In the spring, an exacerbation of heart pathologies and diseases of the nervous system can occur.

Neurologist Natalya Pinaeva recalled in an interview that spring with its changeable weather , atmospheric and magnetic fluctuations often becomes a difficult period for people with chronic diseases.

“Any chronic diseases can become aggravated in the spring. But if we talk about neurology, then these are, first of all, cardiovascular pathologies: dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system, vascular encephalopathy, neuroses,” the physician told Izvestia.
According to Natalia Pinaeva, people with neurological disorders often experience fluctuations in blood pressure in the spring (it can rise and fall). The neurologist drew attention to the fact that not against the background of sudden changes in blood pressure, a person becomes prone to headaches, dizziness, as well as a heart attack and stroke.

The approach of spring is associated with harm to health

Also, Pinaeva added, in the spring, many patients complain of exacerbation of chronic joint diseases – arthritis, arthrosis, osteochondrosis. Summing up, the specialist noted that spring is the time of the year when natural, biological restructuring begins, which is reflected in the biological clock, hormonal processes, and the state of the immune system. If the body is weakened or there are chronic processes in it, then it can be more difficult for it to adapt to the ongoing changes – therefore, unfavorable conditions may arise.
