Cardiologist, corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, professor, doctor of medical sciences Simon Matskeplishvili spoke about the symptoms of Fabry disease.
In a conversation with the Argumenty i Fakty website, he stated that usually this disease develops gradually – neuropathic pain in the limbs, functional problems with the kidneys and heart occur.
Since childhood, patients may experience heart rhythm disturbances and valvular dysfunction.
The expert called almost complete intolerance to heat and cold an important symptom.
As Matskeplishvili noted, it is almost impossible to identify the disease based on the clinical picture, so a special study is needed.
Previously, neurologist and medical expert Natalya Koryavtseva said that regular physical activity reduces the likelihood of stroke by 20-30%.
