With just one ice pack you can immediately know if you have cardiovascular problems or not

Do you believe that with only 30 seconds and easy-to-find items in the home, you can do a cardiac self-examination?

The heart is an extremely important organ of the body but is rarely cared for. Because of this, many people who experience problems around the heart area are often subjective, not actively taking exams or checking. If you want to know if your heart is healthy, try the quick experiment below.

Steps to follow

The first step

Use a basin large enough to fit both of your hands to hold cold water. You can add more stones for better results.

The second step

Put your hand in the water with ice cubes for exactly 30 seconds. This will help you know how your blood responds to colds.

Put your hands in cold water and count down for 30 seconds. This method will tell you how the blood condition responds to cold water.

Result

Fingers red

If your finger is red, this is good news. It means you have no problems related to oxygen in the blood. Blood flows smoothly and smoothly between the vessels as well as the heart.

Fingers pale, cyanotic

If your fingertips become pale or cyanotic (bluish discoloration), you may have circulation problems. This happens when red blood cells have low levels of oxygen, or you have problems when blood carries oxygen throughout the body.

In this case, you can warm or massage the area to return to normal. If possible, see a reputable medical center to check your health. You should also call for emergency help if your hands are bluish with the following signs:

1. Gasp
2. Fever
3. Headache
4. Chest pain
5. Sweat
6. Numbness in arms, legs, fingers or toes
7. Dizziness or fainting
