Why do I feel weak and easily tired even without doing anything?
I don't get strength in my body
without any reason, I feel weak all the time. Can't focus on anything. Why does
this actually happen?
Number
one is Anemia.
We have a type of cell called "Red
Blood Cells" in our blood. They have hemoglobin. What they do is that as we breathe,
take the oxygen from our lungs and deliver it throughout our body.
So the cells in our entire body use
this oxygen to make their food and do various tasks. In other words, their main
source of energy is this oxygen. Now if you have less red blood cells
or hemoglobin in your body then this oxygen transport may also be disrupted, then
you may feel weak.
A few
more Symptoms of Anemia
So now I will tell a few more
symptoms through which you may understand whether you actually have anemia. If you have anemia, along with
weakness or fatigue, you will have shortness of breath. I mean, you may breathe
quickly, but you may feel that it is not enough.
Why? As I said at the beginning, red
blood cells or hemoglobin can't actually distribute enough oxygen from the
lungs. This is causing the body to signal that.
There is a lack of oxygen.
"Give more oxygen." So the
nose is doing it's work, so does the lungs. It's trying to breathe fast. But
the deficit is not being met. So shortness of breath occurs.
At the same time, your heartbeat may
also be somewhat irregular. Meaning that at one time the heartbeat is very
fast. At another time the heartbeat is very slow. Another major symptom is that you
may look a little yellowish.
I mean your skin may be a little
yellower than it used to be, like a little bit of a jaundice patient. You may
also feel dizzy, blurred vision, or your hands and feet may feel cold.
Why
do we get Anemia?
So the question is, why do we get
anemia? It may be a side effect of a drug that you are currently taking. Once
you stop taking this drug, you may get better again.
Another possibility is that there
may be some congenital diseases that cause a deficiency of folic iron, or
vitamin B12 in your body.
Now I will tell you the names of
some foods that may help you overcome iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12
deficiency. If the symptoms of anemia do not go
away even after eating these foods, in that case, you should consult a
doctor.
Like this shrimp, spinach, organ
meat, such as chicken or beef or mutton, lungs, liver, kidneys, meaning the
organs that are found in the body.
Legume products. For example, chickpeas, or red lentils, or mung
bean sprouts, or soybeans.
The
second reason for feeling weak
The second reason for feeling weak
is an imbalance of thyroid hormones. There is a thyroid gland in our
body, and the thyroid hormone is produced from the thyroid gland here. This
thyroid hormone does many important jobs.
One of its jobs is to metabolize. What
is metabolism? Suppose, we are eating all the food, the process of breaking
down this food into energy and heat, this is metabolism.
So, this thyroid hormone is breaking
down food and creating energy.If your thyroid hormone is produced
less, then the process of creating energy from food, that process will be less,
your body will have less energy,
And you will naturally feel weak! Again,
in some cases, it is seen that those whose thyroid hormones are produced too
much. I mean those whose thyroid gland is overactive, may also experience
weakness. How?
High thyroid production means,
metabolism is very high. So the body has to do a lot of work to do a lot of
metabolism, body gets exhausted after doing so much work.
In that case too, it may feel weak. The
chances of you feeling weak due to excessive production of thyroid hormones are
low. The most likely possibility is if your thyroid hormone production is low, meaning
if you have Hypothyroidism.
A few
more symptoms due to hypothyroidism
Now I am telling a few more symptoms
from which you may understand whether your weakness is due to hypothyroidism or
not? Those who have hypothyroidism have more cold sensitivity.
That means, suppose a person is not
feeling any cold, but the one with hypothyroidism is feeling cold. In addition,
your skin may become dry, you may gain weight, and your face
may swell.
Along with this, you may become forgetful. For
example, you may do something, and then you may not be able to remember that
you did that thing. Depression may also be present in
some cases.
So, if you have these symptoms along
with weakness, you need to consult a doctor and fix your thyroid. If you fix
the imbalance of your thyroid, your weakness may also go away.
Reason for feeling weak is lack of adequate sleep.
Various hormones are released during
sleep. Growth hormones repair and create new cells in our various cells. Why do we need these?
Because we do a lot of work
throughout the day, which causes a loss of energy from our body. We repair
those loss through sleep so that we can be ready to work again the next day. Adults
should sleep for 7 hours a day.
However, in many cases, people still
feel weak the next day even after sleeping for 7 hours. This may be because he
did sleep for 7 hours but the quality of their sleep was not good. How can this happen?
For example, you are supposed to go
to bed at 10pm, but you end up going to bed at 3am.In this case, half of your
sleep is spent during the day. During the day, you are not supposed to sleep.
You are supposed to work during the day.
So, this may be one reason. Many
people also have the habit of sleeping during the day. It has been seen that
due to sleeping during the day, their sleep at night is not good.
Again, it has been seen that due to illness or
environmental conditions, the sleep of many people is light or
they wake up after a while. This may also deteriorate the
quality of their sleep.
Reason for feeling weak is chronic pain.
Many people have pain in different
joints, back pain, neck pain, or pain somewhere in the bone. When this pain
becomes chronic, there are several reasons, why people may feel weak. Since they have this kind of pain
and it occurs continuously in their body,
their sleep is not good because they
feel this pain during sleep. Especially, in most cases, it is seen that, at
night, the pain becomes more severe. So, this is why their sleep is
constantly disturbed. Every night, it is seen that their sleep is not good. So
if the sleep is bad then they will naturally feel weak.
Another
feeling weak is for medications side effects
Another reason is that many people
who have such chronic pain take pain medication. Many pain medications side
effects are feeling weak.Another reason is that prolonged
pain can reduce the physical activity of individuals.
Try to observe yourself. If you have neck pain tomorrow,
consider how much movement you did with your daily activities today. Tomorrow,
you will want to minimize the struggle to reduce this pain by moving as little
as possible. For those experiencing chronic pain, practicing reducing physical
activity over time becomes a habit.
That to move as little as possible. And
even if physical activity is reduced, weakness can still occur. To address
weakness due to chronic pain, it is essential to find ways to alleviate the
pain. If you continuously take painkillers on your own, it won't heal the area of that pain.
The reason why you feel the pain,
due to the disease or if there is a fracture somewhere or if there is pain due
to any disease, the disease should be treated so that you do not need to take
this pain medication continuously.
