Any unusual signs in the body can be a warning sign of illness, even a dangerous disease. Therefore, if you experience the following symptoms, you should see a doctor as soon as possible.

Below are 5 unusual signs you need to pay attention to in order to detect the disease early and treat it promptly.

1. Lumbar pain

Lower back pain can be a warning sign of many diseases, especially diseases of the bladder and appendages. If you often have lower back pain, do not ignore the suspicion of cystitis or appendage inflammation, gynecological diseases.

When you have pain in the lumbar region, you may have difficulty bending down, lifting heavy objects... Some patients even feel cold.

Acute low back pain can also be caused by incorrect standing, sitting or moving posture. At this time, the shift of mass in the disc along with stimulation of the posterior longitudinal ligament causes pain.

If you have acute back pain due to incorrect posture, you can lie on a hard bed to help your body gradually regain its "standard" posture and reduce the pain. In case your back pain is not due to incorrect posture, you need to do tests to find out the cause.

2. Becoming unusually sensitive

You notice a huge change in yourself, you become more sensitive than usual, you can cry for any reason or feel extremely sentimental... If these things are completely unusual, not like your normal personality, then you should consider the possibility of hypothyroidism.

The central nervous system is very sensitive to the phenomenon of stopping the secretion of thyroid hormones, so when the thyroid gland is impaired, the central nervous system is affected first. It no longer controls the function of the organs in the body well, especially the sensory nervous system. As a result, you are very sensitive, cry easily, have insomnia, lose weight, and have menstrual disorders, while still eating normally.

3. Often dizzy, lightheaded

If you often experience dizziness, accompanied by lightheadedness, dizziness, and a feeling of fainting... then you should be aware of the risk of temporary cerebral ischemia. The cause of temporary cerebral ischemia can be due to low blood pressure, arrhythmia, excessive stress... In these cases, the body's circulation is obstructed, so the blood and oxygen supplied to the brain is not enough.

Vertigo often occurs in attacks, short as a few minutes, long as a few days or weeks. Recurring attacks often make the patient in a constant state of anxiety and fear.

Although most cases of dizziness are benign, there are also cases of dizziness that are life-threatening symptoms such as: acute bleeding, myocardial infarction, pneumonia and other systemic infections, aortic stenosis, arrhythmia, brain tumors, side effects of drugs, depression, neuritis... Therefore, if you often experience these symptoms, you need to see a doctor soon.

4. Sudden twitching of limbs

The symptom of spontaneous limb twitching for a few minutes is most commonly seen in people with low calcium in the blood (hypocalcemia). Calcium is an essential mineral in the body, it plays a very important role in many body activities such as participating in muscle contraction, nerve conduction, blood clotting...

When the calcium level in the blood is low, the patient may experience symptoms such as numbness of the lips, tongue, fingertips, and toes. This is followed by muscle contractions in the arms, legs, and throughout the body. Hypocalcemia can also cause painful muscle spasms in the face and throughout the body.

To prevent this phenomenon, you need to supplement enough calcium for your body. You can supplement calcium from milk, liver and seafood such as clams, oysters...

5. Hot, itchy and numb legs

This could be a sign of diabetes. If you suddenly feel hot, itchy and numb in your legs, it could be because your blood sugar levels are rising. In addition, people with diabetes often experience symptoms such as frequent urination, hunger, thirst, sudden weight loss, fatigue, blurred vision, etc.

If these symptoms occur repeatedly, you need to see a doctor soon for the most accurate diagnosis.
