the lungs. In the long run, the heart has to work overtime to pump blood into the lungs, which makes the myocardium tired and finally forms heart failure (heart failure, that is, heart disease). For the treatment of cor pulmonale, we should first control the inflammation of bronchi, so that bronchitis will no longer develop. When bronchitis breaks out, we should treat it in time, avoid catching cold, quit smoking and drinking, and exercise properly. When you have heart failure (severe wheezing, swollen face and feet, flustered after a little activity, unable to breathe, etc.), go to the hospital for treatment in time, and don't delay! I wish you an early recovery!
