Al-Marsad Newspaper – Dr. Tanmay Yarmal Jain, an Indian Consultant Cardiologist at Manipal Kharadi Hospitals, has recently shed light on the various diseases and conditions associated with high levels of cholesterol in the blood. In a recent interview, Dr. Jain emphasized the importance of recognizing the symptoms and understanding the risk factors that contribute to the accumulation of cholesterol in the body.
According to Dr. Jain, one of the primary factors that lead to elevated cholesterol levels is a diet rich in fats. He also pointed out that smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, lack of physical activity, and weight gain are significant contributors to this problem. These factors, when combined, can lead to the blockage of blood vessels, posing serious health risks such as heart attacks or strokes, as reported by the “Times of India” website.
To help individuals identify potential cases of high cholesterol, Dr. Jain highlighted several common symptoms. These symptoms may indicate the presence of high cholesterol levels in the body and signal the need for medical attention.
1. Traumatic injury: High cholesterol may manifest as painful fingers and toes. The accumulation of cholesterol in the blood vessels of the hands and legs can cause these extremities to become sensitive and painful to the touch.
2. Tingling in the fingers and toes: Dr. Jain mentioned that tingling sensations in the fingers and toes could also be a sign of high cholesterol levels in the blood.
3. Yellow deposits (Xanthelasma): An excess of cholesterol can result in the formation of yellow deposits on the skin, particularly around the eyes. These deposits, known as Xanthelasma, may also appear on the palms of the hands and the back of the legs.
4. Yellow and orange deposits on the eyes: Dr. Jain drew attention to small growths or deposits with yellow and orange pigmentation that may develop on the upper eyelids, palms of the hands, or lower part of the leg. These deposits can signify elevated cholesterol levels.
Dr. Jain further emphasized that the buildup of fatty deposits in the body, along with high cholesterol and blood triglyceride levels, significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular and neurological diseases in patients. He stressed the importance of regular check-ups to monitor cholesterol levels and adopt a healthy lifestyle to mitigate the risks associated with high cholesterol.
In conclusion, Dr. Tanmay Yarmal Jain, a well-respected Indian Consultant Cardiologist, has called attention to the dangers and symptoms associated with high cholesterol levels. By recognizing the signs and addressing the risk factors, individuals can proactively take steps to maintain their cardiovascular health and prevent potentially life-threatening conditions.]
