News Topical, Digital Desk : Bee Sting And Heart Attack: Bollywood's famous actress Karisma Kapoor's ex-husband and businessman Sanjay Kapoor died of a heart attack on Thursday. He breathed his last on 12 June in England at the age of 53. The whole family is in shock due to his death. It is being told that he swallowed a bee while playing polo. However, we do not confirm this. Now this question is bothering people's mind that can a bee also cause a heart attack?
According to some reports, if a bee (allergic reaction to bee sting) stings on the external parts of the body, then problems like allergy can occur. Whereas if it goes inside the throat, mouth or windpipe or stings inside, then the situation can get worse. This situation can be fatal at times. In such a situation, allergic reactions are seen immediately. We call this anaphylaxis.
What is Anaphylaxis?
Now the question may be arising in your mind that what is anaphylaxis? This is a life-threatening allergic reaction . In this, the throat gets swollen. At the same time, one may face difficulty in breathing. Blood pressure may suddenly go low. The most dangerous thing is that the heartbeat may stop. In such a situation, if the patient does not get treatment, he may die within a few minutes.
Sanjay Kapoor had swallowed a bee
As in Sanjay Kapoor's case, he swallowed a bee and died of a heart attack shortly after. Now this question must be arising in your mind that can this also cause a heart attack ? According to some reports, a bee sting does not directly cause a heart attack. But if the person has a severe allergic reaction and there is a lack of oxygen or the blood pressure becomes very low, then the heart is stressed. Due to this, heart failure or cardiac arrest can occur.
Connection between sports and heart disease
Reports show that when we play any sport, our body is already in active mode. In such a situation, if someone is a heart patient, the effect of allergic reaction can be even more serious.
What to do if you swallow a bee?
- Go to the nearest hospital immediately.
- If you already have an allergy, get an epinephrine injection immediately.
- Console the patient so that he does not lose courage and can breathe properly.
