in traditional chinese medicine, blood vessel blockage belongs to the category of "blood stasis syndrome". according to traditional chinese medicine, one of the causes of blood vessel blockage is blood stasis. blood stasis may be caused by a variety of factors, such as cold stagnation, qi stagnation, blood heat, etc. blood stasis will make blood flow poor, thus leading to blood vessel blockage.

symptoms of blood vessel blockage may involve multiple parts of the body, including chest pain and tightness, dizziness and headache, limb pain and swelling, weak pulse and low blood pressure, purple lips and facial symptoms. contraindications for blood vessel blockage may include avoiding high-fat diets, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, avoiding sitting for long periods of time, controlling weight, and avoiding excessive stress.

1. chest pain and tightness. when the coronary artery is blocked, the blood supply to the heart may be affected, causing chest pain or angina. this symptom is usually more obvious during physical activity or emotional excitement.

2. dizziness and headache. blood vessel blockage may lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain, causing dizziness, headache, vertigo or unsteady standing. these symptoms are more obvious when waking up in the morning or standing up suddenly.

3. pain and swelling. when the veins are blocked, limb swelling and pain may occur, especially when the thrombus in the lower limb veins breaks off and blocks the pulmonary artery, which may lead to pulmonary embolism, manifested as sudden chest tightness and chest pain.

4. weakened pulse and low blood pressure. if the upper limb artery is blocked, it may cause weakened arterial pulsation and lower blood pressure in the arm. in severe cases, it may cause insufficient blood supply to the brain, resulting in dizziness and unstable standing.
